User talk:Film8ker~enwikibooks

Hello and welcome to Wikibooks!

Here are some tips to help you get started:
 * You should sign your name on Talk and vote pages using four tildes, like this: &#126;&#126;&#126;&#126;.
 * Remember to conduct any editing experiments in the sandbox.
 * If you're a Wikipedian, see Wikibooks for Wikipedians for a primer on how things work here (it's a little different).
 * If you want to base your work here on materials from Wikipedia, please use WB:RFI to bring the material over in compliance with the GFDL.
 * If you're an instructor and plan on using wikibooks for a class project, see Guidelines for class projects
 * Please say hello at the Staff Lounge with any questions or ideas.
 * Eventually, you might want to read the Manual of Style and Policies and Guidelines.
 * Please take a look at Naming policy before starting a new book.
 * Remember to maintain a Neutral point of view.
 * Explore, be bold in editing pages, and have fun!

You will find more resources in Community Portal. If you want to ask a question, visit the Study help desk, the Staff lounge, IRC channel or ask me personally on my talk page. For site news, see the Bulletin board. It might be an idea if you add this page to your "watchlist" so that you can see when any new information is posted there.

Good luck! -- Herby talk thyme 13:12, 18 January 2007 (UTC)

MMM pages & naming
Hi - I notice that you have created some new pages for MMM which look interesting. I actually don't know the answer to this myself but the pages might be named Movie Making Manual/DV/Contents rather than the way you have it. I don't see it as a real issue but worth a thought now rather than later (BTW nothing need be lost - pages can be "moved" to the new name). Let me know if I can help - regards -- Herby talk thyme 13:12, 18 January 2007 (UTC)

Convention
I had thought of making it a separate book, but I think it would be best to include it in the MMM umbrella. To that end, I was just trying to maintain the naming convention as it appeared to be used in MMM thus far. I have no vested interest in either naming convention as long as it's consistent. I am wading my way through these thick waters so I'll leave the decision to people who know more about how the mechanics of this site work. What do you think should be done?

 * Hi Chris - that is a pity - I was hoping you would have a clear view . I'll give it some thought and maybe ask around myself - as I say, nothing will be lost if a "move" is better in the end (even to  a separate book.  I'll get back to you if/when I have a bright idea - regards -- Herby  talk thyme 19:08, 18 January 2007 (UTC)

I'm starting another book about roulette, and according to the naming convention page (http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Wikibooks:Naming_policy) we should be using the slashes. I say we should migrate the whole MMM to the slash system if that's the convention.

 * -I'll take a look but I think almost all MMM is changed to the / system (I know I did some myself). What is the next book on?  BTW can you sign you posts (on talk pages, or where others do) use --~ (its on the toolbar of the editor if you have .js on).  Offline now for a few hours - Cheers -- Herby  talk thyme 19:35, 18 January 2007 (UTC)


 * -Server has been down I think so little time at pres. With some thought now - how about MMM-DV/ as a naming policy? It connects it with MMM while leaving some separation (as there should be looking at the pages concerned.  If you need a hand let me know (or want to talk it thro)  Cheers -- Herby  talk thyme 14:40, 19 January 2007 (UTC)


 * -I would appreciate the assistance. Film8ker 23:15, 25 January 2007 (UTC)

OK - looks like you did it and it looks fine. Regards -- Herby talk thyme 13:24, 26 January 2007 (UTC)

New Book Help
I'm creating a new book on Roulette. The guide is a little ambiguous as to how to add the bood to the bookshelf and how to use the new wikibook template. All I was able to figure out how to do was add a suggestion to the bookshelf. Have I done everything I need to?

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 Film8ker. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Film8ker~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 23:10, 17 March 2015 (UTC)
