What the-
How come my edits are suddenly being automatically checked, and I suddenly now have the power to roll back edits? When did I get those powers? I didn't have them before today's edits. --Whoop whoop pull up Bitching Betty 00:46, 12 January 2011 (UTC)


 * Never mind, I looked at my watchlist and I have apparently been promoted to a reviewer. Thanks, Adrignola! :-D --Whoop whoop pull up Bitching Betty 00:57, 12 January 2011 (UTC)

Chess book
Hi! I saw you editing some chess pages. I've been wanting to improve the Chess book, and especially revamp the endgame page, but it's hard to do it on one's own. Do you play chess? If so, maybe I could get your thoughts on my suggestion to split the endgame section into further subsections for each piece vs. piece study? I'm hesitant to do it without any outside opinion because it's a big change. Cheers, Tempodivalse 01:12, 12 January 2011 (UTC)


 * OK. --Whoop whoop pull up Bitching Betty 01:16, 12 January 2011 (UTC)

American/British English (in Trigonometry)
Hi Whoop-Whoop. I too think that the Trigonometry book should be in American English, not British English, so moving in that direction is good. However, comments like "Quit talking like a whole shitload of Brits!" are not. Please read Editorial_Control especially the last two sentences. I've added a section in the Talk:Trigonometry page so that we waste less time on agreeing on such things as British or American English.--JamesCrook (discuss • contribs) 10:41, 15 January 2011 (UTC)


 * Okay. Sorry about the edit summary, I just got angry about the other editor continually reverting it back to British English, and I apparently carelessly vented my feelings through the edit summary.  Sorry about that. --Whoop whoop pull up Bitching Betty 21:56, 15 January 2011 (UTC)

Whoop Whoop: I would like to encourage you to add your name to the Wikiproject Mathematics page.--JamesCrook (discuss • contribs) 22:33, 16 January 2011 (UTC)

Tags
Tags such as move should be placed on the content page for the page in question, as they then link to the corresponding discussion page for comments. And since they're on a content page and not a talk page, they should then not be substituted (commonly it's only templates on user talk pages that are substituted as well). – Adrignola discuss 17:10, 17 January 2011 (UTC)

Original research
A book on micronations; fine. But when you start making up your own, that goes into the realm of original research, which is out of scope for Wikibooks. Please ensure the book's scope sticks to verifiable information. – Adrignola discuss 04:14, 18 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Don't worry, it's been deleted (I blanked the page and then someone else speedied it.) --Whoop whoop pull up Bitching Betty 18:52, 12 March 2011 (UTC)

Yet another help request ;)
Hi! I've wrote Croatian Chess book, placed it in Public Domain, and uploaded it at WikiMedia Commons here: Croatian_chess_2nd_ed.pdf. Local admin, Adrignola, suggested that you might be willing to wikify it, and, if so, I'd really appreciate it. TIA!


 * I'd really like to, but, unfortunately, I'm not really multilingual (just English and some Spanish,) and I can't understand Croatian. Sorry! :-( Whoop whoop pull up Bitching Betty 18:04, 22 February 2011 (UTC)

Muggles' Guide
Hello, and thank you for the work you are doing on the Muggles' Guide.

I hope you'll forgive me for pointing this out, but there is a very important step that has to be done when you move a page, and that is to correct all the article links that point to it. There are about a dozen articles that point to "Darkness Powder", that now must be edited to point to "Peruvian Instant Darkness Powder". The most useful tool when doing this is in the toolbox on the lower left of the page, the "What Links Here" tool. If you go to Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Magic/Peruvian Instant Darkness Powder and click "What Links Here", you'll see the original page, now marked as a redirect page, and below that the dozen or so articles that point to the redirect.

Once you have made those changes, you can mark the original (now redirect) page for speedy deletion; the topic is obscure enough that I doubt there are inbound links pointing to it.

I will mention that when I originally created that page, I wondered whether I should use the full name or the abbreviated version, and ended up settling on the abbreviated version because my fingers were getting a bit weary... Chazz (talk) 17:17, 3 April 2011 (UTC)


 * OK, I fixed the links and nominated it for speedy deletion. YEE-HAW! --Whoop whoop pull up Bitching Betty 20:29, 3 April 2011 (UTC)


 * And that looks like that's done it. No apparent broken links, and our incredibly efficient admins have already removed the redirect page.


 * In case you're wondering about the collection thing, if you go to Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/All pages and select "Related changes" from the toolbox, you'll see every change that has been made to the Muggles' guide. The collection is the list of pages that make up the book... and there are a few other control pages included in that. You could print the entire book by printing the collection... but what I use it for is to track what changes have occurred in the Muggles' Guide, so I can cast an editorly eye over everything. Not that it's needed in most cases. Chazz (talk) 00:14, 4 April 2011 (UTC)

Missing attribution in principles of biochemnistry
HI Sorry for inconvenience. it will take more than 7 days to add attribution in 24 chapters. It will be good if you please let me know in which paragraphs attributions are missing. Thanks kaushlendratripathi (discuss • contribs)
 * Most of them, actually. Thanks for telling me, but if you realy have a gripe about the time limit, either work fast, get someone else to help you, or take it up with Recent Runes.  He's the one who suggested flagging the pages. --Whoop whoop pull up Bitching Betty 19:37, 18 April 2011 (UTC)
 * I have added all the attribution to first two chapter so please remove the banner from these chapters. Thanks.kaushlendratripathi (discuss • contribs)

 * OK, good. I've removed the banner from the first two chapters.  Please try to remove the redlinks though. --Whoop whoop pull up Bitching Betty 12:26, 19 April 2011 (UTC) Nope, readded to chapter two.  Wikipedia is not a source! --Whoop whoop pull up Bitching Betty 12:29, 19 April 2011 (UTC)
 * Can you let me know in chapter two which paragraphs have missing attribution thanks.kaushlendratripathi (discuss • contribs)
 * The ones that are missing attribution are the ones in which you cited Wikipedia as a source. --Whoop whoop pull up Bitching Betty 12:59, 19 April 2011 (UTC)
 * Sorry for disturbing you can you tell me by paragraph number or under which heading. Thanks because most of them related to wikipedia source only.kaushlendratripathi (discuss • contribs)

 * I have added all the attribution from two to five chapter so please remove the banner from these chapters. Thanks.kaushlendratripathi (discuss • contribs)
 * I have told you once and I will tell you again. WIKIPEDIA - IS - NOT - A - SOURCE!!!!!!!!!!! --Whoop whoop pull up Bitching Betty 12:37, 20 April 2011 (UTC)
 * Sorry for disturbing you either i am not able to understand what do you want? so please let me know by example thanks.I did it as suggest by qu

Hello, I have looked at what you are doing and I think you have misunderstood the requirement. It is not sufficient to just provide a link to the Wikipedia article you copied the material from. That is ref [en.wikipedia.org/wiki/carbohydrate] ref is not good enough. You need to provide a link to the version of the Wikipedia article you copied. So, in Wikipedia, you need to select "Permanent link" from the tool box to get a URL that is unique to the version you copied, then use that in the Wikibooks page like this example: ref [ http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Carbohydrate&oldid=424717553] ref. Hopefully this is clear, if not please ask. Thanks 15:53, 19 April 2011 (UTC)

So please let me know where i am wrong thanks kaushlendratripathi (discuss • contribs)


 * You also need to link to the source where the information came from. Which is NOT Wikipedia. --Whoop whoop pull up Bitching Betty 12:58, 20 April 2011 (UTC)
 * Ok i will do it but that is missing references not copy right violation. If i am wrong please let me know. thanks. Sorry for inconvenience.kaushlendratripathi (discuss • contribs)
 * Fine. But still add the references and remove the redlinks, please. --Whoop whoop pull up Bitching Betty 13:13, 20 April 2011 (UTC)
 * Thanks i have one quick question the words which are in red, are important terms so is it possible to make it in some other color.Because these terms are generally ask in various exams.
