Moving Agnes DeMille to Agnes de Mille

Based on your having made substantial edits to the article on Agnes de Mille, I figured you might be interested in joining the discussion at Talk:Agnes DeMille on whether the article should be moved back to Agnes de Mille from Agnes DeMille. Timeineurope 10:04, 29 August 2007 (UTC)

Alicia Alonso

May I ask your permission to undo your edit to Talk:Alicia Alonso? There was already a tag at the top of the page for WikiProjects Dance and Ballet but it had the extra field, "nested=yes." Another Wiki. dance editor has been developing all sorts of extra tags beyond the "Ballet=yes" tag. Robert Greer (talk) 02:58, 4 March 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 Lector. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Lector~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

ArbCom elections are now open!

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
