Hello Rex

Unless I am mistaken identities (in this case, receive my apologies in advance), may I know where are the negociations with Izynews going ?

Hi Anthere,

You are right, I was the one who negotiated with mr. Schwanitz of Izynews. The results:

• There is a new image policy. Media files which are marked to be displayed on Wikipedia only will not be showed.
• In the articles about Wikipedia, the word Wikipedia will not be replaced by "Encyclopedie" (encyclopedia).
• The story about the license texts has been solved.
• IzySoft will make sure that articles about Wikipedians will not appear in the Google index.
• In some case, IzySoft finds it still necessary to replace the formulation. I was not able to convince him not to do that.

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

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
