User talk:Underground~enwiki
Hi there. Welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you like it here and stick around. If you want, you can drop us a note at Wikipedia:New user log to introduce yourself.
Since I strongly suspect that you are writing about yourself at XeW, you should take a look at the guidelines on Autobiography. The page will probably be deleted, as there is no reason to believe that this hacker is especially notable.
Before you start doing a lot of editing, you'll want to take the Tutorial. It gives all the basic info you'll need as you start contributing.
You can sign your name on talk pages by using " ~~~ " for your username and " ~~~~ " for your username and a timestamp.
If you have any other questions about the project then check out Wikipedia:Help or add a question to the Help desk. You can also drop me a question on my talk page.
Happy editing, Isomorphic 18:26, 13 May 2004 (UTC)
- Hi, thanks for your explanation. Wikipedia is not a directory, so your article isn't really what we're looking for, but it's no big deal. Blanking a page isn't the same as deleting it - it'll have to go through the Wikipedia:Votes for deletion process as a formality before it's actually removed. If you're interested in writing for us, I'm sure there's plenty you could contribute. Take a look at Contributing to Wikipedia. Isomorphic 18:51, 13 May 2004 (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 Underground. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Underground~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

Renamed
[edit]This account has been renamed as part of single-user login finalisation. If you own this account you can log in using your previous username and password for more information. If you do not like this account's new name, you can choose your own using this form after logging in: Special:GlobalRenameRequest. -- Keegan (WMF) (talk)
