Request for edit summary
[edit]When editing an article on Wikipedia there is a small field labelled "Edit summary" under the main edit-box. It looks like this:
The text written here will appear on the Recent changes page, in the page revision history, on the diff page, and in the watchlists of users who are watching that article. See m:Help:Edit summary for full information on this feature.
When you leave the edit summary blank, some of your edits could be mistaken for vandalism and may be reverted, so please always briefly summarize your edits, especially when you are making subtle but important changes, like changing dates or numbers. Thank you.

[edit]I am copying this from my own talk page, to ensure that we can resolve this amicably:
- Hello!! Look, first of all I wanted to apologize for being a bit rude and brusque in my comments on the Popper talk page. It was clearly inappropriate to "bitethe newcomers", as they call it here, but I had just come out of a frustrating discussion with a fanatical type who travels all around the 'pedia insisting that Einstein plagiarized basically all of his ideas. His writing style is really idiosyncratic, to use a neutral term, and this frustration carried over into my edit summary and the polemical tome of the remarks I made on the talk page. I promise not to do this again, but this place can get frustrating.
Nevertheless, I did have trouble understanding what you were trying to add to the article. This is probably because, if I understood you correctly, you translated it literally from some other language into English?? If that is the case, you should know as well as I do from translating many Italian articles, that literal translation often results in very bad formulations in the destination language. In any case, let me try to reformulate what I interpreted those sentences as saying in my own words and then we will find see where the problem lies. "Charles Taylor has suggested that Popper exploits his fame as an epistemologist to write articles diminishing the importance of philosophers of the continental tradition (as in Sartre, Heideger. etc??). According to Taylor, Popper's views are baseless." Is that the idea??--Lacatosias 16:24, 3 March 2006 (UTC)

Your account will be renamed
[edit]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 YoungSpinoza. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name YoungSpinoza~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
