Usurp

To start this process, please add a new section to your Wikipedia talk page that confirms you are that user. Once complete, please leave a message on my talk page. Thanks. -withinfocus 23:29, 21 September 2007 (UTC)

Don't see the need to wait for anything. You are now renamed. -withinfocus 20:45, 23 September 2007 (UTC)

To do this in the future, save the image (highest quality) to your computer, then go to Commons to upload it. Their instructions are fairly straightforward. Make sure the image has good source and license information - Commons folks are very picky about having complete information. – Mike.lifeguard | ^talk 16:42, 11 October 2007 (UTC)

Thank you. Shalom 16:55, 11 October 2007 (UTC)

Please take note of when images are located at Commons. If that's the case, nobody will see comments you leave on the image's talk page here, since the image page doesn't exist - it's transcluded from Commons. Instead, follow the link to the Commons description page and leave your comment on that talk page. I've already moved your comment from Image talk:Alcohols from ketone via reduction.png to commons:Image talk:Alcohols from ketone via reduction.png‎– Mike.lifeguard | ^talk 22:50, 19 October 2007 (UTC)

Chess Puzzles

Looking forward to puzzles 4 thru 7

Chess:Optional homeworks

Optional homework 3

Problem 1

I don't understand why lose of one white bishop caused immediate victory of black. I'm a bad chess player; maybe, that's why I would prefer to spend some time with disadvantage and (possibly and likely) lose later, rather than to surrender outright.

Optional homework 2

Problem 1

Why Qd4 and not Qe7? The black queen would attack the knight, and if the white knight goes away, the black queen would eat the white pawn.

Problem 2

Yes, very beautiful and complex sequence of moves.

Optional homework 1

Theoretically, I understand that it's possible, trivial and easy: black king has nothing to protect himself. But without a chessboard nearby it's difficult to make so many moves.

Thank you for the chess home-works!

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 Shalom (usurped). To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Shalom (usurped)~enwikibooks 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
