Welcome![edit]
- Hi, Robert Rossel, Welcome to Wikipedia!
You can help improve the articles listed below! This list updates frequently, so check back here for more tasks to try. (See Wikipedia:Maintenance or the Task Center for further information.)
Help counter systemic bias by creating new articles on important women.
Help improve popular pages, especially those of low quality.
I hope you like this place--I sure do--and want to stay. If you need help on how to title new articles check out Wikipedia:Naming conventions, and for help on formatting the pages visit the manual of style. If you need help look at Wikipedia:Help and The FAQ , plus if you can't find your answer there, check The Village pump (for Wikipedia related questions) or The Reference Desk (for general questions)! There's still more help at the Tutorial and Policy Library. Plus, don't forget to visit the Community Portal. And if you have any more questions after that, feel free to post them on My User talk Page.
Additional Tips:
Here's some extra tips to help you get around in the 'pedia!
- If you made any edits before you got an account, you might be interested in assigning those to your username.
- If you want to play around with your new Wiki skills the Sandbox is for you.
- You can sign your name using three tildes, like ~~~. If you use four, you can add a datestamp too.
- You may want to add yourself to the New User Log
- If you ever think a page or image should be deleted, please list it at the votes for deletion page. There is also a votes for undeletion page if you want to retrieve something that you think should not have been deleted.
Happy Wiki-ing. -- John Fader 18:43, 3 Mar 2005 (UTC)
Hello! To answer your points:
- The name change isn't up for debate; Wikipedia style has the first word of a title capitalised, the rest uncapitalised (unless they're part of a proper name). Don't worry, though; I've done it, and changed the relevant internal links.
- I'm still learning how to do things (and I've made some mistakes, large and small, along the way). I find, though, that the best way to learn is to do, together with looking to see how other people do. The occasional hint or helping hand is OK, but in the long run it's better to work at it yourself, I think. (That's why it's generally better to start by making small edits on a few articles before leaping in to a major editing job.)
It's fun either way, though. Mel Etitis (Μελ Ετητης) 21:55, 4 Mar 2005 (UTC)
- Not at all. Don't revert the article — though you might have a look back at what it looked like before, and see how you changed the presentation (I haven't looked, so I don't know what you'll find). You'll find the name of the User who added the clean-up tag in the History too. Mel Etitis (Μελ Ετητης) 23:31, 4 Mar 2005 (UTC)
- I'd be very cautious about getting a lot of non-Wikipedians (especially when they all share the same point of view on an issue) to leap in to editing an article — it's almost bound to end in tears.
- Don't worry about licensing and copyright (which isn't for individual articles; it's for users. By all measn look it up in the Help files, and add a license message to your own page by following the instructions).
- 'Wickify' just means editing an article so that it meets Wikipedia style guidelines, as explained in the files twoards which I pointed you on the Village Pump. I've already done most of it; you need to concentrate on content, now.
- I've removed the clean-up tag. Mel Etitis (Μελ Ετητης) 19:50, 5 Mar 2005 (UTC)
Thanks for your message. I'll have a look in on the article occasionally to see how it's going, and offer any advice I can. two practical points about leaving comments: first, you don't need to type your name and ~~~~; secondly, don't start a line with spaces — it makes the following text appear without formatting (so no line breaks), as follows:
Accordingly, self-relations although it draws upon many schools of therapy in some areas, works primarily with the flow of life, 'soul', and love, and draws upon other traditions of guidance and awakening throughout the world, and the ways these powerful human experiences can be used to guide someone's self-awakening, which can often be painful and confused.
Good luck! Mel Etitis (Μελ Ετητης) 14:17, 6 Mar 2005 (UTC)
