User talk:Jetstream~enwiki

Hmm, discussions. How can I attract people to talk with me about what I have to say? How about I start posting some of my knowledge, and then post a discussion topic about each one. Sounds good to me.

My first page, wiki:user or whatever it is, says: I am impressed with the diversity of the tools that everyone has at their disposal. Obviously, whoever was involved in the creation of this community, is familiar with the term Noob, or Noobie, and designed this community not with that person in mind at all. Why do I come to this conclusion? Because as someone who knows the psyche of a noob, I know that few noobs actually take time to learn even what the buttons do. You see, these buttons are here for poeple who will use them, not for people who will not use them.

So I say, to all of you who read whatever I edit or whatever I respond to, that I want to learn from you, I want to help you learn from me, and I want to discuss it in a manner that is polite and constructive............may we do this with regards to the people who set up this community. They obviously believe in the same principals of governance since they obviously know the definition of "trust system"

I will be posting shortly(timespan varies from topic to topic up to a year for first pages on some) topics relating to--:-- Canadian(as the population to gather public data from) demographics and statistics re: moral/poverty/activity relationships. I hope to come to a conclusion that I have hypothesized and then, with the help of you all, design a more acceptable way to include all walks of life in societies complex workings. --:--Psychological effect of environmental inflictions upon an individual and its various result returning pathways. --:--Easy to remember ways of remembering things you've learned.(a topic I update in my head on a regular basis, and have many thesis'/hypothesis upon which I will draw upon)

Thats it for now

I posted my first discussion on someone elses talk page tonight. Its getting late and I really don't have the time to look at this stuff thoroughly. TBH - I am a comfortable(very) computer user, but I have not paid any attention to highschool teachers who tried to teach me HTML or BASIC nearly 10 years ago, and as such, I claimed to be a noob when I posted on Alf's discussion page. Here's the excerpt:

I am a noob im many regards to the internet...I wish you congrats, gg, and so forth. I will now attempt my first timestamp and whatnot to finish this post, in an edit page that has a lot more characters than I am comfortable seeing. Alf, as a newly appointed admin, will you help me be not so noob. JetS 04:36, 10 February 2006 (UTC) --xJetStream-- fontcolourwhennotsohtmlnoob (User_talk:JetStream)

Okay now here's where I need help, why when I edited and saw all the discussion, was there a poopload of crazy html type typing? Obviously so we can put in nifty stuff right? So how much do I need to put in when I want to type a signature type ending to my post? I have dreams of designing an extensive website over the next few years... it seems wikipedia just might need an extensive How To: HTML FOR DUMMIES type tutorial, of course that is, if it doesn't already have one. Well, gg alf, I hope you find your way over to my neck of the woods here in Canada.

Welcome to Wikipedia!
Hello, welcome to Wikipedia!

I noticed nobody had said hi yet... Hi!

If you feel a change is needed, feel free to make it yourself! Wikipedia is a wiki, so anyone (yourself included) can edit any article by following the  link. Wikipedia convention is to be bold and not be afraid of making mistakes. If you're not sure how editing works, have a look at How to edit a page, or try out the Sandbox to test your editing skills.

You might like some of these links and tips:
 * some General guidance.
 * Tutorial and the Manual of Style.
 * Find out how to revert, move and merge pages.
 * Sign your posts on talk pages using four tildes (&#126;&#126;&#126;&#126;).
 * Add yourself to the New user log and a regional notice board
 * Ask questions at the Village pump or Help desk.
 * Use the Show preview button
 * Provide an Edit summary
 * Add the correct image copyright tag to any images you upload
 * Take a look at Consensus of standards
 * Create a User page

If, for some reason, you are unable to fix a problem yourself, feel free to ask someone else to do it. If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the Wikipedia Boot Camp, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type   on your user page, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Wikipedia has a vibrant community of contributors who have a wide range of skills and specialties, and many of them would be glad to help. As well as the wiki community pages there are IRC Channels, where you are more than welcome to ask for assistance.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask me on my talk page. Thanks and happy editing, -- Alf melmac 11:00, 10 February 2006 (UTC)

Signatures
Signatures, well a lot of people do a lot of different things, if you look at the very top of the page you'll see "my preferences", just to the right of "Jetstream" and "my talk", click "my preferences", check the raw signature box and enter something like
 * Jetstream Contrail
 * into the nickanme space, that will produce the following;
 * Jetstream Contrail

(the talk page link won't be live as we're already on the page, double square brackets link pages and if | is used will display whatever text is on the right, the sup is small+up, font speaks for itself, the commands with slashes are the cancels for the commands). Then when you sign with ~ it will produce that signature, hope this helps. --Alf melmac 11:00, 10 February 2006 (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 Jetstream. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Jetstream~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 00:51, 20 March 2015 (UTC)
