None
I think your usage note is a little off...isn't none supposed to be conjucated with a plural in all other cases? E.g. None were qualified? Singular would only be Not one was qualified right? --Connel MacKenzie 00:01, 30 May 2005 (UTC)

P.S. I hadn't even noticed you are a newcomer, as your contributions are excellent. Thank you! --Connel MacKenzie 00:05, 30 May 2005 (UTC)


 * I'm fairly sure it can be both . At any rate, it's certainly treated as a plural more often if not only because it tends to sounds more "natural".


 * Thanks. Colin 00:14, 30 May 2005 (UTC)


 * You're welcome. And thank you for the links.  But they seem to support what I was saying - it technically can be sigular, but in practice never is.  One style writer prescribed against the plural, then after being overwhelmed with protests retracted his prescription.  Anyhow, keep up the great contributions.


 * Oh, also, if you could dig up some citations for dookie it would give it a much better chance at survival.


 * Lastly, I must mention how neat it is to meet a Colin. The names Connel and Colin I believe both trace back to Conan, in the mighty warrior sense.  Either varient is rare, so um, hello!  --Connel MacKenzie 19:04, 24 Jun 2005 (UTC)

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 Colin. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Colin~enwiktionary 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 23:41, 17 March 2015 (UTC)
