User talk:Danny~enwikibooks

Danny, welcome to Wikibooks!

I see you've been adding pages for the wikijunior project, and might have run up against a possible module naming issue. The Wikijunior Solar System page links to Mercury, which is currently not a page I'd suggest we send 10 year olds to. Additionally, all of the chemistry wikibooks, both of the existing astronomy wikibooks, and perhaps the medicine wikibooks might also desire a link to that page. For that reason we generally like it if some form of disambiguator is assigned to each book's modules preemtivly. Having said that, we've never established a standard system, but Book Title:Module Title, Book title: Module title, Module title (book title), and Book title - Module title are some of the more common conventions used. I prefer the psudo-namespace options, as there are talks of assigning every wikibook its own namespace. (see Help:Pages)

You also might like to checkout some of the content we have already developed. For example, the GAT book may have some useful modules for the Solar System project.

Wikijunior Solar System
Hello Danny, Thanks for your comments on WikiJunior Solar System. At the rate things are going, I'd be surprised if the magazine material were ready in 3 weeks. But I am making an effort to encourage people to stop adding content and start whipping it into shape. I am not certain there will even be a decision on the Kiki character by then, let alone the drawings we need.

Are you Danny Wool? WikiMediaFoundation Grantwriter? Can you give us some more information about the grant? Like telling us all more about who the Beck Foundation is, why they want these booklets, who they will be distributed by and how? Even at this stage of the project, I think it would help understand what to do with the book. The information at Wikijunior is not complete.

I stumbled onto the project a bit late, but I am still wondering why we didn't contact NASA about turning their solar system website into an educational booklet. I imagine that NASA might be willing to do that sort of thing if we could give them concrete information about the grant and the grantor.

Thanks for contributing to the module on Venus. Would you have any interest in signing up for any of the tasks on the proofreading plan? Do you think anyone will be interested in following a plan like that? Should I ditch the plan as a bad idea? Thanks for your thoughts on the proofreading process. --SV Resolution 02:20, 9 September 2005 (UTC)

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 Danny. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Danny~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)
