Feedback for new survey?[edit]

Hi Tabby, I noticed you gave some feedback on the last iteration of the Editor Survey that was run late last year. We're getting ready to run another version of this survey, and was wondering if you'd be willing to give us some feedback again? You can read the questions at Research:Wikipedia_Editor_Survey_August_2012/Questions, and if you'd like to see how the survey will look in its final form, you can see it here, and feel free to take the survey to see how it works, or if you see any other problems with it. Thanks for your help!! Christine (WMF) (talk) 04:06, 2 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Your account will be renamed[edit]

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 Tabby. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Tabby~metawiki 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.

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
