 * Howdy. One thing you should know- we need information to be available from reputable sources.  What you're talking about above sounds a bit like original research.  Since this is an encyclopedia, not a primary or secondary source, we need information to first be published in a reliable source before it can be used here.   Friday (talk) 16:05, 26 July 2006 (UTC)

Re William I / Pieter Velders
Hello,

No problem with adding stuff here, but you should consider a few things:
 * 1) Please read Manual of Style, or at least glance through. Reading other articles will help to get some idea on how articles should look like. One big no-no is all-capital title...
 * 2) Please consider how your additions integrate to the rest of the articles. Talking about some random unrelated person, out of blue, is a bit unfitting considering the article. The addition to the William I article was a bit... shall we say, sidetracking.
 * 3) Don't be offended by the nonsense bit. I don't think it was patent nonsense as it's defined in WP ("patent nonsense" being garbage that no one can ever make any sense of, like as in if someone sat on keyboard or something), but the article was really... uh, let me put it this way: When you look at any article, it should tell the reader who this person is, what s/he did, and why should we care. If it fails to tell this, it will just confuse people. Sometimes, this is deletable due to lack of context.
 * 4) Please also consider the biographical guidelines. Some admins speedy-deleted this as a nonnotable biography, and I'm personally kind of leaning on that direction.
 * 5) You undoubtedly have sources; The silly thing is, they should be mentioned in the article. Even one lead would help. Has this person mentioned in a book? Well, just list them. =)

Anyway, don't be disappointed, quite a few people have rocky starts but turn out all right. Happy editing! =) --wwwwolf (barks/growls) 16:26, 26 July 2006 (UTC)

Re: Post on My Talk Page
Hello. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( &#126;&#126;&#126;&#126; ) at the end of your comment. You may also push the signature button located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your name and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you!
 * I'm not sure when I ever interacted with you, but please read WP:BIO. Also, WP:NOT free hosting. Regards, α Chimp   laudare  16:49, 26 July 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 Velders. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Velders~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 03:30, 20 March 2015 (UTC)
