Do you have a gadget for LINT errors?
Wikiversity has Wikiversity:MediaWiki:Gadget-LintHint to help me avoid LINT errors. I noticed your Special:LintErrors page, but can't seem to find anything I can use on Wikibooks. Do you have anything? --Guy vandegrift (discuss • contribs) 16:24, 8 November 2021 (UTC)
 * I think I answered my own question: On the left sidebar I found the Page information link that lead to https://en.wikibooks.org/w/index.php?title=Probability/Combinatorics&action=info. I think I can handle the reset from there. ✅--Guy vandegrift (discuss • contribs) 04:36, 9 November 2021 (UTC)

Wu Shuang Pu book for free
I would like to put the Chinese book "Wu Shuang Pu" on Wikibooks, this book is readable for free and downloadable for free on the digital library in Munich. Wu Shuang Pu has a page on Wikipedia. I think it is worth to do put this book on Wikibook, but I do not know how to make that page here. So I like to have some help. A link to the free downloadside you can find on the Dutch Wu Shuang Pu page of Wikipedia Arno Jacobs (discuss • contribs) 18:00, 17 November 2021 (UTC)
 * This project does not accept source texts - existing books. You would need to upload it to Wikisource. QuiteUnusual (discuss • contribs) 08:28, 18 November 2021 (UTC)
 * I told you not to create the book here - seems you ignored me and did it anyway. I've deleted it. Please don't waste your time. QuiteUnusual (discuss • contribs) 08:27, 19 November 2021 (UTC)

Now unwanted boilerplate text
G'day Wikibooks Admins. I previously added the following boilerplate text to many of my sections: This to make it easy for me to cut and paste "'''" into each section. A few months ago, one of the admins deleted thousands of these boilerplates for me and more importantly amended the footnote at the end of the editing page to include my much used phrase. However, one page which was not cleaned up is: History_of_wireless_telegraphy_and_broadcasting_in_Australia/Editing/Notes This is the page that I cut and paste when creating a new biography, so each time I do so I add hundreds of these now un-needed comments. Would SKAS (some kind administrative soul) please run the bot to delete this unwanted boilerplate? If my newly created biographies could be cleaned up also, that would be much appreciated.
