User talk:Dz0~enwiki

Here are some tips to help you get started:

Read the Tutorial, and feel free to experiment in the Sandbox.
Eventually, you might want to read the Manual of Style and Policies and Guidelines.
If you need help, post a question at the Help Desk or ask me on my talk page.
To sign your name on a talk page, please finish your comments with ~~~~ (four tildes). The wiki will insert a link to your userpage and the timestamp.
Not every subject needs its own page. Sometimes it is wiser to deal with certain subjects together on one page. See Wikipedia:Merge and Wikipedia:Redirect for some background. You may want to review Avoiding common mistakes to get started quickly.
Explore, be bold in editing pages, and, most importantly, have fun!

Good luck! JFW | T@lk 22:52, 15 Jan 2005 (UTC)

Happiness

I was the one who removed your links in happiness, and I've done this again. External links are added to Wikipedia by the truckload, and these may be nice but not selective enough. I wonder why you've singled out "Formula of Happiness" as a book, because there are hundreds of self-help books with this theme available. JFW | T@lk 22:52, 15 Jan 2005 (UTC)

re: Happiness

hi, I think "Formula of Happiness" isn't just another primitive self-help book. It is written by a scientist (biophysic) and an editor of "Spiegel" and "Geo" (in 1996-2000). The book is based on many contemporary experiments about human nature and they are presented in easy to understand publicistic fashion (not a too complicated language, I mean - the same what I like about Wikipedia;). I myself am an analytic person and I found lots of rational and argumented things there.

Book doesn't state, "do thees 10 things and You'll definitely become happy!", instead it sais - "probably there are 6'000'000'000 ways to become happy" ;)

Please, take a look at http://www.stefanklein.info/en/texte_autor/intro.html 6-th paragraph to become sure of the intention of the book.

The author's credentials mean little. If you had posted a link to a similar book by René Diekstra (a Dutch professor of psychology and author of many similar books) I would also have removed it. Unless the book advances a major new theory about happiness that has found wide public acclaim or scientific backing, it does not have what it takes to become part of the Wikipedia page.

You seem to confuse "interesting" with "encyclopedic". This is an encyclopedia, and although it is written by amateurs we maintain certain standards; one of them is that external links do more than just link at something that someone might find interesting. We've got Google for that. Wikipedia should ideally only link to Dr Klein's book if it would have been quoted in a "real" encyclopedia like the Brittannica or the Brockhaus.

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 Dz0. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Dz0~enwiki 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. If you think you might own all of the accounts with this name and this message is in error, please visit Special:MergeAccount to check and attach all of your accounts to prevent them from being renamed.

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
