User talk:DouglasGreen~metawiki
HI,
Please gather your edits in more bigger unit; your edits fill up the Recentchanges and it is hard for us to grasp what is going on. If you make your edit into much bigger ones, it will be very helpful for other editors. Yon can use preview ("Show previw" botton) and know how your edit will display. Thanks. --Aphaia | Translate Election | ++ 05:19, 21 May 2005 (UTC)
P.S. May I ask Www.wikinews.org template/My username is also yours, and it should be kept or not? --Aphaia | Translate Election | ++ 05:22, 21 May 2005 (UTC)
Thanks for the tip, I'll keep that in mind. The Www.wikinews.org template/My username was mine, but it can be deleted. I got a little confused switching back and forth between windows and ended up editing the generic "My username" page as well as my own page. So the My username page is redundant; the DouglasGreen page is the one that should be kept. Thanks. DouglasGreen 03:45, 23 May 2005 (UTC)
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 DouglasGreen. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name DouglasGreen~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
