16:52:51, 13 September 2015 review of submission by Michael hobren[edit]


I HAVE A TWO-COLUMN GRAPHIC INSERT, AND TWO COLUMNS OF TEXT DATA BELOW THAT, THAT I WANT TO INSERT ON THE RIGHT SIDE OF MY WIKI PAGE WITHIN AN OUTLINED BOX, PER THE STANDARD WIKIPEDIA FORMATTING STYLE. HOWEVER, I DON'T KNOW HOW TO DO THIS. CAN YOU GIVE ME ANY POINTERS, HELP HERE AS TO HOW TO SET THIS UP? THANKS FOR ANY ADVICE YOU CAN OFFER. -- MICHAEL HOBREN Michael hobren (talk) 16:52, 13 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@Michael hobren: If you mean an infobox, I've added a bare-bones one to the draft. You can read about the many ways to use it at Template:Infobox musical artist. A couple other notes:
  1. When you used "my wiki page" to refer to Draft:White_Light_(band), did you mean the draft encyclopedia article you own, the one about you and your band, or merely the one you've been editing recently?
    1. No one owns any Wikipedia article. Any other editor can completely replace at any time everything you've written. If the community consensus is that the change is an improvement, there's nothing you can do about it.
    2. Wikipedia strongly discourages editors from writing about things to which they have a close connection. If you do so anyway, it's important for you to disclose what that connection is.
  2. Trying to communicate in bold all caps is generally counterproductive. Editors are likely to treat you as if you'd walked up to them and begun shouting at them through a megaphone.

Hi, I would like to link each line of my list of contents with each corresponding section in the page. How can I do this?

Thank you!!! Leonadance (talk) 21:12, 13 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Leonadance, I've fixed various formatting errors. A Table of Contents is automatically generated as soon as the page contains at least four correctly formatted section headings. Only the "References" and "External links" headings were properly formatted. Roger (Dodger67) (talk) 21:38, 13 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
