User talk:Yellowikis~enwiki

Welcome to Wikipedia! Unfortunately promotional material is not allowed in articles. It is probably more appropriate if you make requests to the community at Wikipedia:Village pump (miscellaneous).

If you feel the need to experiment before editing, then please use the Wikipedia:Sandbox. Other helpful pages are Wikipedia:Tutorial and Wikipedia:Annotated article.

There are many things to learn here: if you want a few pointers then come and visit me at User: Noisy, or leave a message on my talk page. Otherwise, the only tips I give are

• that you sign your name with three tildes (~~~), and leave name and timestamp with four tildes
• <nowiki> </nowiki> around text will stop it being interpreted
• play around with your 'preferences' to change the way that your screen is displayed
• fill in the Edit summary when making a change
• and finally ... I recommend that you use the 'Show preview' button as a matter of habit before saving your edits.

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