OTRS help
Help:OTRS.--Juan de Vojníkov 11:16, 8 August 2010 (UTC)

E-mail sent to Paulomiguel
For transparency, I've sent the following email to Paulomiguel:

The article you created, http://en.wikiversity.org/wiki/Ecolig, was under a deletion discussion that lasted way, way too long. The conclusion was No Consensus, so the page has not been deleted.

There were two kinds of arguments for deletion: the first was possible copyright violation. Those arguments were unclear. As you are apparently the author of the work that was allegedly violated, there would be various ways to handle copyright violation issues so as to head off possible future confusion over this. If you have email notification set up for your Wikiversity user talk page, as I recommend, you can be contacted, then, by any Wikiversity user through posting to your Talk page and can respond there.

It was suggested before that you go through OTRS to establish your identity. I'm not sure that's necessary, but if someone wants to insist on it, it might become so.

Having an author who maintains contact can be an important element in maintaining Wikiversity resources. If you are available to discuss the concepts, that would be super. Discussion is an important part of education, and Wikiversity is not Wikipedia, where discussion of topics is actually discouraged.

The second argument was that it was "fringe" or "weird" or "poorly written." Those are not valid deletion reasons for Wikiversity, provided that material is not presented in a misleading way.

I apologize for what may have appeared as a rude rejection of your work, but I'll explain that Wikiversity does need to be careful about copyright, and that there are -- or were -- differences of opinion in the community as to what may be hosted. The founders of Wikiversity and the general sense of the community, though, is that original research is allowed, and that ideas being unusual or seeming strange is not a problem, again, provided that no deceptive appearance is created that might give ideas not generally accepted an appearance of being mainstream or established.

I hope you will consider becoming active at Wikiversity, especially with respect to your own research and interests, or otherwise helping out where you have expertise and interest.

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 Paulomiguel. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Paulomiguel~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 23:47, 17 March 2015 (UTC)

Renamed
 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.
