User talk:Cyberman~enwikibooks

You know, your how to cause havok book just evolves into millitary / covert / guerrlia operations eventually, so why not just take the material from US army field manuals, many of which are freely availible (copyright wise), in an digital format and adapt the material for here? --Anon

Cyberman, stop being stupid.. Cyberman

BOTM, April 2005
Hey... I've checked the history for How To Build A Computer, and saw that you made some edits to it. It's been nomintated for Book Of The Month, and it would be good if you could cast a vote for it. You can do so Here. --Noogz 07:47, 21 Mar 2005 (UTC)

How can i contribute?
Hey i have been looking at ur 90 days to calculus II, and was wondering what you would like done, because i have plenty of time (currently writing A level Maths book) but if u want me to contribute /fill in a page or ten..Just contact me --Mitchc 07:41, 24 August 2005 (UTC)

Electronics Wikibook
I saw your comment on the Electronics Wikibook, and I understand your sentiment that the current incarnation of the book is far to expansive and "too physics intense". My proposed solution (although i have moved it beyond the stage of a meer proposal) is to expand the Electrical Engineering bookshelf. In the EE bookshelf, we have broken alot of the topics down into smaller, more focused wikibooks that are geared towards an engineer, and not towards a general physicist. This way, we can get directly to the heart of the matter, and not be bogged down the with mathematical physics details. If you want to help out with this project, it would be very appreciated. --Whiteknight 20:24, 17 October 2005 (UTC)

How to Cause Havoc
I wanted to let you know that the book How to Cause Havoc has been nominated for deletion at WB:VFD. Further more, I am going through to temporarily delete any images or text which are deemed to be offensive enough to consitute vandalism. For starters, I have deleted the page Causing Havoc/Preface, because it contained an image of a middle finger, and a statement that essentially said "screw you" to other wikibooks contributers. This kind of material is clearly unacceptable in wikibooks, and this comment constitutes a final warning that additional contributions of that kind (even in the context of a book) could easily be considered vandalism, and you will be labled as a vandal. I don't mean to come off as attacking you, but i want to warn you that these kinds of things can get a user in trouble. -- 19:37, 5 December 2005 (UTC)

Introduction to Psychology
I'm very interested in contributing to your Introduction_to_Psychology wikibook, but I'm wondering what thoughts or concerns you have in relations to the Psychology wikibook. From the table of contents it would seem both have difference scopes. Do you plan on keeping them seperate? Tom Foolery 21:04, 19 December 2005 (UTC)

Some suggestions if you want to be helpful
I've been looking over some of the things that you have done for your new Wikibook College Survival Guide. Don't worry, I'm not trying to delete this content or anything like that.

Some things that would really help out administrators if you are trying to reorganize the content:


 * 1) Don't just copy and paste whole pages from one place on Wikibooks to another.  As a registered user you have the "Move" tab at the top of the page next to "edit this page" and "discussion".  This allows you to rename pages instead of having to do the copy and paste.  More important, it keeps the full edit history in tact for legal purposes, to let everybody know who added what and when.  By doing a copy and paste to somewhere else, this edit history is lost.  BTW, there is a procedure to merge two forked pages back into one, but it is a pain in the rear to do and can only be done by an administrator.  It would be better to avoid going through that hassle if possible.
 * 2) Please don't just blank pages.  While that is eventually caught and reviewed, it is difficult to try and determine exactly why the page was deleted.  There is a page markup tag that uses the syntax    that lets administrators know that the content needs to be removed.  This give the opportunity to get a second opinion on why it needs to go (I use that template even) and means the content is usually deleted much earlier than through blanking.  Page blanking is also a common vandalism tactic, so it generally takes much more time to go through examining page blankings as opposed to reviewing deletion requests that state a reasonable justification for its removal.

None of this is actually required of users, but it is a way to be polite and be able to keep friendly relations with the people who are working to police the content. BTW, thank you for contributing to Wikibooks, and I hope that you continue to help us through your continued involvement here. --Rob Horning 03:10, 31 March 2006 (UTC)

Blank pages
Generally, there shouldn't be any blank pages. If you don't need a page, please mark it for deletion with delete. --Derbeth talk 19:34, 6 April 2006 (UTC)

Cyberman Psychology
Don't forget about this! I suggest that you move your notes and updates thus far to Introduction to Psychology and its talk pages and mark Cyberman Psychology for deletion with delete. If you would rather work on it separately from Introduction to Psychology, move its pages to "User:Cyberman/Psychology" to signify that it's not a separate book. Best regards, --Hagindaz 06:17, 15 April 2006 (UTC)

Talk:A+_Certification
I submitted an idea to break the A+ Certification book up from a single monolithic page into a multi-page book format. Since you are a major contributor over there, I would definately appreciate your input on this matter. If the general concensus is to go ahead with this new structure (or a variant thereof) I will gladly put in the time to make the changes myself. --Whiteknight (talk) (projects) 15:18, 25 May 2006 (UTC)

Image copyright problem with Image:5percent-bar.png

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 Cyberman. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Cyberman~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 23:07, 17 March 2015 (UTC)
