User talk:Wannadoo~enwiki





Welcome aboard! We're glad you wish to help develop Wikipedia, and hope you enjoy participating in its community as much as we do. As a new contributor however, you may feel a little overwhelmed by the sheer size and scope of this project... but don't worry, it will become easier and clearer as you go, and if you have any problems, there will always be other Wikipedians happy to help. There are some resources set forth below to help you get started. Good luck and have fun! -- The Wikipedia Welcoming Committee


 * One of the best places to get started after reading this page is Introduction.

If you do get stuck, the following people have volunteered to give you a helping hand learning the ropes:
 * Welcoming committee/members
 * Tip: Sign your name on talk pages by adding four tildes ( ~ ) after your question; this will automatically produce your username and the time, aiding the flow of discussion.

Even more volunteers are standing by to answer your questions on the following pages. You can usually expect an answer quickly, often within just a few minutes:


 * New contributors' help page
 * Help desk

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 Wannadoo. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Wannadoo~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 03:22, 20 March 2015 (UTC)
