User talk:Grace E. Dougle~enwikinews

Welcome
, welcome to Wikinews! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are a few good links for newcomers:

Our key policies - if you read anything, read these! Here a few pointers to help you get to know Wikinews: There are always things to do on Wikinews: By the way, you can sign your name on Talk pages using four tildes ( &#126;&#126;&#126;&#126; ), which produces your name and the current date. If you have any questions, you can ask them at the water cooler or to anyone on the Welcommittee, or ask me on my Talk page. Again, welcome! &mdash; Doldrums(talk) 15:19, 26 January 2007 (UTC)

Article split
I've let a comment on the Urban planning article that you might want to respond to. Thanks for digging up the sources, I've explained our template for them on the talk page of the article. Main thing is, I want to see if other people agree with me that this could be split into a number of short articles and a new category added to group them. --Brian McNeil / talk 13:23, 4 February 2007 (UTC)

Italian football story
Please not that we cannot copy stories from Wikipedia, since their licence is GFDL and it conflicts with our cc-by-2.5 licence.--Steven Fruitsmaak (Reply) 15:21, 4 February 2007 (UTC)


 * Have rewritten at Policeman killed in football-related violence in Italy/Temp, could you check the spelling? thx.--Steven Fruitsmaak (Reply) 18:37, 4 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Moved to Policeman killed in football-related violence in Italy after deleting the copyvio. --Brian McNeil / talk 18:43, 4 February 2007 (UTC)

Urban Planning...
Great work...

Assuming the soloution suggested on the talk page is acceptable, and the articles aren't copyvio keep going :)

BTW Are you in Urban Planning professionally?

Barnstar
I'm glad you appreciated the barnstar, we need more contributors like yourself who quietly fix minor problems and improve things. You probably qualify as a WikiGnome, and yes - that's a compliment. ;-) --Brian McNeil / talk 00:31, 17 February 2007 (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 Grace E. Dougle. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Grace E. Dougle~enwikinews 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 23:18, 17 March 2015 (UTC)

Renamed
 This account has been renamed as part of single-user login finalisation. If you own this account you can |log in using your previous username and password for more information. If you do not like this account's new name, you can choose your own using this form after logging in: . -- Keegan (WMF) (talk) 06:31, 21 April 2015 (UTC)
