Hi Laube. Welcome to Wikipedia. I noticed that the article you added at Holacanthus tricolor is from wetwebmedia.com. It appears that their usage policy [1] is not compatible with Wikipedia's licence (which allows our content to be used by anyone - including for commercial purposes). Do you have the author's permission to use the text here? And if so, is the author aware of the terms of the GFDL? We also need information on the image you uploaded at Image:Holocanthus Tricolor.jpg - did you take the image yourself or do you have information on the source? Please see Wikipedia:Copyrights for more information on our policies. Welcome again and thanks for joining the project. Regards -- sannse (talk) 19:08, 13 Oct 2004 (UTC)

The image at Image:Holocanthus_Tricolor.jpg was taken by me, in my own aquarium. The article was an extract from wetwebmedia.com. I now realize what their policy is.

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