But yes please come check out the thread he linked. Erik gave some more detail on the columns parameters that I think you'll find very helpful if my guesses about what you're trying to do with the column edits are correct.

:Yes, [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Cry_Freedom&type=revision&diff=777031914&oldid=777031661 here] is an example of a change. (Note that my edit requires including two dividers before writing 30em.) On my screen, I see three columns with either 3 columns or 30em. However, if I shrink it (in a rough replication of a mobile view), this is how it looks: [http://imgur.com/a/Ug11v screenshot]. The left is 3 columns, the right is 30em. So you can see that when the screen gets narrower, the columns will change from 3 to 1 automatically.

Welcome!

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions so far. I hope you like the place and decide to stay.

Here are some links to pages you may find useful:

You don't have to log in to read or edit articles on Wikipedia, but if you wish to acquire additional privileges, you can simply create a named account. It's free, requires no personal information, and lets you:

If you edit without using a named account, your IP address (81.131.158.34) is used to identify you instead.

I hope that you, as a new Wikipedian, decide to continue contributing to our project: an encyclopedia of human knowledge that anyone can edit. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, or you can click here to ask for help on your talk page, and a volunteer should respond shortly. We also have an intuitive guide on editing if you're interested. By the way, please make sure to sign and date your talk page comments with four tildes (~~~~).

Happy editing! paul2520 19:02, 6 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Information icon Hello. This is a message to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions did not appear constructive and has been reverted. Please take some time to familiarise yourself with our policies and guidelines. You can find information about these at our welcome page which also provides further information about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. If you only meant to make test edits, please use the sandbox for that. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you may leave a message on my talk page. Specifically, you are putting extremely short cast lists on film articles into 3 or more columns, rendering the material harder to read on both desktop and mobile versions of the site. Two columns is usually sufficient. A list of 10 people certainly does not warrant 5 columns. Millahnna (talk) 20:12, 24 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

If this is a shared IP address, and you did not make the edits, consider creating an account for yourself or logging in with an existing account so you can avoid further irrelevant notices.

Yes, here is an example of a change. (Note that my edit requires including two dividers before writing 30em.) On my screen, I see three columns with either 3 columns or 30em. However, if I shrink it (in a rough replication of a mobile view), this is how it looks: screenshot. The left is 3 columns, the right is 30em.
