Welcome change
Hello, DerekSquared, and welcome to the Simple English Wiktionary!
We hope you will be happy editing here. Some helpful pages to begin with are Wiktionary:Community Portal, Wiktionary:Useful, Help:Contents, Wiktionary:Rules, Wiktionary:How to change a page, and Help:Creating a new entry.
If you want to talk with other members or ask a question, you can visit Wiktionary:Simple talk. Administrators can also help you with more difficult problems. You can also ask me for help. The best way to do that is to leave a message on my talk page. Just remember to sign your messages on talk pages by typing "~~~~" (four tildes) at the end of your words.
Good luck and happy editing! 00:43, 29 August 2022 (UTC)
Welcoming users change
Hello there. There is no need for you to welcome editors who have renamed users. They are not editing here on purpose, and while a welcome message is nice, it is likely that they don't intend to edit here so a welcome message is unnecessary. --Ferien (talk) 20:24, 30 March 2023 (UTC)
- I'll try to take that into consideration next time. DerekSquared (talk) 21:56, 30 March 2023 (UTC)
The user you warned was already locked (see Special:Contributions/Retardhater), so a warning was not needed. Please check user status when sending warnings in future. MathXplore (talk) 09:04, 18 April 2023 (UTC)
Welcoming WMF staff change
As same as global renamers that you welcomed previously, sending a welcome message is nice, but it is likely that WMF staff (User talk:Quiddity (WMF)) don't intend to edit here so a welcome message is maybe not needed. If you strongly believe it is needed, please let us know why.
This is not your first time to recieve messages about welcoming users. If you have any further questions about when and when not to welcome users, you may want to ask questions at Wiktionary:Simple talk. Thank you for your attention. MathXplore (talk) 09:13, 10 May 2023 (UTC)
- I will take the time to ask when I get the chance. DerekSquared (talk) 09:26, 10 May 2023 (UTC)
I'm not sure what Barras would think about this, but to be safe I suggest avoiding to make changes to archives made by others. MathXplore (talk) 07:30, 19 May 2023 (UTC)
- I thought the unsigned template was to be substituted. Also, I thought UTC was important clarification on unsigned tags. DerekSquared (talk) 07:34, 19 May 2023 (UTC)
Did you check this before sending a welcome message? MathXplore (talk) 04:20, 21 May 2023 (UTC)
- I did not check, but I clearly should have. I said this because it wouldn't help to lie, so I had to be open and honest here. DerekSquared (talk) 05:20, 21 May 2023 (UTC)
