Please stop your persistent disruptive edits to Amsterdam. The following is the case:
You keep adding data on the "Amsterdam metropolitan area", citing a link to the Dienst Onderzoek en Statistiek about the population data of Stadsdeel Slotervaart. The fact is, that Amsterdam does not have a defined metropolitan area. Regions greater than the municipality of Amsterdam can be the Amsterdam COROP-area (outdated), the stadsgewest Amsterdam, or the Grootstedelijke Agglomeratie Amsterdam. Definitions the Central Bureau of Statistics uses to define these are: (data from CBS.nl
- COROP-area Amsterdam made in 1970, follows municipal borders. Population: 1,211,503. This should not be used, and is not used.
- Grootstedelijke Agglomeratie Amsterdam is an area which continuously built up, and can be accurately translated into Urban area (and is in the article on Amsterdam). Population: 1,021,870
- Stadsgewest Amsterdam is the Urban Area Amsterdam, plus all areas around it that are orientated on Amsterdam. This may include areas that are not continuously built up. I would agree with translating this into metropolitan area, but the information you keep adding to the article and this area differ in several ways:
- The Stadsgewest follows municipal borders. This means areas that are not orientated on Amsterdam, may be included within this area.
- The Stadsgewest has a population of 1,468,122. You keep changing the article to a number over two million living in the so-called "metropolitan area". I ask you, where do these 500.000 people live?
- Stadsgewest Amsterdam is used as a definition by the CBS, whatever you keep adding is not.
Please discuss this subject here or on Talk:Amsterdam before reverting more. --User:Krator (t c) 15:44, 13 July 2007 (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 Wiegerslikke. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Wiegerslikke~enwiki 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. If you think you might own all of the accounts with this name and this message is in error, please visit Special:MergeAccount to check and attach all of your accounts to prevent them from being renamed.
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
