Howdy
Welcome to Wikipedia! I just wanted to drop off a note to welcome you to Wikipedia.

If you haven't checked them out yet, you might want to check out some of the things your new account lets you do, such as customization (more) and your watchlist (more).

There are a few things you probably want to keep in mind as you traverse Wikipedia:


 * Please write with a neutral point of view. This is perhaps the most important tenet of Wikipedia &mdash; write neutrally, and don't interject your opinion into articles.


 * Please assume that people's actions are well-meant, unless they've given you ample cause to believe otherwise. On Wikipedia, this is referred to as "assuming good faith."


 * If you get into disagreements with others, please try to work it out civilly and without personal attacks. If worse comes to worse, Wikipedia has methods for resolving disagreements, but it is best if the parties can work out by themselves ... and it reflects best on you, too.


 * Please respect others' copyrights &mdash; that means it's not kosher to just cut and paste from webpages.


 * If you need somewhere to goof around with things, try the Sandbox &mdash; please don't edit articles just to test them. But when you feel ready to, you don't need to hesitantly ask permission &mdash; if you think you've got a solid contribution to make, we encourage you to be bold.


 * Please sign any message you leave on a talk page (not your contributions to an article, but any personal messages you might leave on an article's talk page or a person's talk page) with four tildes. This will sign your name.  Four tildes look like this: ~

More rules of the road can be found here.

If you'd like to learn more about Wikipedia, there are a few good places to start. Check out the welcome to newcomers, the introduction, and the tutorial.

If I can be of any help, please feel free to [ drop me a line on my talk page] (and be sure to [ check back there] for my response). But since I'm not always available, you may get a quicker response by typing   on this page, and an experienced Wikipedian will shortly come around to answer any questions you may have.

Thanks ... and welcome again! &mdash; WCityMike (talk &bull; contribs)

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 Wikimiki. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Wikimiki~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 03:40, 20 March 2015 (UTC)
