User talk:Rdh~enwiki

wikipedia

wikipedia is a free encyclopedia that anybody can edit. This means we have millions of articles written by tens of thousands of articles, included in that number are a large number of highly educated professionals and highly intelligent interested editors. Sadly, that also means a few unreasonable users who dislike wikipedia and who think vandalsing the site and creating pointless articles is a good idea. Instead of writing this message on your user talk, I could be editing an article, but instead I've had to flag up one of your articles for deletion as it is spam and type this message in the vain hope it'll persuade you to stop creating problems for responsible editors and admins to deal with.

Thank you for experimenting with Wikipedia. Your test worked, and the page that you created has been or soon will be deleted. Please use the sandbox for any other tests you want to do. Take a look at the welcome page if you would like to learn more about contributing to our encyclopedia. AA Milne 17:27, 10 October 2006 (UTC)

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 Rdh. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Rdh~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 02:20, 20 March 2015 (UTC)
