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!--Cspurrier 15:50, 20 June 2006 (UTC)

Your joke
I'd love to hear your joke! Be sure to tell me on my talk page. — THIS IS M ESSED OCKER  (TALK) 16:00, 20 June 2006 (UTC)

Please Help
I would please like to know why I blocked. This is my first day here and it is really scaring me. Wazzawazzawaz 17:35, 20 June 2006 (UTC)
 * For one thing, you blanked a high-profile page and constantly asked people if they wanted to hear jokes, and continued asking when they didn't want to hear the joke. — THIS IS M ESSED [[Image:R with umlaut.png]] OCKER (TALK) 18:24, 20 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Don't worry, you'll be unblocked it about a day, just please don't revert/blank things for no reason. Bawolff ☺☻[[image:smile.png]] 22:03, 20 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Continued trolling/harassment will result in increased block lengths. So I suggest you stop pestering people with unsolicited and persistent offers of narrating jokes to them. Cheers. PVJ [[Image:Flag of India.svg|25px]]  (Talk)(Opinions) 03:53, 9 July 2006 (UTC)

Hey
Wikinews would love to have you back....why not make an edit here and there?

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 Wazzawazzawaz. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Wazzawazzawaz~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 23:39, 17 March 2015 (UTC)
