User talk:Shashe~enwiktionary

Welcome

Welcome!

Hello, and welcome to Wiktionary. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are a few good links for newcomers:

• Wiktionary Tutorial
• Community Portal
• Entry layout explained
• Criteria for inclusion
• FAQ
• How to edit a page
• How to start a page
• Wiktionary Sandbox (a safe place for testing syntax)

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wiktionarian! By the way, you can sign your name on Talk (discussion) and vote pages using four tildes, like this: ~~~~, which automatically produces your name and the current date. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the beer parlour or ask me on my Talk page. Again, welcome! OK, welcome aboard. Most of us aren't that bothered about taking credit for things. It's mostly a collective effort, and we each do what we can. Cheers. SemperBlotto 09:53, 16 August 2005 (UTC)

Getting settled in.

perhaps I was a bit too controversial and opinionated. I will try to understand better the formats and methods in which work gets done. I realize that I would like to help where I can and leave what I can't do to the people who can. thanks polyglot for your well phrased constructive critisism. Shashe 21:36, 16 August 2005 (UTC)

You're welcome Shashe. You got it right. We all do a little thing that we are good at and then when we look at the result it became this magnificent piece of work. It's not important who happened to have done what. It's only important that the work gets done. We're achieving a whole lot for relatively litlle effort, because we all do it together. That's the great thing about a community effort and it's great to be a part of it, creating a warm fuzzy feeling inside :-) Polyglot 22:31, 16 August 2005 (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 Shashe. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Shashe~enwiktionary 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
