User talk:Robert Sieger~enwiki
Hi Robert, welcome to Wikipedia !
Just a note: you should avoid using "CAPITALIZED WORDS" most of the time (99% of the time) because they're most of the times resented by other people as shouting. You don't need them to state your points. ----FvdP 21:48 12 Jun 2003 (UTC)
Why are you deliberately creating new pages with the wrong title, and saying in the summary that the URL is wrong? You're the one who created it. Evercat 21:48 12 Jun 2003 (UTC)
- I guess he noticed the error after the fact, and did not know how to rename the page. BTW, Robert, renaming a page is easy: use the "move this page" link in the left margin. --FvdP 21:50 12 Jun 2003 (UTC)
Nevermind, I've figured it out - you followed a link to that page. If the link is wrong, you can fix it. :-) Evercat 21:53 12 Jun 2003 (UTC)
- ...but creating a page under the wrong title then moving it is good too, because it leaves a redirect from the wrong title to the right one... No urgent need to correct the link afterwards. --FvdP
Yeah, it's cool. Evercat 21:58 12 Jun 2003 (UTC)
- This isn't exactly a sockpuppet, it's Bob's original account John Stalvern (talk) 18:40, 15 June 2008 (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 Robert Sieger. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Robert Sieger~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
