JavaScript page moves
What was wrong with the style of having the cover as the first page of the book and the table of contents second? Seems rather odd to me for the cover not to be the first page of the book. --dark lama  22:46, 30 September 2007 (UTC)

There currently isn't a manual of style for the book, and the main manual of style implements that the cover be as PAGENAME/Cover. Btw, we do need to make a manual of style so that all is understood. Extremecircuitz 22:49, 30 September 2007 (UTC)


 * If you think it would help sure. I think most books haven't really bothered with writing down a specific style for the book or gotten to the point where one was thought to be needed. Having a cover for the main page of a book is much an accepted style as any. I believe whats referred to in WB:MOS as a title page is different from the covers used by JavaScript and other books. Its by no means describes what the book is about. I would prefer to have the cover page back as the main page of the book. It doesn't really make much sense to have it otherwise. --dark lama  23:40, 30 September 2007 (UTC)


 * Okay Then Extreme circuitz 00:22, 1 October 2007 (UTC)


 * I noticed that you moved some pages, but had copy+pasted others when trying to switch pages around. You should avoid copy+pasting when you intended to move pages around, because it causes unintended duplications with the original contribution history missing. I've already gone ahead and fixed pages that I noticed which were done this way. --dark lama  13:57, 1 October 2007 (UTC)


 * Thank you for that. Even though I joined WikiPedia several months ago (recently I joined this wiki) I've never used the move feature, so I'm not sure how to move one page to another and then another page to where that page had been. I don't know how to get rid of the redirect to move another page to that. Am I making sense to you? Extreme circuitz 21:12, 1 October 2007 (UTC)


 * This is actually a very common area of confusion among new users. I'm going to start working on a help page about it: HERE.
 * Take a look at it after a while, and let me know if it answers your questions. --Whiteknight (Page) (Talk) 21:19, 1 October 2007 (UTC)

What is Wikibooks
I undid your last edit to this page. "Non-fiction" was the correct word in that sentence, although it is a little ambiguous. What the sentence means to say is that many books which are called "non-fiction" are not instructional and are therefore not textbooks. In other words, we only accept a subset of all non-fiction books.

Also, all fiction books are prohibited here, not just a subset. It's confusing, to be sure. Can you maybe suggest a wording that would be less confusing? --Whiteknight (Page) (Talk) 21:37, 1 October 2007 (UTC)


 * Oh, okay. Perhaps it could be made a little more explanatory as to the instructionality part? Extreme circuitz 22:27, 1 October 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 Extremecircuitz. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Extremecircuitz~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)
