Welcome

[edit]

Hi, ClassicBaseball. This is NOT some automated message...it's from a real person. You can talk to me right now. Welcome to Wikipedia! I noticed you've just joined, and wanted to give you a few tips to get you started. If you have any questions, please talk to us. The tips below should help you to get started. Best of luck!  Chzz  ►  21:20, 23 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

ようこそ
  • You don't need to read anything - anybody can edit; just go to an article and edit it. Be Bold, but please don't put silly stuff in - it will be removed very quickly, and will annoy people.
  • Ask for help. Talk to us live, or edit this page, put {{helpme}} and describe what help you need. Someone will reply very quickly - usually within a few minutes.
  • Edit existing articles, before you make your own. Look at some subjects that you know about, and see if you can make them a bit better. For example, Wikipedia:Cleanup#2009.
  • When you're ready, read about Your first article. It should be about something well-known, and it will need references.

Good luck with editing; please drop me a line some time on my own talk page.

There's lots of information below. Once again, welcome to the fantastic world of Wikipedia!

Pics, tables, etc

[edit]

Hi again.

I did some work on the table, and then asked another user to give me a hand; they've smartened up one table and said they'll work on another later - so it might be all done by the time that you read this, on Chambersburg Maroons.

If you look at the code, hopefully you'll be able to follow it. The important bit bit to understand is, it has to be listed across-the-page (ROWS), and then down the page (COLUMNS). For example; 

{| class="wikitable" border="1"
|-
! '''Left heading'''
! '''Middle heading'''
! '''Right heading'''
|-
| Top left
| Top middle
| Top right
|-
| Second COLUMN left
| Second COLUMN middle
| Second COLUMN right
|-
| Bottom left
| Bottom middle
| Bottom right
|}

That gives this;

Left heading Middle heading Right heading
Top left Top middle Top right
Second COLUMN left Second COLUMN middle Second COLUMN right
Bottom left Bottom middle Bottom right

There are lots of nice things that you can do with tables - nice colours, parts that are hidden with a 'show' button, etc. See WP:TABLES.

Also, re. the hat image - although that was your own work, it was still a form of a logo, so...well, the copyright gets a bit dodgy. Therefore, I moved it from commons to Wikipedia. I also put a better name in. That's all done, all sorted out, no problems - just letting you know.

Hope this helps.  Chzz  ►  00:47, 28 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
