Template:Majestic Pyre

Welcome!

Some cookies to welcome you!

Welcome to Wikipedia, Majestic Pyre! Thank you for your contributions. I am 4twenty42o and have been editing Wikipedia for quite some time, so if you have any questions feel free to leave me a message on my talk page. You can also check out Wikipedia:Questions or type {{helpme}} at the bottom of this page. Here are some pages that you might find helpful:

Also, when you post on talk pages you should sign your name using four tildes (~~~~); that will automatically produce your username and the date. I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian!

I stopped in and had a look at what was done. I apparently rolled your entire edit, when I intended to revert the link to facebook. You are most certainly not stupid. You are a very polite and tactful editor who has my apologies. Cheers.. - 4twenty42o (talk) 21:39, 20 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

My best advice is to adhere to if not the letter, then the spirit of WP:NOTABLE, WP:BLP and thenWP:COI. What you have so far is written in properly formatted sentences. However it is lacking reliable WP:SOURCES and that may go back to notability.. - 4twenty42o (talk) 23:16, 20 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks mate, those were the pages I needed. :)Majestic Pyre (talk) 23:31, 20 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
No worries my friend... If you have any other questions, you know where to find me. - 4twenty42o (talk) 05:16, 21 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]


A Note to any editor who answers my plea

Hey, I am a new editor working on some content that I would like to turn into an article someday. I can't figure out why my citation links aren't working though on my subpage. Help!

External links, i.e. links to webpages outside Wikipedia, should not contain a "|" to separate the link from the link text. Instead, since links cannot contain spaces, a space should be used. For example, [http://www.google.com Google] instead of [http://www.google.com|Google]. You might also want to use citation templates for your links, as outlined at Wikipedia:Citation templates.

Thanks! Majestic Pyre (talk) 22:26, 28 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Apologies Maj, I just saw the message you left on my talk page. I am glad you got your issue resolved so quickly!! - 4twenty42o (talk) 23:40, 28 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

A barnstar for you!

The Copyeditor's Barnstar
for creating Adopt-a-Typo. It's a great way to increase the quality of the Wiki. It helps spread out tedious tasks. pluma (talk) 21:01, 20 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Font

I was wondering how you change the font of text using wiki-markups. I have been wanting to change my talk link to the ó character in Webdings, which is a picture of a bird. All I have now is "twitter twitter cheep" Cheers! pluma twitter twitter cheep 01:48, 21 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I have found that all my design needs I go here. For fonts, here Majestic PyreMy Speech Bubble 03:48, 21 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Wow! Cheers! I was wondering how you had gotten so good at design after being on for only a couple months! pluma (twitter twitter cheep) 04:16, 21 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Because I learn by copying and pasting other people's use of a Wiki markup and changing the information I need to change. My method took a long time.pluma Ø 15:48, 21 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

GOCE drive newsletter

Invitation from the Guild of Copy Editors

The Guild of Copy Editors invites you to participate in their September 2011 Backlog elimination drive, a month-long effort to reduce the size of the copy editing backlog. The drive will begin on September 1 at 00:00 (UTC) and will end on September 30 at 23:59 (UTC). We will be tracking the number of 2010 articles in the backlog, as we want to copy edit as many of those as possible. Please consider copy editing an article that was tagged in 2010. Barnstars will be given to anyone who edits more than 4,000 words, with special awards for the top 5 in the categories "Number of articles", "Number of words", and "Number of articles of over 5,000 words". See you at the drive! – Your drive coordinators: Diannaa, Chaosdruid, The Utahraptor, Slon02, and SMasters.

Re: Adopt-a-typo userboxes

You're right, since Wikipedia:Adopt-a-typo is a separate project, a link probably would be more appropriate, so I've changed it thus. And don't worry, your tone didn't seem too sharp to me. :) Sophus Bie (talk) 06:12, 23 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
