User talk:Tomem~enwiki

I gather this is a page for messages and comments...

My interest in wikis has been growing and took a recent jump when I played around with a Mac shareware application called VoodooPad. This creates a desktop personal wiki, which is one way to not organize a personal information manager. I never knew maintaining hyperlinks could be so easy. --TomEM 23:31, 21 August 2006 (UTC)

I used to be a HyperCard enthusiast, mostly for personal information management, but this was back before the internet made HyperCard look very limited and private, in contrast with the web. It appears to me that wikis represent a return of the HyperCard stack for online communal use, which is wonderful. So far, however, it doesn't seem to have gotten at the code object part of HyperCard, in which every object can contain code. I'm sure this will come in time and indeed, VoodooPad allows for links to scripts of various kinds, or they can be installed as menu items. I look forward to seeing the full promise of a networked HyperCard coming to fruition, a huge clearinghouse of procedures and algorithms, akin to Wikipedia, but for a different kind of knowledge... --TomEM 23:31, 21 August 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 Tomem. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Tomem~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 03:10, 20 March 2015 (UTC)
