User talk:TheProject~enwikibooks

I see you have been transwiki'ing material from Wikipedia. Please bear in mind that Wikibooks is for textbooks - so material transwiki'ed in should either be a textbook or be a page that can be added to a textbook (eg a page of the Cookbook. We are very happy to accept such material, but where pages do not meet this criterion, please do not add them to Wikibooks or they will be deleted, Jguk 11:35, 26 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Well, I'm sending them to the Transwiki namespace. If they aren't suitable for Wikibooks, then I suppose they should just be replaced with a tag, no? Anyways, I'm not quite sure what the problem seems to be. Everything I'm sending in is generally either a recipe, a how-to/in-depth guide, or a code sample. TheProject 21:35, 26 May 2006 (UTC)


 * Be a little more careful about transwikied pages than this seemingly callous attitude. As I warned on the movetowikibooks (on en.wikipedia) tag, if you do a transwiki to Wikibooks but it isn't appropriate here, you might as well have simply deleted it from Wikipedia.  Plus you get some admins mad at you for having to become the heavy and delete the content here.  Please make sure that the content at least seems to you like it would belong on Wikibooks.  Also.... please note in the edit history log where you are doing the transwiki from.  While assuming that it is from Wikipedia (en.wikipedia in particular) might be a fair assumption, it is not always correct and rather presumputuious.  Other wikis do transwiki content to Wikibooks, including the other Wikimedia sister projects.  --Rob Horning 20:47, 12 June 2006 (UTC)


 * In regards to the source project of the article, I'm already noting the source in the edit summary. I'm still a little lost as to whether or not how-to guides are accepted. TheProject 18:54, 14 June 2006 (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 TheProject. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name TheProject~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 23:47, 17 March 2015 (UTC)
