Betterware
Hello,, and welcome to Wikipedia. An article you recently created, Betterware, was recently speedily deleted because its content is clearly written to promote a company, product, or service. Keep in mind that Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, not an advertising service. Feel free to ask me on my user talk page if you have any questions. Thank you. -- Merope Talk 16:55, 10 October 2006 (UTC)

Another reason why I deleted it is because there was no evidence that the company was notable. If you can provide citations from reliable sources indicating the company's notability, then perhaps it can be recreated. -- Merope Talk 17:05, 10 October 2006 (UTC)

Okay; thanks. I will address this tomorrow.

Er, sorry about the delay, I've been rather busy. At least this is a trendy issue now, with first the main (criminal) rival company's page, Kleeneze being booted off, then put back as it's Swindon HQ went bust last week.

BBC2's Working Lunch did a feature on Betterware in 2004. I don't know the exact date, and there is no direct URL for programmes older than a month or so. The feature examined the company's working methods and employment method, which I believe it invented (since much copied).

I'll rumage through internal newsletters for other references.

Your account will be renamed
Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called REH. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name REH~enwiki that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name. If you think you might own all of the accounts with this name and this message is in error, please visit Special:MergeAccount to check and attach all of your accounts to prevent them from being renamed.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yours, Keegan Peterzell Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation 02:15, 20 March 2015 (UTC)
