The mysterious Header toggle button

When proofreading in the Page: namespace and one has their toolbar turned on, one will see the button , and clicking it toggles the header/footer on and off. In this space we put the relevant components for top and bottoms of pages by use of the template {{RunningHeader}}, so for example {{RunningHeader|Stanhope|3|Stanhope}} produces

I personally have my header/footer set to open in the Page: namespace and I achieved this by activating that option in my Gadgets. — billinghurst sDrewth 15:34, 28 April 2010 (UTC)

You are doing beautifully, and have not mucked up anything. The system has a learning curve and is a little quirky (so are the people, come to that) and that is one feature curve that is regularly missed.

At WS we like to pride ourselves that we help new-comers to settle in and find something that tickles their fancy, so in that regard you are welcome. — billinghurst sDrewth 00:57, 29 April 2010 (UTC)

Images extracted from DJVUs

Hi! I noticed you uploaded some drop initials for Crainquebille, Putois, Riquet and other profitable tales, and that they were extracted from the DJVU. DJVU is a compressed format optimised for text, and as such, images are badly damaged by being made into a DJVU:

From DJVU	From the PDF that the DJVU came from

Notice the compression artifacts, blockiness and low quality of the former. If possible, in future, try to take the image from the most original source you have to hand, in this case, the PDF. Also, it is preferred to upload to Commons, so other projects can use that file. If you need any help, be sure to ask me! Inductiveload—talk/contribs 04:53, 8 May 2010 (UTC)

proofreading

Cheers for your proofreading, I don't know how I overlooked prune as prime :P Cygnis insignis (talk) 16:36, 20 May 2010 (UTC)

I must admit that "prune" sounded better... IncognitoErgoSum (talk) 17:54, 20 May 2010 (UTC)

Quick!

It is almost like you have been hovering waiting for the new month. If you are interested in nominating something for a future month, it would be great to have your input at Wikisource talk:Proofread of the Month. — billinghurst sDrewth 15:30, 31 May 2010 (UTC)

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

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
