Hello,, welcome to Wikisource! Thanks for your interest in the project; we hope you'll enjoy the community and your work here. If you need help, see our help pages (especially Adding texts and Wikisource's style guide). You can discuss or ask questions from the community in general at the Scriptorium.

Hi, Maniwar,

I've marked Boortz's Commencement Speech as a copyvio, since the work you added has been copyright from 2001. Sadly, Wikisource cannot accept texts which are still protected under copyright, unless such works are licensed under the GFDL or a GFDL-compatible license.

I was not able to find anything which indicated the commencement speech has been licensed, so I am afraid to say that the work will likely be deleted shortly. I hope this does not deter you from further involvement here at Wikisource.—Zhaladshar (Talk) 23:38, 7 September 2006 (UTC)
 * that bites! I'm going to write him and ask for permission. What would I need to do? Maniwar 23:40, 7 September 2006 (UTC)
 * I've sent the author a letter inquiring his permission. By the way thanks for the welcome and I'm not sure I can contribute much, but I will try. Now back to the question, I've written the author, what do I need to ask for permission to place it on WikiSource? Maniwar 23:47, 7 September 2006 (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 Maniwar. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Maniwar~enwikisource 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 23:29, 17 March 2015 (UTC)
