User talk:Li~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 20:09, 6 December 2006 (UTC)

Page & subpage naming
Hi - you have got this message because it seems that you are working on a Wikibook and may have created a new pages or pages that do not conform to the policy guidelines here. There is nothing to worry about as pages can be "moved" quite easily so no content need be loss. However please consult the guidelines before creating any more pages. If you need any further help respond to the talk page of the user who placed this message (see signature at the end) or place a message on the study help desk. Thanks -- Herby talk thyme 20:09, 6 December 2006 (UTC)


 * PLEASE take a look at this - you are naming subpages as tho they were main pages. I'm offline shortly but ask around for help -- Herby  talk thyme 20:18, 6 December 2006 (UTC)


 * In Wikibooks all pages that you create should be part of a book. So if your book is about drumming then the page would be called "drumming".  Any sub sections about drumming (e.g. 'A 4-4 beat') should be located at drumming/a 4-4 beat.  You can move pages to the proper location using the "move" button at the top of the screen.  If in doubt please send a message to myself or Herby! Xania 20:21, 6 December 2006 (UTC)


 * Thanks! You've made us all very happy :) Xania 20:23, 6 December 2006 (UTC)

Drum stuff!
Hi - just noticed that we have some pages regarding drumming up for deletion - Tablature:Drums. There are sub pages too. These are quite old and use the wrong (old) naming system. I could "move" them to the "book" you are working on if that was of any interest to you? Regards -- Herby talk thyme 14:49, 7 December 2006 (UTC)

No thanks, but thanks for asking. The book's already got something similar. Li 21:40, 18 December 2006 (UTC)Li


 * No problem - thanks -- Herby talk thyme 18:17, 7 December 2006 (UTC)

This page
Learn to Play Drums/Lessons/Single strokes and double strokes you will see this is marked for deletion. I nearly did it myself but I assumed you would be adding to it? I'll change it to a 7 day one -- Herby talk thyme 20:33, 22 December 2006 (UTC)

Filled it in, sorry for leaving it so long and thanks for making it 7-day  Li 22:40, 22 December 2006 (UTC)


 * No problem I guessed you were working on it - regards -- Herby talk thyme 17:42, 23 December 2006 (UTC)

Image copyright problem with Image:A sizzler - drumming.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:A sizzler - drumming.jpg. However, the image may soon be deleted unless we can determine the copyright holder and copyright status. The Wikimedia Foundation is very careful about the images included in Wikibooks because of copyright law (see Wikibooks' Copyright policy).

The copyright holder is usually the creator, the creator's employer, or the last person who was transferred ownership rights. Copyright information on images is signified using copyright templates. The three basic license types on Wikibooks are open content, public domain, and fair use. Find the appropriate template in Image copyright tags and place it on the image page like this:.

Please signify the copyright information on any other images you have uploaded or will upload. Remember that images without this important information or giving false information can be deleted by an administrator. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me, or ask them at the Study help desk. Thank you. -- Herby talk thyme 13:34, 2 January 2007 (UTC)

I added a template, GFDL. Thanks for pointing this out. Li 17:02, 3 January 2007 (UTC)

My talk page & your user page
You can put anything you like on it (or anyone's talk page come to that)!!! I've put the query back but been a bit busy - get back to you as soon as I can - regards -- Herby talk thyme 16:50, 3 January 2007 (UTC)
 * That looks fine to me (license) - if you do need anything deleted you should find what you need here. Let me know if I can help - regards -- Herby  talk thyme 17:04, 3 January 2007 (UTC)

You can put what you like on your user page - it can be as much or as little as you like - it can be about you or anything else. You'd be surprised how many people may have looked at it (I have!). Use user talk pages to "talk" to anyone you like. Some people keep a conversation on one page and "watch" that one, others alternate between their own page and the other person - to me it does matter. If I can help, let me know - all the best -- Herby talk thyme 19:12, 3 January 2007 (UTC)

Hi
As I have been in touch with you about some bits I hope you won't mind me approaching you about something specific. While vandalism is not the issue here that it is on Wikipedia we do still have a level of vandalism that needs tackling often by Admins as there are fewer users here than Wikipedia. One of the tools that allows us to tackle vandals more easily is Checkuser. This means that we can see the IP address a registered user has vandalised from and see if this may have happened before (it often has). To get these rights required 25 affirmative votes which on a small wiki is not easy. A hard working Admin is looking for just two more votes to get this. If you would like to look at this then go here Requests_for_adminship and you are welcome to vote. I must stress that you are under no pressure at all to do so and if you decide not to that is fine. I do hope you do not mind me contacting you in this way - thanks and regards -- Herby talk thyme 18:07, 6 January 2007 (UTC)

Poss deletion
Hi - do you want Image:Avatar thing.JPG deleted? Regards -- Herby talk thyme 13:48, 3 February 2007 (UTC)

Yeah, thanks! Li 16:13, 5 February 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 Li. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Li~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 23:22, 17 March 2015 (UTC)

Renamed
 This account has been renamed as part of single-user login finalisation. If you own this account you can |log in using your previous username and password for more information. If you do not like this account's new name, you can choose your own using this form after logging in: . -- Keegan (WMF) (talk) 05:12, 19 April 2015 (UTC)
