User talk:Dennis G. Jerz~enwikibooks

Hello. I was just wondering what your module entitled Bush 1945 was supposed to be. If you're trying to make a citation, there are better ways to do it. You might want to look at Manual of Style, which has a section on footnotes and endnotes. Thanks, and welcome to Wikibooks. Gentgeen 07:09, 1 December 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for the comment. I'm not exactly making a citation to that article -- there is already a Wikipedia article for that source, and I plan to link to it. I'm trying to create a place where I and a group of other scholars will be able to post annotations of that article. Those annotations won't necessarily be neutral, and they are intended to be focused on the value of the article to researchers who are studying social software. But since the file naming conventions of Wikipedia are pretty strong, I may change that. It may also be that Wikibooks isn't the best home for this project -- I'm still experimenting with the possibilities. Dennis G. Jerz 07:19, 1 December 2007 (UTC)

Wikiversity, interwiki links
Hi Dennis G. Jerz. If I understand your project correctly, you really should be doing this on Wikiversity, not Wikibooks, since there are going to be both original research aspects and POV aspects (WV was created for this sort of thing). I can import your modules over if you like.

BTW, if you want to link to a Wikipedia article, you just put a "w:" inside the link before the article name, and a "|" after. For example, while Bubble gum will make a redlink to Bubble gum on Wikibooks (or Wikiversity), Bubble gum will create Bubble gum. -- SB_Johnny | PA! 10:25, 1 December 2007 (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 Dennis G. Jerz. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Dennis G. Jerz~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 23:09, 17 March 2015 (UTC)
