About Wikipedia
I'm of the opinion that the About page needs to be most helpful as can be in answering questions people often have about Wikipedia. This is especially true, since it is linked more prominently per discussion at MediaWiki_talk:Sidebar. With that in mind, I have boldly gone through the page to do copyedits and reorder sections, as needed. I may come back later, after giving more about the most commonly asked questions and issues are, and see that those are addressed properly in the "About" page. Your suggestions and feedback would be most helpful, or please go in and change things yourself if you wish. --Aude (talk) 17:40, 8 February 2007 (UTC)

Hello
I saw the post at WP:AN today and would like to introduce myself. I'm a sysop on the English edition of Wikipedia and I've written letters to the press to suggest factual corrections in stories that cover Wikipedia. To the extent that my volunteer time allows, I'd like to help you out. Please contact me at my user talk page. Regards, Durova Charge! 17:47, 9 February 2007 (UTC)

Spokeswomanship for requesting permission
It has been pointed out that because the Wikimedia Foundation is so powerful, it could lobby effectively for images and media it would otherwise be claiming as fair use to be released under open-source licenses. But individual editors probably can't, especially since under the new bylaws we're no longer members of the WMF. So what if when we wanted to request the release of something, instead of making the request under our own names, we were to ghost-write them and have you send them in the name of the Foundation?

Assistance with media relations?
Hi, it's been suggested I run by you an initiative currently underway at WikiProject Oregon, where we are trying to get the word out about what we're up to. Background info is here, and the press release we're working on is here. (Hoping to get it out in the next day or two.) If you have input, feel free to contact me directly through email or on the phone: 503-453-9766. Thanks! -Pete (talk) 08:29, 25 February 2008 (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 WikiBlue. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name WikiBlue~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 03:24, 20 March 2015 (UTC)
