Cloud computing
Hi there,

Thanks for the feedback about the cloud computing article. The usual process for making changes to referenced content is to tag is with fact or cn (citation needed) - there are a bunch of others for failed validation and so on (e.g. in this case where you say the ref didn't support the claim). If no reference supporting the claim is found within a reasonable (and usally reasonably long) time then the claim can be removed. If it's nonsense or vandalism then it can obviously be removed immediately. Most of the reversions are external link spam or redlinks (that is links to articles that don't yet exist).

Anyway always happy to have new editors on board so let me know if there's anything you need. I've added the menu so you can read up on the various policies and procedures - start with WP:5P perhaps.

Did you say you've got a PhD? For better or worse that doesn't mean much here, and it's not a democracy either but we do have a consensus system which works reasonably well most of the time. -- samj in out 03:13, 11 March 2009 (UTC)


 * Regarding your promise/threat to "resubmit a completely rewritten article", don't bother as it should be obvious that this is not how collaborative content/Wikipedia works. For the rest I'm tempted to say WP:TLDR but I did and while you raise some interesting points, when you read our policies you will see that there is no point identifying blog references (particularly when they are also well know opinion pieces) and I'm not sure what interest a book that hasn't been published yet is. -- samj in out 04:52, 11 March 2009 (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 Sariman. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Sariman~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 02:36, 20 March 2015 (UTC)
