User talk:Poppy~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! Mattb112885 00:31, 26 February 2007 (UTC)

 * Of course! I was just a little confused there :P. Are these from German Wikibooks? -- SB_Johnny | talk 13:49, 28 February 2007 (UTC)


 * Cool, sounds good. If you don't mind, try to leave a link to the source page on the talk pages (copyright stuff) :). -- SB_Johnny | talk 14:16, 28 February 2007 (UTC)

Persian Questions/Corrections
Dear Sir (or Ma'am): Your Persian lessons are excellent. However, there were some questions I had, and also I think there are few formatting issues that may need to be corrected. These are all relating to Lesson One.

(1) Is "furniture" pronounced ASAS or ASAR--it looks like the final consonant is "se" but you have it written as "ASAR", with a "re." (2) Is CHERA ("why") written correctly? It looks like "che"-"wa" but it should be "che"-"re"? (3) There may be some spots where "jim" and "khe" are confused. (4) There are definitely several places where the whole letter is not fully visible, thus the reader cannot tell if it is "pe" or "be" (among others).

Again, your lessons are excellent. Keep up the good work. I plan to keep using them. Thanks --Dpr 14:38, 4 April 2007 (UTC)


 * Thanks for getting back to me so quickly. I appreciate your help. I'll try to contribute to the project where possible but I'm a complete beginner in Persian.


 * Regarding your question, I say introduce/use the Persian alphabet as soon as possible (i.e. right off the bat), under the theory that real-world use of Persian will require using the alphabet and it's better to master it as soon as possible. Anyone who wants to learn to speak it but not read it will have to be satisfied with a phrase book which can contain Romanized and original text versions of words/phrases. (You can move my comments to the talk page if you'd like).


 * Finally, if you have time for another question...I was trying to find out was whether there is a difference in pronunciation between the following groups of letters in Persian/Farsi:
 * se, sin, sad
 * ze, za, zad
 * te, ta
 * Does each group have the same pronunciation (i.e. /s/, /z/, /t/, respectively)? Thanks in advance! --Dpr 18:53, 5 April 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 Poppy. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Poppy~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)
