Thank You!

I have so much respect for you as an organization that is acting in a socially responsible way and blacking out in opposition to SOPA and PIPA. Thank you so much! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 166.250.11.140 (talk) 00:12, 18 January 2012 (UTC)

SOPA/PIPA blackout

Just a suggestion but maybe instead of a blackout, a static page defining/explaining SOPA/PIPA. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Obezor (talkcontribs) 00:43, 18 January 2012 (UTC)

Merge user accounts

I've ended up with two user accounts: this one and another I use on the Russian wikipedia with a different user name. I wasn't aware this was a problem until yesterday when I noticed I was still logged in on my Russian account when I came here. Is this something I need to rectify and is there any way I can merge my accounts together if needed? Quantumsilverfish (talk) 04:19, 18 January 2012 (UTC).

: I think this falls under unifying accounts. See this page (I can't get the shortcut to work) [http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:Unified_login Unifed Login] RudolfRed (talk) 05:11, 19 January 2012 (UTC)
