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

FYI[edit]

Hallo Polentarion, sieh mal dort: Steward requests/Global#Global lock for Serten. Das Konto (wahrscheinlich mal wieder AY) wurde inzwischen global geblockt und gelockt, kann sich also dort nicht mehr einloggen. Es kann nun noch umbenannt werden und du dann ein neues Konto (mit einer Sperre auf eigenen Wunsch im Logbuch statt mit globaler Zugriffssperre wie jetzt) dort als en:WP:Doppelganger account erhalten, um die Anlage eines neuen Kontos durch AY oder sonst jemanden dort zu verhindern. Vielleicht wird das auch dort direkt gemacht und du erhältst dann das Passwort via Mail. Viele Grüße --Winternacht (talk) 00:47, 18 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

PS: Wahrscheinlich kannst du das neue Doppelgänger-Konto an der Stelle auch einfach ungesperrt liegen lassen und nur die Weiterleitungen dort stehen lassen. --Winternacht (talk) 01:09, 18 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

OK! Winterreise/Alkim hat da ja schnell reagiert. Polentarion (talk) 06:00, 18 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
