User talk:BrightStar~enwikiversity

Hello, and welcome to Wikiversity!

Here are some tips to help you get started:
 * To learn the wiki-markup-language syntax, see Help:Editing.
 * You should sign your name on talk and vote pages using two dashes and four tildes, like this: --&#126;&#126;&#126;&#126;.
 * There is a box at the top of the edit window that will insert this, too; it looks like a signature.
 * Preferably, conduct any editing experiments in the sandbox.
 * You can tell the community something about yourself in your userpage.
 * You can get to this page by clicking the tab at the top of the page labeled with your registered username.
 * To attain a better understanding of what Wikiversity is, you might want to read through the introduction.
 * Please say hello at the Colloquium with any questions or ideas.
 * Eventually, you might want to take the guided tour.
 * Please take a look at Namespaces to get a better idea of how Wikiversity is structurally setup.
 * Wikiversity works a bit differently than other Wikimedia projecs. You may want to read about having a neutral point of view.
 * If you are interested in conducting research, please read the research guidelines.
 * Explore, be bold in editing pages, and have fun!

You will find more resources in Community Portal. If you want to ask a question, visit the questions page, the IRC (chat) page or ask me personally on my talk page. For site news, see the news page. It also might be a good idea if you add this page to your "watchlist" so that you can see when any new information is posted there.

Good luck! --Remi 07:22, 29 March 2007 (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 BrightStar. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name BrightStar~enwikiversity 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 23:31, 17 March 2015 (UTC)
