I won't be here for the next month or so, email me if you've got anything to discuss. I'll be back soon....

There are always things to do on Wikinews:

By the way, you can sign your name on Talk pages using four tildes (~~~~), which produces your name and the current date. If you have any questions, you can ask them at the water cooler or to anyone on the Welcommittee, or ask me on my Talk page. Again, welcome!

Vandals[edit]

You said you banned the vandal from the computer... does this imply that you have some knowledge over the source of the vandalism, as well as where it's performed? —this is messedr͏̈ocker (talk) 18:38, 8 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Ah, that's good. One thing you could try would be to ban http://en.wikinews.org/w/index.php?title=*&action=edit — the asterisk indicates a wildcard. That way, people would be able to view Wikinews but not edit it. If that doesn't work out, you could just keep the total Wikinews ban. —this is messedr͏̈ocker (talk) 23:31, 8 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

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 Gold-Horn. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Gold-Horn~enwikinews 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
