Tips on your user page
Before going any further I want to take this opportunity to earnestly encourage you to visit the Help-page for any information you want about Wikipedia policies, behavioral guidelines and principles. Moving on,
- Do you like your user-page, Brendon111?
If yes, then cool 
. Ignore the rest of the message.
However, if you don't like it and want to make it look even better, then follow these steps (and in that case, I'm happy to help):
- Open your your user page.
- Click "edit this page"/"edit" (above) to edit the page
- Add -
{{New user bar}}or{{New user bar|Image name of your choice}}above everything else in the content area of that page (whatever you write below plus the Image, if any, will be shown under the section "About me"). - click "show preview" (below)
- Now, if you like it, click "save page" (below).
- In case you cannot find the buttons
Here are some codes that might help, the codes work on internet explorer and other browsers like Mozilla firefox, google chrome too. If they don't work try clicking ↵ Enter after pressing the keys of code.
- ⇧ Shift+alt+e - "Edit the page"
- ⇧ Shift+alt+p - "Show Preview"
- ⇧ Shift+alt+s - "save page"
Note:
- Mac OS X-users must hold control (in stead of ⇧ Shift+alt), and press the desired access key (e, p or s), I guess.
- If these keys don't work by themselves press ↵ Enter after them without changing the order, to initiate the intended process.
I hope this helps. ~~
Usage
[edit]- Always remember to SUBSTITUTE!
{{subst:User:Brendon111/Usertip}} (will provide the user with the tip about userpage)
{{subst:User:Brendon111/Usertip|1=any message to be appended in the end}}
Additionally, one might specify the heading-level "3" (for H3 level heading) like this
{{subst:User:Brendon111/Usertip|1=any message to be appended in the end|HL=3}}
{{subst:User:Brendon111/Usertip|nub=y}} (for those users who have nothing but the {{New user bar}} in their user page.)
Don't include ~~~~ in the end. The template signs automatically.
