 * Thanks also from me for your work on the main page. I would like to see material from this page (and the pages it links to) on the Wikiversity main page. --JWSchmidt 19:00, 15 August 2006 (UTC)


 * Hello again! You're both welcome. It was fun. :) I'll look at the example page if time tonight. Otherwise, in a few days or so. Doug 19:04, 15 August 2006 (UTC)

Research
I've started Research as a place to start developing policies on what research we'll allow and how it could work - it would be great to have your input whenever you have the time. Also, there's interest in learning about how to do research, as well as proposed "courses" on the use of wikis and their implications for education - all these could tie in nicely..

 * OK, will look at this in a bit. Doug 17:54, 16 August 2006 (UTC)

Request for Usurpation
Hello, Doug. A request has been made at Changing username to usurp, or "take over", your username because you have not used it to edit, and another user would like to use it to edit. w:Wikipedia:Changing username/Usurpations says that any unused username may be usurped if the user is given 14 days notice to object and does not do so.

If you have an email set in your preferences, you should be getting an email from a bureaucrat explaining how to consent or object to this process.

If you do not object to being renamed to a new username in order for another user to utilize the name you currently have, please log in and post a reply here saying so (you may also tell us what username you would like to be renamed to, or we will provide you with a generic one).

If you do nothing : the request will be filled after 14 days, and your account will be moved to a generic username. You may request that it be moved to a new username of your choice at any time.

If you object to being renamed : please log in and make an edit. You may make an edit here saying "No", you may make an edit to blank this page, or any other edit you like; making any edit at all prevents your username from being usurped, because users with edits cannot have their usernames usurped.

Please note that even if your current username is usurped, you can still edit and your data will not be lost; your preferences, watchlist, and other user settings will be transferred to a new username.

Thank you for your time. --BewareofDoug 18:42, 27 January 2009 (UTC)

User:Doug has been renamed to User:Doug (old)
FYI, This happened because User:BewareofDoug requested usurption. We can rename User:Doug (old) to something else if you like. See WV:CHU. -- Jtneill - Talk - c 05:36, 12 February 2011 (UTC)
