Talk:Wikimedia/Wikipedia

taking a look
I followed a 'shameless plug' here - so I'm giving it a look :-) cheers, Privatemusings (talk) 22:09, 31 July 2010 (UTC)


 * Excellent. I never got involved in Wikipedia, so I'm a poor candidate to really improve upon it.  If you'll notice, SB Johnny actually started the book.  Unfortunately, he's not around any longer, but I try to keep his legacy alive. – Adrignola talk 22:53, 31 July 2010 (UTC)

timeline
I added a URL to what I think is probably the best resource I've found concerning the timeline - is this ok in wikibooks terms? (a link in the text?) - when I get the chance, I'll try and contact the author about how he feels about bringing some information over - it's currently copyright 'all rights reserved' (fair enough!).

 * I didn't notice this message while checking RC. I've answered on your talk page. Regards Kayau ( talk &#124; email &#124; contribs ) 14:21, 13 August 2010 (UTC)
 * no worries - have replied there too.. basically I'll try and see if I can adapt some of the information without being rude to the author (or infringing copyright) in due course - thanks for your cleanup :-) cheers, Privatemusings (talk) 01:50, 16 August 2010 (UTC)

Is this place Wikipedia itself?
This may seem like a weird question, but I got really confused. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2600:1700:3a20:25b0:d472:6b88:bc26:4bea (talk • contribs) 14:27, 1 July 2019 (UTC)
 * Nope. This is Wikibooks. Vermont (discuss • contribs) 14:29, 1 July 2019 (UTC)
 * We're a sister project to Wikipedia: operated under the aegis of the same charitable organization, and on friendly terms with Wikipedia, but where Wikipedia means to build an encyclopedia, we mean to build a library of textbooks. This means we can go into more detail on specific subjects than Wikipedia does. --Pi zero (discuss • contribs) 17:25, 1 July 2019 (UTC)
