Copyrighted sources[edit]
Peewee, I have deleted a number of your recent entries because they appear to be copyright violations from other sources such as Bartleby, AHD, or Merriam-Webster. Please do not copy such sources. If you would like to copy sources legitimately, you may copy from Webster 1913, various copies of which exist online, or other public domain sources. Please include the template {{webster}} if you bring Webster entries in, and format them according to Wiktionary conventions.
I have included our standard welcome text below for its links to our help files and guidelines. — Dvortygirl 07:54, 11 January 2006 (UTC)
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:

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!
Requested articles[edit]
The Resuested Articles pages are for you to request that someone else produce a definition for you. There is no point in adding a word then writing it yourself. SemperBlotto 13:11, 11 January 2006 (UTC)
Your account will be renamed[edit]
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 Peewee. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Peewee~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
