User talk:Gem~enwiki
Hello there Gem, welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. If you ever need editing help visit Wikipedia:How does one edit a page and experiment at Wikipedia:Sandbox. If you need pointers on how we title pages visit Wikipedia:Naming conventions. If you have any other questions about the project then check out Wikipedia:Help or add a question to the Village pump. --Dante Alighieri 22:04 29 May 2003 (UTC)
Thank you and hello Gem 29th may 03
- Here's a tip. It's very easy to sign and date your edits automatically with the following format: ~~~~ (that's four tildes). Enjoy the Wikipedia! --Dante Alighieri 22:10 29 May 2003 (UTC)

- Sorry to revert your UB40 edit so quickly, but, well, see User talk:Michael/ban etc. for why it's done. What it comes down to is, we can't trust any of the dates he puts on albums and such; there's likely to be a few in there that are deliberately a year off one way or the other, he may even make up bogus albums. Do feel free to put in the member list again (though it should be "its", not "it's" ;), and if you can confirm the 1977 formation, the first paragraph could stay the way you wrote it. But the discography is very suspect until confirmed. -- John Owens 23:25 24 Jun 2003 (UTC)
- Hello Gem, thanks for your support with the Oxford Canal picture. Also its nice to see another fairly local wikipedian. Perhaps you might be interested in filling in some of the red links at the list of places in Warwickshire article?. G-Man 19:01, 13 Mar 2005 (UTC)
Birmingham
[edit]Hi Gem, glad to see you agree that having a link to Birmingham, Alabama at the top of the Birmingham page is a good idea. I'm gonna see if maybe there could be a vote on it. Proto t c 5 July 2005 11:35 (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 Gem. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Gem~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

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)

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
