User talk:Plotor~enwikibooks

Good luck! -- LV (Dark Mark) 21:06, 14 December 2005 (UTC)


 * Not that it really matters, but why did you alter my comments? Why did you make it appear as if I said "Good luck!"? Thanks. -- LV (Dark Mark) 22:30, 14 December 2005 (UTC)


 * Aaaaah... after reading the comment in the talk page for game manuals, I can see how there was some confusion. In case you don't see the message there, I will repeat it here. The "Good luck!" was not sarcastic. It is included in the official welcome template. I just noticed your name a lot and thought I'd welcome you to the Wikibooks community. I do not make any judgements on what you edit. I am sorry if there was any confusion. Just keep upo the good work, my friend. Cheers. -- LV (Dark Mark) 22:38, 14 December 2005 (UTC)


 * LOL, I'm sorry LV, I honestly thought that there was the standard Wikibooks welcome, and one line later you added a personal "Good luck." I didn't expect a welcome template to actually be signed by another user.  And so I thought I was erasing a lot of default text and leaving only a personal message.  Thank you for the clarification.  Now that I understand it, I'll leave it there in the spirit of good will that it was intended. 01:54, 15 December 2005 (UTC)

Just saying I've added a responce to your comment on the Wikibooks_talk:Game_manual_guidelines page. So did Lord Voldemort. --Dragontamer 22:58, 14 December 2005 (UTC)


 * Got it, thank you very much for your support. I guess I'll keep plugging away at the project while the issue is resolved.  I am trying to keep it very legitimate, and making sure that every important link is connected, as well as adding the proper references back and forth between WP and WB.

VFD
In response to some of your comments on WB:VFD I have copied some text from Wikipedia:
 * Assume good faith. Wikibooks has worked remarkably well so far based on a policy of nearly complete freedom to edit. People come here to collaborate and write good articles.
 * Treat others as you would have them treat you.
 * Be polite, please!
 * People can't see you or know for sure your mood. Irony isn't always obvious, and blunt, raw text can easily appear rude. Be careful of the words you choose &mdash; what you intended might not be what others think
 * Argue facts, not personalities.
 * Be civil.
 * Although it's understandably difficult in a heated argument, if the other party is not as civil as you'd like them to be, make sure to be more civil than him or her, not less.
 * That way at least you're not spiralling down to open conflict and name-calling by your own accord, you're actively doing something about it: taking a hit and refraining from hitting back -- everybody appreciates that (or at least they should).
 * However, don't hesitate to let the other party know that you're not comfortable with their tone in a neutral way -- otherwise they might think you're too dense to understand their "subtlety", and you'll involuntarily encourage them (e.g. "I know you've been sarcastic above, but I don't think that's helping us resolve the issue. However, I don't think your argument stands because...").
 * Be prepared to apologize.
 * Forgive and forget.

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 Plotor. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Plotor~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 23:35, 17 March 2015 (UTC)
