Computer3 bot

Hello, I'm a sysop of English Wikibooks. Is it possible to install your Computer3 bot at Wikibooks and #wikibooks IRC channel? --Derbeth 19:21, 11 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Done. Bot is active in #wikibooks-en-vandalism --Cool Cat ^Talk 17:06, 12 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Where can I find instructions of using the bot? I see there are whitelisted users and watched pages, where and how are they set? --Derbeth 20:19, 13 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Just say "computer help" in channel

The bot at #wikibooks-en-vandalism seems not working - it does not show anything. F.e. bot at #wikipedia-en-vandalism displays a message when an user is blocked - this one not. --Derbeth 10:12, 15 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Ill investigate at once. --Cool Cat ^Talk 10:21, 15 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

OK after spending hours on this I located the problem. A typo was causing all the problem, should be resolved. --Cool Cat ^Talk 15:28, 15 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

copyright status of wikisource images

I am attempting to work out the status of some images (s:Special:Prefixindex/Image:Bookkeeping) you have transwiki'ed onto Wikisource, as I would like to move them to commons or remove them. I see that the images came from wikibooks [1], but I am unsure whether they are scanned or original, and thus whether to use {{PD-old-70}} or {{PD-user}}.

Hi there Derbeth. I just wanted to ask you if you've already been cleared for making bot edits on the Simple English Wiktionary. We have a stricter policy than most, so I just wanted to make sure that you are doing the right thing. Cheers, Razor flame 19:53, 31 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Moving Your Files to Wikimedia Commons

Hello Derbeth!

First, thank you for your contributions to Wikisource. Any contributions are always very much appreciated. While searching around, I noticed that you have some files that you uploaded to Wikisource that would probably serve the community better if it was on Wikimedia Commons, a media file repository. You can view your files to see which ones I'm referring to. See the Image Guidelines for more information.

Why should you do this?

As an example, let's pretend you extracted a hard-to-find image from a book written in 1870. If you upload it to Wikisource, only Wikisource users can use it. What if a user from Japan is writing an article about a similar topic? If your file is on Wikisource, it's unlikely he'll find it, and if he's lucky enough to find it, he still won't be able to use it easily. However, if you uploaded it to Commons, it's much more likely he'll find it and be able to use it. (Files hosted on Commons are accessible from any sister project) The same goes for any PDF or DJVU files you upload as well.

Note: To "move" a page from Wikisource to Commons is simple, but somewhat confusing if you don't know how to. First, upload the file to Commons with the same file name as you did here. Add the same information, making sure you put in the correct license. I suggest adding the {{Wikisource image}} template to its Commons page. Then edit the file's page at Wikisource and add the template {{Now Commons}}. Soon an administrator will complete the "move" by deleting the Wikisource copy (as it's no longer needed). You don't need to change any tags on Wikisource as they'll automatically point to the new file. Awesome!

If you have any questions or concerns, don't be afraid to ask.
