Vandalism warning[edit]
According to the new user log, this user created the sockpuppet User:Paul August — an apparent attempt to impersonate the Wikipedia user of that name — and then immediately used the latter ID to do nothing but vandalism. I have blocked this username for 3 days for creating a sockpuppet for user impersonation and vandalism. Further similar disruptive activities will result in a permanent block. ~ Jeff Q (talk) 14:14, 9 July 2006 (UTC)
- Oops! I noticed that Aphaia has already blocked this account permanently for the above offenses (justifiable as there is conclusive evidence that this user perpetrated the impersonation, which is a permanent-block offense). Furthermore, we now have evidence that this user is tied to other vandalisms, including the Wazzawazzawaz (talk · contributions) incident, all apparently perpetrated by anon IP 216.164.203.90 (talk · contributions). ~ Jeff Q (talk) 15:25, 9 July 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 Coldcat. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Coldcat~enwikiquote 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
