Welcome aboard. I see that Yann has already set up your account. Thanks for the notice. Without such a notice I would not have known that the email account wasn't working, though I did wonder why there had been no messages at all recently. Eclecticology 16:03, 21 June 2014 (PDT)

Spam I can forward you the e-mail if you want to exchange e-mail addresses. My e-mail is publicly available. —Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 23:06, 21 June 2014 (PDT)
Sorry about not answering. I got distracted with a problem in my outgoing e-mail. Incoming has been fine. I keep getting a message about relaying not being allowed. I can now let you know that accounts@wikilivres.ca can now receive messages again. Eclecticology 01:05, 15 July 2014 (PDT)
About Latin: There may be none here now, but I think it can be encouraged without the need for extensive localization. Nobody has done anything with Georgian and some others since they were dumped here from Wikisource; these are more the kinds of languages that I would discourage in the absence of anyone to curate them.

IP blocks There is no such thing here as "IP block exempt". After the experience last year with spambots when more than 20,000 accounts were created, I'm very reluctant to open up editing by IPs. Now that the glitch is fixed in the e-mail account, there really aren't a lot of restrictions for new accounts. Eclecticology 22:44, 15 July 2014 (PDT)

Sylvia Plath and internationalisation

Hi, here -> Wikilivres:Localization is gatherd the collections of words you can use to inernationalize some of the phrases on this wiki. These words can be seen in others languages if you use {{int:word}}; eg. if you use {{int:Works in English}} I can see: "Prace w języku angielskim" (in Polish) or "Werke in englisch" (in German) and so on (it depens of the language the user choose in user preferences). Ohters words won't work; only produses inscription like this: <Others words>; so there is no sense to use them. Regards Electron ツ ➧☎ 17:25, 13 February 2015 (PST)

Internationalization It wasn't working for me: some words were in English, some in Polish, and some were in the form <WORD>. —Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 13:19, 22 February 2015 (PST)
It works only for special words that were defined previously and are gathered here - Wikilivres:Localization. I doesn't work for words that aren't defined yet. If you use a word that is not transleted yet you can see it between < >, as eg. <Novel>, because Novel is not translated yet; but e.g. word Novels is translated already and if you use {{int:Novels}}, you can see Novels without < > in English or Powieści in Polish or Романы in Russian and so on; the translation must be put into MediaWiki space; like here -> MediaWiki:Novels (for English), MediaWiki:Novels/pl (for Polish), MediaWiki:Novels/ru (for Russian) an so on. There is possibility to add new words to these set but they must be defined previously by admins (because only admins can edit MediaWiki space); for details, see -> here (section: {{int:message name}}). Regards Electron ツ ➧☎ 17:44, 22 February 2015 (PST)
En/Pl But why am I seeing Polish? In Special:Preferences, my language default is English. —Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 19:52, 22 February 2015 (PST)
OK. There was a mistake in MediaWiki:Poems, I fixed it. Now, it is the page in English, in Polish and in Russian - the only special words are translated. Please make a notice if you see others bugs. Electron ツ ➧☎ 03:47, 23 February 2015 (PST)

Welcome

A nice mop bucket for you on Wikilivres, with flowers

Congrats, and welcome  :) --Zephyrus 14:58, 24 February 2015 (PST)

Thanks I'm happy to help: Wikilivres performs a good function that supports WMF wikis. —Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 15:01, 24 February 2015 (PST)
Welcome on the board :) Electron ツ ➧☎ 16:02, 24 February 2015 (PST)
Thanks again I'm excited to link between free content communities. Please take a look at my post on the Community Portal and let me know what you think. —Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 16:03, 24 February 2015 (PST)

Sylvia Plath Poems

Does the collected edition tell when these poems were first published? For copyright purposes this is more important and useful than the date when they were composed. For posthumous works, copyright subsists for 50 years from the date of first publication. Eclecticology 14:54, 8 March 2015 (PDT)

Publication I'll check and make certain before I add more. Thanks for the heads-up. —Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 15:41, 8 March 2015 (PDT)
