Please do not blank pages
I noticed your recent work at Modern Greek/Contents. Everything seems good, except that while you were merging, you made three pages blank: Greek: Introduction, Greek: Alphabet, and Greek: Phonology.

When you make a blank page, what happens is that there are still links at Wikibooks and the Internet. Some readers will use these links, and instead of finding the Modern Greek/Contents page where you did all the work, they will find useless blank pages. Thus please do not make blank pages because they will stop some readers from reading what you worked on!

The good news is that I was able to fix the blank pages by changing them into redirects. Briefly, you can redirect one page to another by replacing the page with one line like this:


 * 1) redirect Modern Greek/Contents

It helped much that you had typed a "summary" (in the box just above the "Save page" button) each time that you blanked a page, explaining that you were merging. From there, I knew that you were not deleting content, and was able to make the redirects. Thanks for contributing to Wikibooks, and I hope that you continue to work at Wikibooks and provide a "summary" with your edits. --Kernigh 03:25, 4 February 2006 (UTC)

Modern Greek Module
I am just writing to thank you for all the hard work you have put into the Modern Greek Wikibook. I have been trying to teach myself Greek on the internet and this wikibook is by far the best option available. Thankyou for building the book into what it now is, mainly without help. Cheers again!

Replacing the Recordings
I also wanted to say thanks! I am also learning modern greek. My boyfriend is Greek, and I was wondering if it would be helpful to replace the recordings with his voice? I'm sure he could find the time to do it. But I have never added anything to a wiki before, are there guidelines for how to do the reading, recording formats, etc?

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 Bcrowell. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Bcrowell~enwikibooks 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 23:02, 17 March 2015 (UTC)
