A welcome from Sputnik

Hi, Aleph73~enwiki, Welcome to Wikipedia!

Hello, bonjour, salut, privyet, konichiwa, shalom, hola, salve, sala'am, bonjourno, and hi! I'm Sputnik. I noticed that you were new and/or have yet to receive any messages so I just thought I'd pop in to say "hello". We're glad to have you in our community! I hope you like this place — I sure do — and want to stay. Wikipedia can be a little intimidating at first, since it's so big but we won't bite so Be Bold and get what you know down in microchips! If you do make a mistake, that's fine, we'll assume good faith and just correct you: it'll take a few seconds maximum! I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Though we all make goofy mistakes, here is what Wikipedia is not. If you have any questions or concerns, don't hesitate to see the help pages or add a question to the village pump. The Community Portal can also be very useful. If you want to play around with your new Wiki skills the Sandbox is for you. Here are a few links to get you started:

• Always sign your posts on talk pages! That way, others will know who left which comments. You can sign your name using three tildes (~). If you use four, you can add a datestamp too.
• The Five Pillars of Wikipedia
• Simplified Ruleset
• How to edit a page
• Editing, policy, conduct, and structure tutorial
• Picture tutorial
• How to write a great article
• Naming conventions
• Manual of Style
• Wikipedia Glossary

And remember:

• Be Bold!,
• Don't let grumpy users scare you off.,
• Learn from others,
• Play nicely with others, and
• Contribute, Contribute, Contribute!.

• If you ever think a page or image should be deleted, please list it at the votes for deletion page. There is also a votes for undeletion page if you want to retrieve something that you think should not have been deleted.
• If you're bored and want to find something to do, try the Random page button in the sidebar, or check out the Open Task message in the Community Portal.

• P.S. I'm happy to help new users. Feel free to leave a message on my talk page if you need help with anything or simply wish to say hello. :)

Happy Wiki-ing!

The nice big picture of Leigh Hunt

Hey, Aleph73. That's a nice picture of Leigh Hunt you've found! Much better than the small version I had originally uploaded. Was there any special reason you gave it the exact same name as the old one, Image:LeighHunt5.jpg, so that it overwrote it? It's not that I wanted to keep the old one, which is merely an inferior version, but it did make me jump to see the now huge picture appearing in The Country Wife, a page that I mainly authored. I'd used the "frame" code to insert the image, since it was so small, and the result was that with the big image, it suddenly appeared as huge in the article, as if Leigh Hunt was most important person in it. Just a thought, and I hope you don't mind my mentioning it, but it might be a good idea to check out what happens to the linked articles when you decide to overwrite an image. But again, and especially, that's a very cool image! Best, Bishonen | talk 16:28, 23 May 2006 (UTC).

Bishonen forgot to mention it, here are the markup instructions for images: Wikipedia:Extended_image_syntax. Cheers! Dr Zak 04:21, 24 May 2006 (UTC)

Technics(brand)

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Technics(brand), and it appears to be very similar to another wikipedia page: Technics. It is possible that you have accidentally duplicated contents, or made an error while creating the page— you might want to look at the pages and see if that is the case.

This message was placed automatically, and it is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article and it would be appreciated if you could drop a note on the maintainer's talk page. CorenSearchBot (talk) 15:31, 17 January 2008 (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 Aleph73. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Aleph73~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
