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 ] for more information.
Hi MarkBA,


Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called MarkBA. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name MarkBA~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 ]. If you think you might own all of the accounts with this name and this message is in error, please visit ] to check and attach all of your accounts to prevent them from being renamed.
I noticed you recently created the article about ]. I just wanted to inform you that you can post any new Germany-related articles at ] and ]. Happy editing--]] 11:40, 24 September 2006 (UTC)


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.

HI I am currently working on Slovakian vilages and I compiled the ]. I am about half the way through I would be extremely grateful if you would help out. It would get done so much quicker and I would have motivation because at present I seem like the only one on the planet interested in mapping it out. See ] for the layout. The info can be quickly retrieved from the external link. Click on the district and it will list the municipalities. Click the one you want and it will come up with loads of basic info. To start with I am just copying the first page History and Geography and adding them to the starter articles. Then I cut and paste every page -quicker and just adjust the info. Want to help out? ] 12:13, 11 November 2006 (UTC)


Sorry for the inconvenience.
HI super well done. I was amazed that some places weren't on there yet. I am currently working on the Presov region Presov district about half the way through the region. You can start a different district in the Region if you like - I can set one up for you so all you have to do is copy mine and change the appropriate district and map and cat and info. It literally takes me 1 minute to start one. I'll set one up for you now ] 12:38, 11 November 2006 (UTC)


Yours,<br />]<br />Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation
I habe set up ] so to start the villages in this district just copy the text and paste it on the new one. Adjust the names and save. Then click on the external link and click VT district in the ast of Slovakia then click the right village and copy the last four lines of the top box of that page then paste it on the[REDACTED] page. Then type in the right info . You will need a calculator to work out population. Always list the area to 3 decimal places e.g 7.345km2 then x this by pop. density to find out population. Thisis quicker than finding the pop on the external link and is actually more accurate. You will soon get into the swing of things. All the best. If you want you cna start the next one right now and I will see how you do. Start ''']''' now] 12:48, 11 November 2006 (UTC)

Well done almost perfect. But you forgot to change history origin from 1397 to 1363 and forgot to change it to sk:Benkovce with ] at the bottom linking it to slovakian wikipedia. Other than that perfect I am impressed. You see you soon get the hang of it and can start them quickly like me. Just copy the page then retrieve the info tpye it in and save easy as that.

Why did I choose Slovakian municipalities?

Beleive me mate when I started on slovakian villages I think only ] and ] had articles on[REDACTED] with several other towns and this was only about 3 months ago!!
