Cut and paste moves
Please do not move articles by using cut and paste as this does not preserve the edit history. You are correct that (as a normal user) you can't move one page on top of an existing page, you need to request that an administrator move it for you at Requested moves (WP:RM). I've merged the page histories of London Underground 2005 Stock and London Underground 2009 Stock, so don't worry about it, but note it for the future. See Help:Moving a page for more (and explained better!). Thryduulf

Err, since it doesn't contravene any of the restrictions listed on that page, I fail to see why - have appealed via email. --Stalinism 11:47, 17 January 2007 (UTC)


 * Users are recommended to avoid any other names that may be seen as potentially offensive, or endorsing or opposing the politics, policies or beliefs of a public figure. Please non't pretend that you don't know that "stalinism" evokes hatred in quite a few people. User name is to identify you, not to state your political affiliations. If you ever edit topics related to any kind of politics, your name will be like a red rug for a bull, which hardly be helpful for unbiased treatment of your contributions.
 * Sorry, we already have enough drama in wikipedia. `'mikka 19:29, 17 January 2007 (UTC)

Since you seem to disagree with my evaluation, I moved the issue to a broader discussion in Requests for comment/User names. `'mikka 19:37, 17 January 2007 (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 Stalinism. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Stalinism~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 03:09, 20 March 2015 (UTC)
