Notice
Hello there, when asking a question on other user's talk page, please do not put the {{help me}}
template, as it adds the user in the [[Category:Wikipedians looking for help]] and users who monitor this category are alerted. Just asking the question to the editor as normal text by adding a new section (clicking on the '+' or 'Add new section' button next to 'Edit' on top of the page) will suffice. The {{help me}}
template can be used on this page to alert other users you need help. Anyways, thank you for your contributions and welcome to Wikipedia! :) [CharlieEchoTango] 04:50, 11 January 2011 (UTC)

I don't know how to reply to you. YOur talk page says to leave a msg here. HOW do you know I sent it? I'd like help with my edits of GCT page. See Discussions tab on GC Terminal. Thanks, Ron RonRice (talk) 18:48, 11 January 2011 (UTC)
- Hi, I know you replied because your talk page is on my watchlist : WP:Watchlist (your watchlist is here : Special:Watchlist). I do not know what GCT page is, but you could ask your question (with more precisions) on WP:Help desk. Hope this helped! - [CharlieEchoTango] 20:17, 11 January 2011 (UTC)

Hi RonRice. Thanks for your mesg on my talk page. If you need help on the parameters for the template called template:Infobox artist, click on the link. It will give you the help page. For using dates in the template. Check this out Template:Birth date and age. It will guide you on how to apply this to the article.
I think you have indeed removed the tags {{nofootnotes}}
from the top of the page. So it won't appear anymore. Thanks for adding more references to make the article more encyclopedic. Hope this helps. --Visik (talk) 05:41, 25 January 2011 (UTC)
Dear Visik, and Hello, Redrose64!
Thanks for your help- I appreciate your adding categories, too. I added similar ones to all the MM&W pages I follow now. Thankfully, one of you fixed this InfoBOX , so I can use it easily for others now.
{{Infobox artist | birthdate = 1893 | birthplace = U.S. | deathdate = 1961 (aged 67–68)
Being a CPA, I love organized table and "Spreadsheets", so
I am wondering how to do this neat little InfoBOX for 3 people on the McKim, Mead and White page? or how to do a 3 column table?
Finally, Why doesn't Wiki make [Templates] to ease adding of people like architects I am adding? It would seem to make a lot of sense to make novices feel more comfortable and make it easier to get others to contribute.
I am looking for help! Ask your question below. You can also check Help:Contents and the FAQ, or ask at the Help desk or the Teahouse. Users who monitor the category Wikipedians looking for help and those in Wikipedia's Live Help have been alerted and will assist you shortly. You can also join the chat room to receive live Wikipedia-related help there. You'll be receiving help soon, so don't worry. Note to helpers: Once you have offered help, please nullify the template using {{Tl}} or similar, replace with {{Help me-helped}}, or where {{Help me|question}} was used, use {{Tlp}}/{{Tnull}} |

Who sees this HELP REQUEST when I place this note here? Only others who have added me as a WATCH list?
