Usage notes

 * The grammatical gender of Styx in the sense of the mythological river can be both masculine and feminine, but the feminine seems obsolete. Current grammar manuals suggest only masculine. (The feminine gender was proposed e. g. in a textbook for secondary schools by M. Blažek in 1877. ) However, when speaking about the goddess of the river, the feminine gender has to be used.

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 Theshibboleth. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Theshibboleth~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 00:19, 18 March 2015 (UTC)

testing by maligning fringer
I have every intention of filling out this template with all the above categories. The template sections (at level zero) are hiding themselves correctly. Perhaps that should be "" instead of zero though. For these first three sections, I'd like to have the 0th level filled, 5th and 10th (but not the ones in between just yet.) Mainly, I want to work out font and color issues in the next few days. Then, add the other sections as 0th, 5th and 10th levels. Lastly, add the fancy bgcolor gradient images, and *all* the intervening numberings...

For right now though, I need sleep. --Connel MacKenzie 07:42, 15 July 2005 (UTC)
