Saint Martin's Cathedral
Hi. Please don't unilaterally move a page without any discussion. In this case, cathedral is used more often in English than church. Try Googling 'saint martin ypres' and 75% of the results use 'cathedral'. Also, as explained in the article, many former cathedrals (proto-cathedrals) still keep the term 'cathedral' in their name in common use. - Oreo Priest  talk 00:03, 4 February 2011 (UTC)
 * Hi! I know it may still be used by mistake, but Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, so should use the correct current name of things. Off course, within the article it can be stated that it used to be a cathedral, but the title should be consistent with its current name (just as in the dutch version of WIkipedia). Kind regards, --Speha702 (talk) 12:46, 22 August 2011 (UTC)
 * Once again, you moved the page without any discussion. Please always discuss potentially controversial moves before moving a page, as unilateral moves are both against Wikipedia policy and not a nice thing to do.  Oreo Priest  talk 15:48, 28 August 2011 (UTC)
 * I'm sorry but as I said, Widipedia is and encyclopedia and should give the CORRECT CURRENT information. Indeed, within the article itself we can state that some people still used the dated! term (not a cathedral anymore for 200 years!), but the title of the article should be correct, as it is in the dutch version as well! So please correct this, with a reference to the term 'cathedral' within the text itself. It's not my intention to do something wrong, I just want to help with the correct current names.

Sorry about the revert
In the software program I use for detecting vandalism, Ieper with the I looks the same as leper with the L and I thought you wrote Leper. Sorry about that. Alanl (talk) 13:29, 22 August 2011 (UTC)

Ok, no prob! --Speha702 (talk) 13:56, 22 August 2011 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for January 15
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Saint Martin's Church (Ieper), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Church (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

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 Speha702. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Speha702~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 03:07, 20 March 2015 (UTC)

ArbCom elections are now open!
Hi, You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

Europe 10,000 Challenge invite
Hi. The WikiProject Europe/The 10,000 Challenge has recently started, based on the UK/Ireland The 10,000 Challenge. The idea is not to record every minor edit, but to create a momentum to motivate editors to produce good content improvements and creations and inspire people to work on more countries than they might otherwise work on. There's also the possibility of establishing smaller country or regional challenges for places like Germany, Italy, the Benelux countries, Iberian Peninsula, Romania, Slovenia etc, much like The 1000 Challenge (Nordic). For this to really work we need diversity and exciting content and editors from a broad range of countries regularly contributing. If you would like to see masses of articles being improved for Europe and your specialist country like WikiProject Africa/The Africa Destubathon, sign up today and once the challenge starts a contest can be organized. This is a way we can target every country of Europe, and steadily vastly improve the encyclopedia. We need numbers to make this work so consider signing up as a participant and also sign under any country sub challenge on the page that you might contribute to! Thank you. --MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 21:09, 7 November 2016 (UTC)
