Hello, I'm Oshwah. I noticed that in this edit to AfriForum, you removed content without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry, the removed content has been restored. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. ~Oshwah~^{(talk) (contribs)} 12:19, 14 December 2017 (UTC)

Username concerns

Welcome to Wikipedia. I noticed that your username, "Kallie Kriel", may not meet Wikipedia's username policy because it is the same as a notable person, Kallie Kriel, and you have been editing articles related to Kriel. As a result, we need to take extra vigilance with this account to guard against impersonation. If you believe that your username does not violate our policy, please leave a note here explaining why. If you are not Kriel, you may ask for a change of username by completing this form, or you may simply create a new account for editing. If you are Kriel, you need to email the Volunteer Response Team to verify your identity. Thank you. —C.Fred (talk) 12:29, 14 December 2017 (UTC)
