:*Could you elaborate what you mean? I assume it has something to do with the single unified log-in... -Jéské Couriano ^{(v^_^v)} 07:32, 2 January 2009 (UTC)

:**I originally registered with the target name at Commons + simple, where no warning was given about automatic registration across projects. Over here at en&de Wikipedia one also was notified after registering, leaving me with a new account on en&de-wikiprojects. So I hoped it would be somehow possible to move/rename/merge the new account(s?) on en&de.wiki to the name I already used on Commons; as the Commons-account at some time already registered me across projects without me knowing. (P.S.: In case it is important, as I don't know if the en and de accounts are 'the same' or separate: I also asked for a rename on de.wiki.) Winterwater (talk) 15:49, 2 January 2009 (UTC)

:{{clerk-note}} Sorry this has been so complicated. First, your page shouldn't be at User:887mhz. That is supposed to be the place where you write something about yourself. If you want to write about a radio station, it should probably be at Nyota Radio Télévision. You'll notice that link is red because the page doesn't exist yet. The material about the radio station should go there. However, the wording has to be neutral, which you have worked on, with edits such as [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User:887mhz&diff=266566775&oldid=266566484 this], and the article must give evidence as to why this particular radio station is notable. If these criteria aren't met, the page could be deleted. Useight (talk) 23:48, 26 January 2009 (UTC)
