Scivl

A belated welcome!

The welcome may be belated, but the cookies are still warm!

Here's wishing you a belated welcome to Wikipedia, Scivl. I see that you've already been around a while and wanted to thank you for your contributions. Though you seem to have been successful in finding your way around, you may benefit from following some of the links below, which help editors get the most out of Wikipedia:

• Introduction
• The five pillars of Wikipedia
• Contributing to Wikipedia
• How to edit a page
• Help pages
• How to write a great article
• Editor's index to Wikipedia

Also, when you post on talk pages you should sign your name using four tildes (~~~~); that should automatically produce your username and the date after your post.

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! If you have any questions, feel free to leave me a message on my talk page, consult Wikipedia:Questions, or place {{helpme}} on your talk page and ask your question there.

Again, welcome! Sam Sailor 10:10, 12 November 2018 (UTC)

@Sam Sailor: Many thanks! Indeed I have been a user for quite some time, but I have not been very active. I have now attempted preparing an article and am hoping that, overall, I got it right. I appreciate your help. Scivl (talk) 10:22, 12 November 2018 (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 Pvanleeuwen. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Pvanleeuwen~enwiki 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. If you think you might own all of the accounts with this name and this message is in error, please visit Special:MergeAccount to check and attach all of your accounts to prevent them from being renamed.

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

Erfahrungen Englische Wikipedia

Hallo Mitbenutzer der WP,

durch Zufall sehe ich Ihren Beitrag im Teahouse der englischen WP, betreffend eine Übersetzung aus dem Deutschen. Meine Frage im gleichen Teahouse steht zwei Stellen darüber. Gerne würde ich Sie zu Ihren Erfahrungen befragen, da ich genau im gleichen Arbeitsprozess einer Übersetzung stecke. Diese habe ich gestern als neuen Artikel in Englisch lanciert - landete aber an Platz 2000 einer Liste, mit dem Hinweis, es könnte über 2 Monate dauern bis zu einer Freigabe des Artikels.

War es bei Ihnen auch so - oder ist der Wege einer offiziellen "Übersetzung" ein schnellerer?

Danke, Hannoverscher (talk) 10:23, 10 November 2018 (UTC)

November 2018

Hello, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. This is just a note to let you know that I've moved the draft that you were working on to Draft:Friedrich Wilhelm Arnold, from its old location at User:Scivl/Friedrich Wilhelm Arnold. This has been done because the Draft namespace is the preferred location for Articles for Creation submissions. Please feel free to continue to work on it there. If you have any questions about this, you are welcome to ask me on my talk page. Thank you. Sam Sailor 10:09, 12 November 2018 (UTC)

Your thread has been archived

Hi Scivl! You created a thread called help with my first article in en.wikipedia at Wikipedia:Teahouse, but it has been archived because there was no discussion for a few days. You can still find the archived discussion here. If you have any additional questions that weren't answered then, please create a new thread. Archival by Lowercase sigmabot III, notification delivery by Muninnbot, both automated accounts. You can opt out of future notifications by placing {{bots|deny=Muninnbot}} (ban this bot) or {{nobots}} (ban all bots) on your user talk page. Muninnbot (talk) 19:00, 15 November 2018 (UTC)
