 Welcome! Please leave me a message.

My link has been removed again!!! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Light_painting
My link (instead of a photo) has been removed. The link was to http://www.jncohen.net/Spirit_of_Spring.htm

Please can you suggest what I can do to enable readers to view what is a very different form of 'Painting with Light' since I am not prepared to give away my image copyright.

Most disappointed. I have three links from that page (one of them was back to Wikipedia) would the page be allowed without the link to my 'Painting with Light' page? The other link is to my free article describing how to do it, must that link go too?

Or were the links removed because of the way I had added them? I did ask you for help, but had no response.

Please let me know how to improve this for your readers.

Thanks John N. Cohen (talk) 19:27, 24 June 2010 (UTC)

I have replaced the same link but I have removed the link to my 'Painting with Light' page. So the link is to http://www.jncohen.net/Spirit_of_Spring.htm

Please let me know if this page is now acceptable. Thanks, John (talk) 15:59, 25 June 2010 (UTC)

This last link has been removed again!!! What can I do in order for readers to see some examples without giving up my copyright??? I feel at a loss to understand why my link keeps being removed. Can you please help me? John N. Cohen (talk) 19:03, 25 June 2010 (UTC)John N. Cohen (talk) 19:06, 25 June 2010 (UTC)

Userboxes
As you might have noticed, I have started populating my user profile with userboxes. Several problems have come to my attention:
 * so far, my main resource has been the Userbox Gallery; only now do I realize that it is missing a lot of existing userboxes (here is an example.) Is there any way to consolidate the gallery/centralize userboxes so as to make it easier to find existing userbox? Do you know who I should talk to about this?
 * when one types 'userbox' in the search bar, no result related to Wikipedia userboxes comes up... wouldn't it be a good idea to fix that?
 * on the French version of Wikipedia, there is often a button inside the box that links to a category that lists all the users who added the box in question to their profile. Is there an easy way to make this happen on the English version of Wikipedia?

I understand these are tough questions... but I just thought I would ask and see what you have to say. Thank you so much for your time and help!

Anuak people

The Anyuak, also known as Anyuaa and Anywaa, are a Luo Nilotic ethnic group inhabiting parts of East Africa. The Anuak belong to the larger Luo family group. Their language is referred to as Dha-Anywaa. They primarily reside in the Gambela Region of western Ethiopia, and South Sudan. Group members number between 200,000 and 300,000 people worldwide. Many of the Anyuak people now follow Christianity. It is one of the first of the Nilotic groups to become almost entirely Christian, following the Shilluk people.

History
According to American non-profit organization Cultural Survival, the Anuak originally lived on land near the Pibor River and the Sobat River, in present-day eastern South Sudan near Ethiopia. Due to displacement from other groups, most Anuak now live along the Baro River and the Akobo River.

The Anuak are a Nilotic people. They have lived in the area of the Upper Nile for hundreds of years and consider their land to be their tribal land. Unlike other Nilotic peoples in the Upper Nile, whose economies are based on raising cattle, the Anuak are herdsmen and farmers. They are believed to have a common origin with their northern neighbors, the Luo and Shilluk. Also, they share a similar language with their neighbors to the south, the Acholi.The Luo peoples are scattered all over Eastern Africa, including Sudan and Ethiopia; they identify as a people who have preserved their cultural heritage wherever they reside. The Luo-speaking people of Eastern Africa are found beyond the Sudan and Ethiopia in Uganda, Kenya, Tanzania and the Congo. Their language(s) and dialects belong to the broader cluster of Nilo-Saharan languages.

During the Abyssnian Empire, many Anuak people were taken as slaves, often by wealthy and imperial households. Slavery in predominantly Anuak regions was abolished in the early 20th century, but was briefly restored following World War II.

According to Human Rights Watch, a prominent non-governmental organization, the Anuak people were the predominant ethnic group in Ethiopia's western Gambela Region, until the 1980s. However, beginning in 1984, the Derg regime embarked on a resettlement program, whereby 60,000 people from the central Ethiopian Highlands were relocated to Anuak lands in the Gambela Region. Simultaneously, the Second Sudanese Civil War broke out to the west of the Gambela Region, resulting in a large amount of refugees fleeing into the same area. These changes were further compounded by a gradual migration of the Nuer people eastward into the region, which had been taking place throughout the 20th century.

Following the collapse of the self-proclaimed socialist People's Democratic Republic of Ethiopia in 1991, ethnic tensions and episodes of ethnic violence broke out in the Gambela Region. Many Anuak openly resented the migration of non-Anuak residents into their historic lands, and perceived their ethnic territory to be shrinking. From 1991 onwards to the mid-2000s, ethnic clashes which have killed hundreds and displaced thousands have taken place between the Anuak and other peoples in the Gambela Region.

During the 2000s, the Ethiopian military began conducting operations to neutralized armed Anuak groups in the region. These groups, which are not unified under any single organization or political cause, include groups which target other ethnic groups and Ethiopian soldiers. The Ethiopian government has taken an increased interest in providing stability in the Gambela Region due to the recent discovery of petroleum and gold in the area.

As a result of inter-ethnic violence, and alleged discrimination from the Ethiopian government, a sizeable Anuak diaspora began to form during the 1990s and 2000s. Many settled in Minnesota, in the United States.

Geographic distribution
The Anuak people predominantly reside in western Ethiopia and South Sudan. Many live along the Baro River and the Akobo River, and within the Gambela Region of Ethiopia. The Anuak of Sudan live in a grassy region that is flat and virtually treeless. During the rainy season, this area floods, so that much of it becomes swampland with various channels of deep water running through it.

Diaspora
Following the collapse of the People's Democratic Republic of Ethiopia in 1991, large-scale inter-ethnic violence broke out between the Anuak people and other ethnic groups in Ethiopia. Anuak people in Ethiopia faced inter-ethnic violence and alleged persecution from the government throughout the 1990s and 2000s, resulting in large-scale displacements of Anuak people. As a result, many Anuak people emigrated to the United States, specifically, Minnesota. Some received relocation assistance from the International Organization for Migration. Many Anuak people which have migrated to Minnesota are employed in the meatpacking industry, working for companies such as Hormel Foods and Smithfield Foods.

Economy
The Anuak people of Ethiopia and Sudan largely reside in a subsistence economy, with rivers serving an important role. The Anuak people are largely agricultural, and animal husbandry is common. Sorghum is a common crop for the Anuak, and common livestock include cattle, sheep, and goats. They grow their crops among the riverbanks which in turn provides them a stable and efficient supply of food. When the dry season occurs, the Anuak people hunt the animals that are in search of the waterways. Many Anuak also partake in fishing, especially outside of the dry season, and will set up temporary villages in good fishing areas. Many also hunt wild birds as part of their diet.

The Anuaks also choose when to migrate their cattle based on which season is occurring (migrate in dry the dry season). The migration of domesticated animals is not as important to them as it is to other cultures because the Anuak people do not have as much livestock as most as they focus more on agriculture. The Anuaks engage in agriculture, hunting, fishing, pastoralism and gathering to meet their economic needs.

Culture and religion
The Anuak predominantly live in tight-knit communities which are largely self-contained, and often have little communication with the outside world. The Gambela Region, where many Anuak people within Ethiopia live is low-lying, and is hot and tropical with rich, fertile, well-watered soil coming from the rivers. Much is carried down from the mountains of the highlands, which has a cooler, drier climate. This is in stark contrast to much of Ethiopia, which is geographically dominated by the Ethiopian Highlands. Following the resettlement program implemented by the Ethiopian government in the 1980s, many people from the Ethiopian Highlands were resettled into predominantly Anuak areas. These migrants, which include Tigrayans, Oromo, Kambaata, Amhara peoples, are collectively referred to as "highlanders" by many Anuak people. Inter-ethnic violence between the Anuak and these so-called "highlanders" was commonplace during the 1990s and the 2000s. The mostly insular social structure of the Anuak, combined with historical and modern inter-ethnic conflicts, have led to outside observers, such as Cultural Survival, to describe them as "very suspicious of outsiders". Anuak villages are run by people called Headmen, whose power can easily be removed if deemed unsatisfactory by the people.

Anuak philosophy dictates there are no "God-men", and Headmen can be removed for behaving in a way perceived as dictatorial.

Nowadays, many Anuak people are evangelical Christians. Traditional Anuak religion placed a particular emphasis on trees, with some villages having "holy" trees. Traditional Anuak religion placed a belief in an almighty spirit known as Jwøk.

Human rights issues
Anuak activists have claimed that ethnic Anuaks in Ethiopia have suffered from torture, indiscriminate killings, looting, and discrimination from various other minority militias operating in the country, as well as from the Ethiopian government itself. During the 2000s, when such violence escalated, a report by Genocide Watch and Survivors' Rights International collected testimonies of Anuak people, which painted a picture of widespread raping and killing of Anuak civilians, as well as the destruction of their property by the Ethiopian government and allied militias. The groups' 32-page report accused the Ethiopian government and allied militias of perpetuating genocide. In 2004, Gregory Stanton, the President of Genocide Watch, compared the situation to "Rwanda in 1993, when all the early warning signs were evident but no one paid attention", and put the violence on their emergency list of ongoing genocides in the world. A 2007 report by The International Human Rights Law Clinic at the Washington College of Law submitted to the United Nations Committee on the Elimination of All Forms of Racial Discrimination concluded that the Ethiopian government's response to violent massacres in 2003 was in violation of the International Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Racial Discrimination. A 2005 report by Human Rights Watch also found that the Ethiopian militia "has committed widespread murder, rape and torture" against Anuak cilivians. The report amounted the actions of the Ethiopian military to crimes against humanity. The former governor of the Gambela Region, Okello Akuaye, has also accused the government of aiding local militias in attacking Anuak civilians. According to Anuak militants, Anuak men (and some women) continue to be subject to arbitrary arrest, beatings, detentions and extrajudicial killings in Ethiopia.

Human rights issues faced by the Anuak and others who live in the lowlands of the Gambela Region has affected the Anuaks' access to water, food, education, health care, and other basic services, as well as limiting opportunities for development of the area.

The Ethiopian government has denied that its military was involved in attacks on Anuaks, and instead attributed violence in the region to local ethnic militias. Others have alleged that Anuak militias have committed human rights abuses against other groups, such as killing Nuer civilians. A 2006 article by BBC News characterized local violence as a dispute between the Anuak and the Nuer "over access to pasture, water and fertile land in the Gambella region".

When the Derg regime enacted a mobilization of all Ethiopian males in March 1983, many Anuak opposed conscription on a cultural basis. The government carried out a systemic enforcement of this conscription, which resulted many young service-age Anuak to flee to Sudan or remote regions within Ethiopia to avoid conscription.

Diaspora response
In response to an escalation in violence in western Ethiopia during the 2000s, a group of Anuaks living in the United States and Canada formed the Anuak Justice Council, an organization to promote the human rights of Anuaks. The group has collaborated with other non-governmental organizations to document instances of violence, and to lobby various countries to condemn the practices of the Ethiopian government.

Dahaka
Whoa, dude, when you're dropping a note on someone's Talk, try to put it in a new header or at least leave it at the bottom of the page. It took me ten minutes to find your comment. Also, sign your comments with four tildes, like so: ~.

As to your comment, I was working on a mass page for all the PoP characters. Unfortunately I was interrupted before I got finished, and I'm only just getting back on now. Don't worry, the Dahaka's information is still intact, and it will be up shortly. ♠ P  M  C  ♠ 22:46, 17 October 2005 (UTC)

 * Wikipedia normally runs by having a central list of characters giving descriptions of all the characters, rather than having a stub for every article. However it may be acceptable to make an article on the very most notable character. Also, have redirects from the less notables to the list. R  e  dwolf24  (talk) 00:38, 18 November 2005 (UTC)

 * To expand Redwolf's point: Among other things, a central list makes the articles less likely to get AFD'd as non-notable stubs, (which occurs frequently) makes cross-referencing between characters easier (in the case that someone wants to compare character information), and helps with organization. Having redirects from the character articles and then including the information in a larger list is much preferable to a scattering of stubs. One can still utilize the character name articles to make redirects to the list page. The template, slightly modified, can still be used on the list page - in fact, that's quite a good idea. As all the information on the mini-articles is included on that larger List article, I'm redirecting them to the larger for now. ♠ P  M  C  ♠ 01:09, 18 November 2005 (UTC)

 * Hmm, I like the way you think. It looks good to me now, especially the enemies page. I'll have a look-over for grammar and such, but aside from that, it looks pretty damn cool. I think I might merge the item articles into a single "list of items" page, is that okay? As for the mini-pages, you don't need to delete them. We can turn them into redirects by replacing the text on the page with #REDIRECT wherever you're redirecting to . Also, I think the locations, if and when created, should probably be put into a single article. ♠ P  M  C  ♠ 22:09, 18 November 2005 (UTC)

I have tagged Image:Tomb_Raider_4_cover.jpg as no rationale, because it does not provide a fair use rationale. If you believe the image to be acceptable for fair use according to Wikipedia policy, please provide a rationale explaining as much, in accordance with the fair use rationale guideline, on the image description page. Please also consider using or one of the other tags listed at Image copyright tags. Thank you. Videmus Omnia Talk  02:12, 22 August 2007 (UTC)

Image source problem with Image:The-Prince-3.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:The-Prince-3.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the GFDL-self tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Non-free content, use a tag such as or one of the other tags listed at Image copyright tags. See Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 22:10, 13 January 2008 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. B (talk) 22:10, 13 January 2008 (UTC)

Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Harlan-Wade.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Harlan-Wade.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. Using one of the templates at Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot (talk) 22:32, 13 February 2008 (UTC)

Image Tagging Image:OHPAnya.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:OHPAnya.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is therefore unclear. If you have not created this media yourself then you need to argue that we have the right to use the media on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the media yourself then you should also specify where you found it, i.e., in most cases link to the website where you got it, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the media also doesn't have a copyright tag then you must also add one. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then you can use GFDL to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media qualifies as fair use, please read fair use, and then use a tag such as or one of the other tags listed at Image copyright tags.

Long-tailed hawk

The long-tailed hawk (Urotriorchis macrourus) is an African bird of prey in the family Accipitridae. It is the only member of the genus Urotriorchis.

Description
The long-tailed hawk is a distinctively shaped raptor with a very noticeable long, barred tail and is dark grey on its upperparts and chestnut on its underparts with a contrasting white throat and undertail coverts. In flight the white flight feathers on the underwing are heavily barred with dark grey. There is a rare morph which has a grey breast, with a paler grey throat but still has the white undertail coverts. The bill is black, the eyes, cere, legs and feet are yellow. Juveniles are browner, with a white-breasted "plain" morph and a "marked" morph which has the breast streaked with brown. It has a wingspan of 81 - 90 cm and a total length of 56 - 65 cm, including the tail of 30 - 37 cm. Females are about 15% larger than males. Since the tail comprises about 56% of this raptor's total length, this species ties with the cinereous harrier as the raptor with the longest tail relative to its body size.

Voice
It is a rather vocal bird which is often first detected by the long drawn out screech given by birds perched in the canopy.

Distribution and habitat
The long-tailed hawk occurs in the tropical rainforests of western and central Africa, from Guinea in the west, along the Gulf of Guinea coast south to northern Angola, east to the southern Central African Republic, northern Democratic Republic of Congo, South Sudan and western Uganda.

Habits
The long-tailed hawk primarily eats squirrels, especially scaly-tailed squirrels, and small birds; it can also hunt chickens in the villages close to the forest. It kills prey by breaking the neck. It has also been known to attack hammer-headed fruit bats. Its strong legs and feet suggest its main prey are mammals. The mating season occurs in July and August, when the pair build a nest on a high tree. Little is known regarding nesting and breeding the young, an adult was seen feeding a fledged juvenile in Sierra Leone in August.

Etymology
The generic name Urotriorchis was coined by Richard Bowdler Sharpe in 1874 and combines "Uro-", from the Greek "tail", and "triorchis", a kind of hawk thought to have three testicles—for further details see Eutriorchis. "Macro-" is from the Greek for "long", so macrourus means "long-tailed", as in the English name.

Talk:WWE Heat

Sunday Night Heat
That's precisely why it's relevant; Styles' work-shoot promo on RAW made that fact more in the spotlight. Also, it's been two weeks in a row now that he's hosted solo. I think it at least deserves a mention because he's the only one on the list by himself. That in itself deserves some sort of context.

I'll make you a deal; if he's still hosting by himself at the end of June, let's say, I think it would be relevant enough to not arbitrarily take down. Besides, if you're arguing nobody will care, we're talking about HEAT. It's not like it is a huge deal anyway. Nightcrawlerdcl 1:14, 13 May 2006

 * isn't "However, Coachman's announce partner Grisham would take Coachman's color commentator role to allow Styles to do play-by-play but Styles would also become unavailable meaning Grisham would run the show alone." good enough its to the point and it is stating everything that needs to be said --- Paulley 12:57, 14 May 2006 (UTC)

I'd like to know why information about the current and former announcers of HEAT "has no place" on the HEAT page. Also, I specifically pointed out that as it pertains to major wrestling promotions, not just any wrestling promotions. I would appreciate a response. Nightcrawlerdcl 4:17, 10 May 2006

 * well lets see because Grisham hosted it once on his own... the only reason there is mention of it cus WWE ECW-style brand is comming into existance if it wasnt for that you wouldnt have even thought about it and in about 3 months time no one will remeber or care --- Paulley 10:14, 10 May 2006 (UTC)

At the moment Heat is not shown on sundays, anymore. Therefore, do not refer to it as 'Sunday Night Heat', anymore. It makes absolutely no sense, if the show is not streamed on Sundays, or at night time, for that matter. I have seen plenty of this in other articles, that is why I have brought it to my attention. Jman5 23:58, 20 March 2006 (UTC)

I have only one question regarding Heat. Even though its about to be no longer in existence I think it would be nice to add if someone can find a "reliable source" that heat is used to entroudce new wrestlers to the fans. I myself have been to raw 3 seperate times. Heat has always been shown for 1 hour before Raw comes on the air live. Even the WWE RAW tickest show the show starting at 7:45 PM. Im going again July 14 2008 where it will be live in Raleigh NC. Everytime ive been ive seen "jobbers" and wrestlers who are needing fan support to be shown on Raw. Just as an example using the "Spirit Squad" I saw them my 2nd time at Raw during Heat. This was the so called main event for heat. They had a match against 2 wrestlers Id never heard of and they never made there debute to Raw. However the Spirit Squad did 1 month later. Any idea how we can find "facts" to put this on the main article.Jonathanmbarnes (talk) 04:36, 27 May 2008 (UTC) JMB

WWE Heat Special Episodes
It seems that this artice does Not mention a big factor, every once in a while WWE Heat airs a "Special episode", these episodes mostly take place before a RAW PPV or a PPV (Smackdown, ECW or Joint) that features a major RAW superstar. In these episodes, they are about that certain RAW superstar(s) and his opponent(s). They show footage and past matches that took place earlier in their WWE career, as well as all the footage and matches showing how that RAW superstar started and developed his feud with his enemy and/or opponent. There was a special episode for Randy Orton vs Hulk Hogan, DX, etc.

Every epidose of Heat thats exactly before a RAW PPV is a Special Episode, and episodes of Heat thats exactly before a Joint or SD! or ECW PPV that features RAW superstars feud/enemity with the other Superstars is also a special episode.

So, why isnt there any mention of this?

Caps
Is there anything to indicate that Heat was rendered in all caps in its original run? Tim Long 22:39, 4 February 2007 (UTC) thumb|WWF SUNDAY NIGHT HeAT logo (1998-2000)
 * Actually by the look of this picture (→) it seems like the whole thing was in caps except for the second letter in each word ("u" in Sunday, "i" in Night, and "e" in Heat) -- Paulley

Logo
Can the person who stated in the article that "a new logo has been introduced with the difference being the letters are different color" stop writing that as the logo is the same however WWE.com has many differences for it. ---Belevsquad 08:41, 17 February 2007 (U - Whens Heat on TV?

Its not shown on TV anymore. It was on the weekends. The WWE was not drawing enough ratings to keep it running.Jonathanmbarnes (talk) 04:26, 27 May 2008 (UTC)JMB

It was on Sunday's, hence "Sunday Night". 76.110.82.251 (talk) 01:18, 5 June 2008 (UTC)

coming back
any word on heat coming back since the whole ecw/raw merge got cancelled? KP317 20:01, 6 September 2008 (UTC)

Halftime Heat
Since Halftime Heat is coming back should Halftime Heat have a different article or remain part of this article? -- HC7 19:44, 28 January 2019 (UTC)
 * Do you have a source that links it to this show? Anything that says it is it will be episode 514? Or is it a different linage that shares the name similar to WWE Superstars. -  Galatz גאליץ שיחה Talk  19:57, 28 January 2019 (UTC)

 * Personally think it is perfectly at home at Halftime Heat. MPJ-DK (talk) 20:26, 28 January 2019 (UTC)

 * Remain here. I liken this to Starrcade (2018), which stupidly still has its own article. -- JDC808  ♫  00:45, 2 February 2019 (UTC)
 * Based on what source? WWE has uploaded it to the "WWE Network Exclusive" category, not the "WWE Heat" category. Including it on this page is WP:OR. Your Starrcade analogy defends not breaking it out from the main Halftime Heat article. -  Galatz גאליץ שיחה Talk  18:07, 4 February 2019 (UTC)
 * Misread that this was the talk page for the WWE Heat article (had followed a link to this post), though point still stands but for the parent Halftime Heat article (as in, yesterday's special does not need its own article). -- JDC808  ♫  23:56, 4 February 2019 (UTC)
 * Yes, I agree with that. Definitely a not needed fork. -  Galatz גאליץ שיחה Talk  13:51, 5 February 2019 (UTC)

How to Move a Page
Do NOT do a copy+paste!

READ How_to_move_a_page. You use the "MOVE" button, at the top of most every page, this moves the talk pages, the watch pages, the links, everything. If the page you want to move to has never been edited, any user can do it. If it has, or there is content there you have two choices:

You can use: Requested moves

 * and/or

Go to the admin page and see who is online now, then hit one up. Or an admin you already know. It is ten to 100 times faster than putting it on "Requested moves" I have seen pages stay on there over a month.

Once the page has been moved, go to and click "What links here" in the toolbox on the left pane. Then you can begin your link fixes, fix the "re-directs" (I recommend looking at this list before the move). I wouldn't worry to much about the "user" pages, if any, that are linked to that particular page, those users can fixs the re-directs if they want to.

Re: I-290 (IL)
Sounds pretty legitimate to replace the comments about the banker with the inertia concept. In the 1950s Oak Park was pretty much developed out (something I can't quite cite yet), so it would make sense.

My first edits to the history section from the copious source material at http://www.cookexpressways.com/ haven't quite addressed this yet, so I'll work on that. It really doesn't help that the source isn't in chronological order. But it seems that the 6-lane Maywood section opened in 1955, while the 8-lane section from 1st Avenue to Laramie opened in 1960. Odds are a combination of cost constraints and pressure to open caused the reduction in lanes. — Rob (  talk  ) 19:43, 2 April 2007 (UTC)

Notification: changes to "Mark my edits as minor by default" preference
Hello there. This is an automated message to tell you about the gradual phasing out of the preference entitled "Mark all edits minor by default", which you currently have (or very recently had) enabled.

On 13 March 2011, this preference was hidden from the user preferences screen as part of efforts to prevent its accidental misuse (consensus discussion). This had the effect of locking users in to their existing preference, which, in your case, was. To complete the process, your preference will automatically be changed to  in the next few days. This does not require any intervention on your part and you will still be able to manually mark your edits as being 'minor'. The only thing that's changed is that you will no longer have them marked as minor by default.

For established users such as yourself there is a workaround available involving custom JavaScript. If you are familiar with the contents of WP:MINOR, and believe that it is still beneficial to the encyclopedia to have all your edits marked as such by default, then this discussion will give you the details you need to continue with this functionality indefinitely. If you have any problems, feel free to drop me a note.

Thank you for your understanding and happy editing :) Editing on behalf of User:Jarry1250, LivingBot (talk) 18:26, 14 March 2011 (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 Eplekake. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Eplekake~enwiki 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. If you think you might own all of the accounts with this name and this message is in error, please visit Special:MergeAccount to check and attach all of your accounts to prevent them from being renamed.

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.
