François Grosjean

Hello! Would you, by any chance, be the same François Grosjean as the one with the article on this website? I think it's fantastic to see experts contributing to Wikipedia, and I wish you a very pleasant and enjoyable time editing here. Although I'm no psycholinguist, I've been editing Wikipedia for a while now, and I have come to learn a lot about how it works and about its coverage of linguistics articles. If you need any help with any part of Wikipedia, then I'll be most willing to lend you a hand. You can ask me here, as I'll be watching the page, or on my talk page if you prefer. All the best — Mr. Stradivarius ^♫ 14:02, 19 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your kind words. I am indeed that same person. I'll certainly call on you if I need help; thank you for having offered it. Francois grosjean (talk) 16:23, 20 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

You're more than welcome. At this point, I should probably let you know about Wikipedia's policy of using your real name as a username. Although it hasn't happened to you so far, it is often the case that new users who use a famous name as their username get their accounts blocked until their identity can be proved. This is purely a technical matter, and is to avoid people being impersonated - we have quite a few editors who have their own articles. If you have a spare moment, you might want to consider proving your identity to avoid any confusion. An email to info-en@wikimedia.org from an official email address (or similar) should do the trick.

Many thanks for your warning. I'll write to the address you have given me. With best wishes. FG.

Hello there. I just noticed that there is a new user named User:Francois Grosjean, and I am worried about possible impersonation issues. Could you comment over at User talk:Francois Grosjean#Your username as to whether you are the owner of that account or not?
