Page Naming[edit source]

Please can you try and follow the page naming standards here and not create standalone pages - it means someone else has to sort the mess out later. You should be creating pages like this [[Physics Course/Sound]] not like [[Sound]]. Thanks. Unusual? Quite TalkQu 22:23, 20 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I want to reiterate this. You recently created Mass and Volume. Please be careful as this creates overhead for otherwise busy folk. --Swift (talk) 17:40, 17 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Copyrights[edit source]

Thank you for your interest in Wikibooks. Note, however, that not all content on the Internet can be uploaded to Wikibooks without fulfilling licensing requirements. Some content cannot be uploaded at all.

Physics Course/Ultra Violet Waves seems to be a copy of portions of w:Electromagnetic spectrum. The same applies to several other of your contributions. Wikipedia employs the same license as Wikibooks, but since the article histories have to be preserved in some way, content cannot be copied from one to the other. Luckily, one can import the full edit histories from one to the other, thus fulfilling the licensing requirements.

Should you wish to import Wikipedia content to Wikibooks, please make a request at WB:RFI and it will be dealt with shortly. Happy editing. --Swift (talk) 02:33, 10 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

This message box is using an invalid "type=warning" parameter and needs fixing.

October 2010[edit source]

We welcome and appreciate your contributions, including your edits to Physics Handbook, but some of your recent actions differ from the way things are normally done at Wikibooks. Using Wikibooks can be helpful in learning more about conventions. A tag has been placed on a page you created requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikibooks, because it appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion process. If you can indicate how it is different from the previously posted material, put a note on the page's discussion page saying why this page should stay. Administrators will look at your reasoning before deciding what to do with the page. If you believe the original discussion was unjustified, please contact the administrator who deleted the page or use request undeletion instead of continuing to recreate the page. Thank you. – Adrignola talk 23:44, 4 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

See Wikibooks:Requests for deletion/Physics Handbook. – Adrignola talk 23:46, 4 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

We welcome and appreciate your contributions, but your recent edits to Practical Electronics/Simplest Circuits had to be undone. Please see What is Wikibooks? to learn more about what contributions are beneficial to Wikibooks. It might not have been your intention, but your recent edit removed content from Wikibooks. When removing text, please specify a reason in the edit summary and discuss edits that are likely to be controversial on the page's talk page. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the text has been restored, as you can see from the page history. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this project, and if you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you. – Adrignola talk 21:55, 10 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
