User talk:LJP~enwiki

Luke, this is your talk page. Here other people (or you) can talk about you. Article pages have talk pages too. If there are things that people have written that you want to ask them about instead of just changing it you can do that in the talk page. Other times, the talk pages are used as forums for discussing what a particular article should be like, especially for controversially articles about which people argue. Remember in writing articles to try to take the stance of NPOV (neutral point of view). --Esrogs 00:20, 10 May 2004 (UTC)

Tip of the day...

Advanced signatures

It is good Wikiquette to sign your messages on talk pages. This is done by typing ~~~~ (four tildes). Do not sign article pages.

Some users have fancy signatures with lots of colors and links. Here are 3 different ways to do that:

1. Edit directly in the signature box
   1. Go to your Preferences and type some wiki-markup code (and/or HTML markup code) into the signature box to augment your stock signature
   2. Check the box that says "Treat the above as Wiki markup"
   3. Press the "Save" button. Or...
2. Use an HTML editor
   1. Open an HTML editor (e.g. Adobe Dreamweaver or Microsoft Expression Web)
   2. Design how you want your signature to look, putting links in it by adding brackets [[ ]]
   3. Select it and click the HTML tab and copy the code of your text into the signature box mentioned above.
   4. Be sure not to copy the tags at the beginning and end of the code that say <p> </p>. Or...
3. Adapt someone else's signature
   1. Find a signature you like
   2. Click edit this page
   3. Copy and paste the signature into your signature box (see #1 above), but change all the links to your links: you do not want your signature leading to someone else's user page!

Do not use images, templates, or external links in your signature. Please ensure your custom signature complies with the relevant guideline. Use special code for displayed pipe character.

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 LJP. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name LJP~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
