User talk:Feenix~enwiki
Welcome
[edit]Hi Feenix~enwiki, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thanks for joining the coolest online encyclopedia I know of. I hope you stick around. You'll probably find it easiest to start with a tutorial of how the wikipedia works, and you can test stuff for yourself in the sandbox. Check out the simplified ruleset. When you're contributing, you'll probably find the manual of style to be helpful, and you'll also want to remember a couple important guidelines.
- Write from a neutral point of view
- Be bold in editing pages
- Use wikiquette.
Those are probably the most important ones, and you can take a look at some others at the policies and guidelines page. You might also be interested in how to write a great article and possibly adding some images to your articles.
Be sure to get involved in the community – you can contact me on my talk page if you have any questions, and you can check out the village pump, where lots of wikipedians hang out and discuss things. If you're looking for something to do, check out the community portal. And whenever you ask a question or post something on a talk page, be sure to sign your name by typing 4 tildes like ~~~~. Always sign the talk page, never the articles.
Again, welcome! It's great to have you. Happy editing!--May the Force be with you! Shreshth91($ |-| r 3 $ |-| t |-|) 16:32, 5 December 2005 (UTC)
- Noone can feel welcome enough, so welcome! To Wikipedia, of course. How's the weather over there in the UK? I hear it's quite chilly. Well, greetings from Canada, and if you need an extra place to shout at, feel free to drop me a line here. Cheers! --Master of Puppets {MASTER! MASTER!) 16:52, 5 December 2005 (UTC)
RE: User page
[edit]Start out by adding some info on yourself, what you like to do, where you edit on Wikipedia, what languages you speak, your goals etc. Check out Wikipedia:User page for what you can do with your user page and Wikipedia:Template messages for templates and how you can use on them. See Wikipedia:Template messages/All for a complete list of templates. Also, see Wikipedia:Image tutorial for how to add images. You can add templates by using {{name}} replacing name with the name of the template. Add images by using [[Image:name]]. Tell me if I helped out a little and if you need anything else.--May the Force be with you! Shreshth91($ |-| r 3 $ |-| t |-|) 17:17, 5 December 2005 (UTC)
Signature
[edit]I posted this on my talk page, but just so you have it here, too; it's a way to personalize your signature. Just go to My Preferences, turn on Raw Signatures, and paste in this text;
[[User:Example|Example]]<sup>[[User talk:Example|(*Yay*)]]</sup>
. Of course, feel free to change some things around. -- Master of Puppets (MASTER! MASTER!) 17:50, 5 December 2005 (UTC)
Userboxes, Babels and Bears, oh my!
[edit]I just thought I'd help out with your Userbox dilemma on your main page; here's a basic run through, just change the fields to your preference, remove boxes, etc. NOTE: You can also go here if you don't trust me. =D
+|-|3 8451< <0d3 (the basic code)
[edit]Code | Result | ||
---|---|---|---|
{{userbox|<color>|<color2>|[[<text/image>]]|<text>}} |
| ||
Now, if you want these to float into the right, for example, you have to set up the <div tags(set them up before the userboxes begin); | |||
<div style="float:right"> | |||
So, so far we have our userboxes sitting pretty in the right corner. Now, they'll often tend to mess up, so follow the following rules carefully;
| |||
Here's some code for an example userbox;
<div style="float:right"> {| | |||
|{{userbox|green|lightgreen|[[Blah]]|This user is very bored.}} |
| ||
|- |{{userbox|orange|yellow|[[Halb]]|.derob yrev si resu sihT}} |
| ||
|} <----When you're done, close up with these. | |||
</div> <---Finish it all off with a nice little close tag. |
And there you have your Userboxes =) (sorry about the code, couldn't get it to stay like I wanted it). I'm still snooping around to see how to get them into the Babel boxes. Anyway, there's your average right-floating box set. If you want to add more in, don't forget the |- and |} brackets, as they do matter.
Here's the above with Wikicode;
Enjoy ;)

RE:Sigs
[edit]If you wish to add a link to your talk page on your sig, go to the My Preferences tab on the top right of your screen. There you'll see a field named nickname. Type in whatever links you want to add, check off the Raw signatures box and save. You could add something like:
[[User:Feenix|Feenix]]-<sup>[[User talk:Feenix|my talk]]</sup>
Which will show up as
except that the talk link won't be bolded but will link to your talk page (links become bold if they are present on the page thay are linking to).
Hope I helped you out.--May the Force be with you! Shreshth91($ |-| r 3 $ |-| t |-|) 07:05, 6 December 2005 (UTC)
Sorry if I stepped on your shoes a bit with my edit; ITV just use Ultimate Force to fill their Saturday night schedule pretty much at random. Series 3 stopped about halfway through and wasn't continued until many months after it had begun; at this point I too thought it had been axed, so I'm tempted to think this is the same thing again. If ITV subsequently confirm they have cancelled it then we can edit the page accordingly, but until then them having no plans as of yet is the same as last series.

Your account will be renamed
[edit]Hello,
The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.
Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Feenix. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Feenix~enwiki that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name. If you think you might own all of the accounts with this name and this message is in error, please visit Special:MergeAccount to check and attach all of your accounts to prevent them from being renamed.
Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.
Sorry for the inconvenience.
Yours,
Keegan Peterzell

Renamed
[edit]This account has been renamed as part of single-user login finalisation. If you own this account you can log in using your previous username and password for more information. If you do not like this account's new name, you can choose your own using this form after logging in: Special:GlobalRenameRequest. -- Keegan (WMF) (talk)
