User talk:Jazzman~enwiki
Thank you for your GLA contribution. Sometimes if I don't have time or know too little about anything, I'll just add more useful links or copyedit the article. If you find the article your're re-writing modified by some other people minutes ago, copy your text into an external editor, say Windows Notepad, and paste your new materials into the modified edition. This could be time-consuming, but it's the best you can do. -- Toytoy 13:16, Aug 29, 2004 (UTC)
Welcome
[edit]Hello, welcome to Wikipedia, Jazzman!!
I hope you like this place and have fun editing. I thought i write you some info for newcomers, although i'm not the first to stumble over you. I found that quite helpful when i first arrived here. We always like to meet new Wikipedians, and hope they will like the place a bit!
Here ar some more things to do, in case you're bored. But don't feel pressed by that.
You can help improve the articles listed below! This list updates frequently, so check back here for more tasks to try. (See Wikipedia:Maintenance or the Task Center for further information.)
Help counter systemic bias by creating new articles on important women.
Help improve popular pages, especially those of low quality.
You might find these links helpful in creating new pages or helping with the above tasks: How to edit a page, How to write a great article, Naming conventions, Manual of Style. You should read our policies at some point too.
If you want get to know more people here, list yourself at Wikipedia:New user log, and go back there sometimes to see if you find people matching your intersts. Go to Wikipedia:Community Portal to learn more about wikipedia and ways to participate.
If you have any questions, see the help pages, or add a question to the village pump. You also can leave me a message at User talk:Lady Tenar, but it may take a few days bevore i see the message and can respond.
Here are some more tips:
- If you made any edits before you got an account, you might be interested in assigning those to your username.
- You can sign your name using three tildes, like this: ~~~. If you use four, you can add a datestamp too.
- If you ever think a page or image should be deleted, please list it at the votes for deletion page. There is also a votes for undeletion page if you want to retrieve something that you think should not have been deleted.
Have fun! Lady Tenar 13:43, 29 Aug 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 Jazzman. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Jazzman~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
