User talk:Richard Ellis~mediawikiwiki

Hello Richard Ellis. A page you recently created was outside of MediaWiki.org's scope and has been deleted or will be deleted soon. In future, please remember that MediaWiki.org exists solely for the documentation of the MediaWiki software and that off-topic material is not accepted here. If the content was important (for example, maybe you're just on the wrong wiki or confused about how to set up a wiki) then don't worry! Just email the deleting admin (through Special:EmailUser, or another admin if you get no response) to request a copy. Thanks for your understanding.--Shanmugamp7 (talk) 16:49, 26 February 2014 (UTC)

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

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 03:49, 18 March 2015 (UTC)
