A message from FRAASN

[edit]

hello my wiki guide!!

I found this product00 which does not have a didecated page on wikipedia >https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Draft:Washing_machine_stand&action=submit>

Is it a good idea to create a page for this?

FRAASN (talk) 07:05, 4 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I can't tell. You'll have to rewrite it and then push the "publish changes" button. I dream of horses (Hoofprints) (Neigh at me) 13:12, 4 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Question from Mausmug (18:03, 4 March 2024)

[edit]

I've edited grad school papers for friends, but am not sure how I can help here. --Mausmug (talk) 18:03, 4 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Mausmug It sounds like you'd be good at copyediting; you can find some 'newcomer tasks' (some are related to copyediting!) and a tutorial here. I dream of horses (Hoofprints) (Neigh at me) 06:26, 5 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Question from Rajjorandi (20:30, 7 March 2024)

[edit]

Hi how are you. I have started making edits but some pages are locked. How do I edit those? --Rajjorandi (talk) 20:30, 7 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Rajjorandi: I am not @I dream of horses, however those pages are protected to prevent vandalism. Users with a certain number of edits and account age can edit those. You can submit an edit request (here is the link). Once you open the edit request wizard, it's helpful to format it according to WP:EDITXY. Cheers! 🇺🇲JayCubby✡ plz edit my user pg! Talk 21:49, 7 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Rajjorandi to add to what @JayCubby said, it's likely you will be able to edit most of the locked pages in a few days, anyways. I dream of horses (Hoofprints) (Neigh at me) 21:55, 7 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Question from ACUA-H (06:19, 8 March 2024)

[edit]

Hi I was wondering how to create a page? --ACUA-H (talk) 06:19, 8 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@ACUA-H Since you had to ask, you should create a draft through articles for creation. If a draft is approved by a more experienced editor, it's a little more resistant to deletion since it's probably going to be sourced better.

Question from Kdslk (11:44, 8 March 2024)

[edit]

Hello. How can I type bold and italic letters ? --Kdslk (talk) 11:44, 8 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Kdslk You bold letters with three aprostrophes ( '''insert bold words here''') and italicize them with two aprostrophes (''insert words here''). The first time an article title is mentioned, it's bolded, and of course, titles are italicized. Other than that, we don't use bolding and italicization very often in articles. You can experiment with these at your "sandbox" before doing anything in an article if you want. I dream of horses (Hoofprints) (Neigh at me) 19:07, 8 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Question from Purple Magic Mama on Take Me Home (TV series) (15:34, 19 March 2024)

[edit]

Ok so um... How do I edit it?? Plz help. --Purple Magic Mama (talk) 15:34, 19 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Purple Magic Mama Underneath the article title, you should see a bar of links. Article, talk, then a large space, then to the right you'll see read, edit, etc. Hit the edit button, and you should be able to make changes.

Hello, I dream of horses! I am very glad that you have decided to be my mentor! I mostly won't do a lot on this, and I mostly created the account just for it! I am glad you have decided to be my mentor!

Question from ALPINE1975 (00:18, 28 March 2024)

[edit]

Hello. I do not know how to request someone to make a page, how should I go about that (Cleveland Central Middle School) --ALPINE1975 (talk) 00:19, 28 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@ALPINE1975 Middle schools have a hard time qualifying for articles; if you want to try to request an article, anyways, you can do so at requested articles. I dream of horses (Hoofprints) (Neigh at me) 00:40, 28 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Question from Gladys is meh (16:34, 28 March 2024)

[edit]

(Redacted) and love writing but not very good at it, how do I make my writing better. --Gladys is meh (talk) 16:34, 28 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Gladys is meh: Practice is the only way to get better. I dream of horses (Hoofprints) (Neigh at me) 21:21, 29 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Question from Dušan Relo (06:09, 30 March 2024)

[edit]

Hi , can I add important people to the list of important people of my city ? How can I create article ? --Dušan Relo (talk) 06:09, 30 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Dušan Relo If someone qualifies for an article, you can add them to the list after the article has been created. Also, if you have to ask, you should create an article through article for creation or requested articles if you create one at all.

A message from ALPINE1975

[edit]

Hey, I dream of horses. I am currently in the process of trying to write a new article (which I know is not recommended, but eh I'm probably going to be banned before I can make it but I'll try anyway), and I can not find out a way to make a custom Infobox! My current one is on my user page. Can you tell me what's breaking it? Thanks! — Preceding unsigned comment added by ALPINE1975 (talk • contribs) 19:33, 28 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@APLINE1975: You aren't going to get banned for trying to write an article, you'll probably just be quite unsuccessful at it. This is particularly true with your conflict of interest.
The infobox has me stumped, though. Good news, though; you don't need an infobox to write an article. Eventually, if one is needed, you could just add one. --I dream of horses (Hoofprints) (Neigh at me) 21:26, 29 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@ALPINE1975: Correct the ping. I dream of horses (Hoofprints) (Neigh at me) 21:31, 29 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you. And yes, I know the article will be bad. Alpinianman75 ALPINE1975 20:51, 30 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
