Not a game guide

Hi Yunzhong, thanks for helping to fill out wikipedia's StarCraft coverage. Just some advice: remember wikipedia is NOT a "how-to" guide for video games or anything else. Also you might want take a look at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Tacluchnatagamuntoron. Kappa 14:21, 6 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Wow did I do something wrong? Is what I have spent all my time on not wanted in Wikipedia? AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

Please tell me if there is any hope of saving my pages... I'm really nervous now...

User:Yunzhong Hou--High Templar--Template:StarCraft Game--High Archon (StarCraft)--StarCraft Units--StarCraft Structures--Gateway (StarCraft)--Shield Battery (StarCraft)--Forge (StarCraft)--Templar Archives (StarCraft)

Hello Kappa,

I recently received notice from you on not making StarCraft into a game guide. Does that mean I should quit my project and roam elsewhere on WP for something to do? So far the few people who looked at my article have said that it's good, and now I'm getting nervous. I have done way too much to get all of my articles, my template and even a buddy's StarCraft images deleted, and yet I still think that there is much more for me to do- too much for me to quit now. Am I going in the wrong direction? If I am, I am willing to modify the articles to reflect the wishes of the WP community.

I hope to get a reply soon...

--Yunzhong Hou 14:34, 6 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I can see you are making good articles, and I would hate to see them deleted. The fact that they are well-written makes them less likely to be nominated, although some of them do contain statements that look more like advice than explanations. Note that separate items often end up merged into lists (e.g. Minor Slytherins), it might be wise to do this pre-emptively. Also if you do want to make a game guide, you might want to look at wikicities or somewhere - wikibooks used to do games, but I heard that Jimbo doesn't approve. Kappa 14:58, 6 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hi! I'm on the SC "project", too. I think we should keep the game part relatively brief, but alive. --Chodorkovskiy 17:36, 6 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I don't want to depress you, but I just found Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/RuneScape skills which might be of interest. Kappa 01:59, 7 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Traswikify: WikiBooks StarCraft

As a result of the recent message, I decided to check out WikiBooks. There I realized that we could incorporate the basic material in the StarCraft Wikibook into our articles. Better yet, move most of the StarCraft articles on Wikipedia to Wikibooks, leaving only the StarCraft main page on Wikipedia and adding a big link to the articles on Wikibooks. That way all of the StarCraft pages will be unified, with a Table of Contents to connect all of the related artices. I am sure that it will make for easy editing. Got any ideas? --Yunzhong Hou 14:03, 8 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Wikibooks

Hello and welcome to Wikibooks! I hope you will enjoy work at Wikibooks.

Thanks for contributing to Starcraft wikibook, but one tip for you. We use special naming convention at Wikibooks - every page has book and chapter names in its name. You should remember about it when you make links. Do not link like [[Protoss]], rather use [[Starcraft:Protoss|]] (note pipe | character). --User:Derbeth ^talk 16:48, 8 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

RE:We Meet Again...

Hi! Actually, I'm not really into Wikibooks. You see, I left the StarCraft "project" on Wikipedia when I discovered it went directly against policy. After learning those articles survived the deletion debate, I was even considering coming back and deleting all the game hints myself. Maybe I will give you a hand cleaning up SC articles on Wikipedia, though.

I'm not that far into StarCraft: I'm a below-average Toss player with a record of 0/16 on PGTour. At least I know The Big Five...--Chodorkovskiy ^(talk) 05:44, 25 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Project Completed: "Medal of Honor"

Today I celebrate the completion of the first chapter of my novel (and currently a short story), 'Medal of Honor'. It's about manipulation of thoughts and emotions and can be reached at www.starcraft.org section of Fiction, subsection of Short Stories beginning June 8, 2006. Please read it and provide me with comments. Thank you for your time and effort. --Yunzhong Hou.

User:Yunzhong Hou

Hello, Yunzhong Hou. I'm Chinese too, so I guess we share the we both like StarCraft, although I stopped playing it like, uh, 6 months ago. I'm right now trying to infobox every StarCraft unit article and complete all of them.

However, I'm not sure if the story on your userpage is allowed by Wikipedia. I mean, I'm an avid reader AND a StarCraft advocate, but, we have to stick to the rules at Wikipedia. Let's discuss it.

Sorry for the move, but...

In Wikibooks, I gave you the message:

Hello, we have a naming convention here in Wikibooks. Basically, we do "Future/Prologue" and not "Future:Prologue". I have taken the liberty to correct your page, but please follow naming conventions in the future. Good luck with your project. --Dragontamer 04:24, 25 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Rar!

Dear Yunzhong Hou,

What's up? ;-) It's X9 from Starcraft.org...

Yeah, the StarCraft unit articles were all deleted in Summer 2006 (except for the heroes)...one word: AfDs. ;-)

Cheers,

Notification: changes to "Mark my edits as minor by default" preference

Hello there. This is an automated message to tell you about the gradual phasing out of the preference entitled "Mark all edits minor by default", which you currently have (or very recently had) enabled.

On 13 March 2011, this preference was hidden from the user preferences screen as part of efforts to prevent its accidental misuse (consensus discussion). This had the effect of locking users in to their existing preference, which, in your case, was true. To complete the process, your preference will automatically be changed to false in the next few days. This does not require any intervention on your part and you will still be able to manually mark your edits as being 'minor'. The only thing that's changed is that you will no longer have them marked as minor by default.

For established users such as yourself there is a workaround available involving custom JavaScript. If you are familiar with the contents of WP:MINOR, and believe that it is still beneficial to the encyclopedia to have all your edits marked as such by default, then this discussion will give you the details you need to continue with this functionality indefinitely. If you have any problems, feel free to drop me a note.

Thank you for your understanding and happy editing :) Editing on behalf of User:Jarry1250, LivingBot (talk) 22:17, 14 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

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 Yunzhong Hou. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Yunzhong Hou~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
