Caution[edit]
Two minutes after you created this user name, someone created a parallel ID, Coldcat (talk · contributions), then used that ID to disrupt Wikiquote activity. Because of this, I'm afraid that your user name, given its provocative English connotation — the kind often used by wiki vandals, but also by legitimate editors — looks suspiciously like a sockpuppet of the same user.
I hope that this suspicion is unfounded, that you will take the welcome message above as it was intended, and that you will help us to build a robust, entertaining, and information compilation of quotations here. Feel free to post any questions you may have to my talk page. ~ Jeff Q (talk) 14:24, 9 July 2006 (UTC)
- Well, that didn't take long. 216.164.203.90 (talk • contribs • global edits • page moves • block user • block log), a known vandal IP address who has participated in several 2-level vandalisms where one user pretends innocence, complained to Aphaia, "Why did you block my account Hotpussy?" This is the conclusive evidence I didn't have to justify a permanent block. The only thing new was this pathetic soul created 3 users this time. (I guess that demonstrates he can count.) I bow to Aphaia's superior wisdom. ~ Jeff Q (talk) 15:20, 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 Hotpussy. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Hotpussy~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
