User talk:Tgirl~enwiki

tgirl was an unfortunate choice of name; I should have done a bit of research first!

It consists of my initials (TG) and country (IRL), but of course no sooner had I registered it, the "girl" part became apparent. Then, a tiny bit of web-searching uncovered an actual meaning for tgirl - it seems to indicate a member of the transsexual community! I am very happily male, and have no interest in switching sex!

Oh well. I suppose I'd better let this name lapse, and put a bit of time into thinking of a new one.

 * lol. You can get a bureaucrat to change your name. "TG IRL" would even be a good choice, it'd split up the girl part and make it look more like an abbreviation. Anyway, see Changing_username, and Welcome!

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 Tgirl. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Tgirl~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 03:19, 20 March 2015 (UTC)
