- Starting your first book
- Help:Starting a new page or book is a good resource. If you need specific help with something, ask at WB:HELP.
- Reporting vandalism
- Report vandalism in progress on-wiki or in #wikibooks. Say
!admin@enbooksin IRC to get attention. You can fix most vandalism yourself because this is a wiki. Users who fight vandalism may ask for rollback access. - Why did you delete that?
- Check the deletion log for the reason (read any linked pages for details). Read the deletion policy. Check the VFD archives if applicable. If that doesn't answer your question, then ask. If you want it undeleted, ask at WB:VFU.
- What does
{{query}}mean? - This means that the page doesn't seem like the start of a textbook. Please leave a comment on the module's talk page if you are planning a textbook. If not, please replace
{{query}}with{{delete|reason for deletion}}. - What do
{{no license}}{{bad fairuse}}or{{no rationale}}mean? - All files uploaded to Wikibooks must have a license template and source; without that information, the upload will be deleted after 7 days. Please use
{{information}}to provide this required information. Fair use images must have a{{fair use rationale}}. To add templates, do not re-upload the image. You must edit the image description page directly, the same way you do for other pages - click the edit this page tab. Wikibooks:Media has all the information you should need. - Contacting me
- I've retired, so there's probably no need to do that.
About me
About me
- Yes, my real name is Mike
- Yes, I am a lifeguard
- I have a bot account using pywikipediabot.
- My original reason for coming to Wikibooks was to bring sanity to First Aid, which is now a featured book.
- I've made a semi-canonical PDF version, but I haven't used it in any courses yet. It will be updated as I figure out what works and what doesn't.
- I've put together Subject:First aid, which lists First Aid along with other stuff that deals with the subject
- I've also started Wikijunior:Water Safety, which is currently on the backburner. I do intend to finish it eventually. Same goes for Sensory Neuroscience: Hearing and speech and Knots.
- I've written an essay about integrity.
- I am currently an admin, CheckUser and 'crat here, as well as other roles on Meta (and a few other wikis). Most recently, I was elected as a steward. Since this is one of my home wikis, I am not permitted to take action here as a steward.
- My main tasks are currently keeping the cleanup backlogs just this side of the apocalypse.
{{Backlog}}shows the tasks where non-admins can help with these backlogs. - My main challenges are vandalism (mostly bad page creation); keeping up with new page patrol and verifying media uploads; and copyvios (especially in the cookbook).
- If you are a vandal, you'll get one warning. If you're particularly vulgar, you won't even get that.
- My main tasks are currently keeping the cleanup backlogs just this side of the apocalypse.
- I have rather strong views on rights. If you need them, are trusted, and active, you should have them. You only need the tools while you meet those requirements - if you're no longer trusted, active, or don't need them you shouldn't have them.
- This is the correct reaction to removal of admin tools for inactivity.
