editYour account will be renamed
editHello,
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 GRYE. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name GRYE~metawiki 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

I'm not sure why I'm on this list...? There does not appear to be another Grye user. Maybe something to do with User:Grye vs User:GRYE (caps)? Please clarify. (I am also generated on the list at User:Pathoschild/2015 sul rename confusion/page 3 Grye (talk) 16:06, 25 March 2015 (UTC)
Maybe due to a redirect? Grye (talk) 16:08, 25 March 2015 (UTC)
- Hi, you got the message only because User talk:GRYE is a redirect to this talk page. So no need to worry, you will not be renamed. Regards, --Stryn (talk) 16:09, 25 March 2015 (UTC)
