User talk:Valeren~enwiki

Greetings, Valeren. Some time ago you added some material to Phocus about a metamorphosis story involving a seal. . Can you give a reference? I can't find the story on Perseus. Thanks, Fut.Perf. ☼ 08:44, 28 October 2007 (UTC)
 * P.S.: Same goes for all your other additions to Greek mythological stories you made in February. I can't verify a single one of them. Fut.Perf. ☼ 09:10, 28 October 2007 (UTC)
 * I was studing some of ancient scholia at the University of Leiden at the time. The references I made are from the Scholia on Homer's Odyssey and Pindar's Odes, and the Byzantine Tzetzes commentaries on Homer. Although the information I added months ago. I would need to check the works again to find the exact references. The scholia are only available in Greek, published in mid C19th collections. I'm not aware of any online sources -- perseus.tufts.edu does not have any of scholia or Byzantine commentaries. --Valeren 11:10, 28 October 2007 (UTC)
 * BTW The Smith dictionary is quite good but only provides a broad outline, the scholia is particularly abbreviated, e.g. the Phocus metamorphosis myth is passed over in the entry you referred to in the article. --Valeren 11:20, 28 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Hey, thanks for the prompt reply! :-) The Tzetzes commentaries might be in the Thesaurus Linguae Graecae though, right? Fut.Perf. ☼ 11:35, 28 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Yes, I think some of Tzetzes is available through the TLG. Is there general access now to the database? I thought it was only available through university subscription. All the same, I much prefer flicking through paper! :) --Valeren 13:44, 28 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I think it's only through university subscription. I might get a chance checking on Monday, if you tell me what to look out for. Fut.Perf. ☼ 14:47, 28 October 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 Valeren. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Valeren~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 03:29, 20 March 2015 (UTC)
