User talk:Mike dill

Hello, Mike Dill. (I'm guessing that Dill is a surname) Welcome to Wikipedia.

A few tips for you to start going. (I'll send more if I see that I can help you :-)

Just edit stuff off the cuff for a while. We like that!
When you have time, check out Wikipedia:Welcome, newcomers + the links in there.
You can sign your stuff on talk pages with ~~~~ It will convert to your username + the time. "anon" is fine too.
If puzzled, put a question on Wikipedia:Village pump, or feel free to ask me on my talk page if it's a very general question.
Most of all, have fun but take our work seriously!

Your old account

Hi Mike, about five years ago I discovered your old account, Mike Dill, and I've just realised the connection to your current username. The user page for your old account had been deleted because there was no user by that name in the existing Wikipedia database. I re-created the account and restored the user page. What would you like me to do with it now? It seems a shame to just redirect it because of the old discussion, but at the same time it might be worth noting the connection with your current account.

Also, Wikipedia started in 2001, rather than 1998, as it says on your user page. The contributions from both your accounts from 2001 are not easily accessible due to bug 34873, but they can still be viewed through the Nostalgia Wikipedia, a copy of the Wikipedia database from 20 December 2001. Here are the relevant links for your new username and your old username. Graham87 03:57, 10 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
