Antoinette Pirie

Hi Gizmo. Welcome to Wikipedia!

We're trying to figure out what source was used for the fact that Pirie had 'investigated the effect of poison gases on the cornea' over at Template:Did you know nominations/Antoinette Pirie. If you remember which one it was, could you let us know? Thank you, Gobōnobō ⁺ ^c 21:25, 21 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Gobonobo , Hopefully this is where I should reply? My ref was this: van Heyningen, Ruth E. "Pirie, Antoinette (1905–1991)". Oxford Dictionary of National Biography. Oxford University Press. Retrieved 15 October 2013. Gizmo.

DYK for Antoinette Pirie

On 24 October 2013, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Antoinette Pirie, which you created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that ophthalmologist Antoinette Pirie investigated the effect of mustard gas on the cornea? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Antoinette Pirie. You are welcome to check how many hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, quick check) and it will be added to DYKSTATS if it got over 5,000. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page.

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