First Task, Headings and subheadings
[edit]Your first task is a simple one. However, I would like to see just how "wiki-literate" you are. What you need to do is put each uppercase letter as a heading, with each accented character as a subheading, and each lowercase letter as text within each heading/subheading. As an optional parameter, place an internal link to a page that starts with that letter. Any page will do.
Again, I know this is simple, but I need to know what you do and don't know.
Ok, not quite. When making headings use this format == Heading == and for subheadings use === subheading ===
Ok, again not quite, but this time I think you are simple misunderstanding the parameters of the task. This is what I wanted.
Thats a pass.
Second Task, Internal Links
[edit]You second task is to provide internal links to the articles I have given below. For the last article disguise it as something else using the "l" character. One of these will show up as a red link. Find out what is wrong with it and fix it. Optional, add links to each articles talk page.
Passed
Third task, Images
[edit]I want you to add four images, each with a caption, to this page. I want one plain image, one with a 3 pixel frame, one as a thumbnail, and one shrunk to 20 pixels. Use only free images, so we don't have admins and copyvio cops on our assess.
Passed
Policies
[edit]Look up the policies relevant to:
Provide both an internal link, and an external link to each page so I know you read, at least most of, it.(That sentence looks weird, but is grammatically correct...Odd.) Pass.
Application of Knowledge
[edit]At the article for George Bush you see an edit summary like this "Removed Slanderous Information-L.Bush" and the userpage shows that this person claims to be Laura Bush, George Bush's husband. The edits themselves took out the enitre section on "Bushisms" (funny words Bush uses, like nucular) and added two sections, one referenced to a book Laura wrote herself, and the other unreferenced. The unreferenced section details how Bush is a very intteligent man, and is a good husband and father. The language of the section suggests that the editor thinks Bush is a good person. When asked about this, User L.Bush replied "How dare you slander my husband! You computer geeks don't know anything about him!".
What would you do? What, if anything would you revert? Are there any reportable offenses?
Pass.
Referenceing
[edit]Provide inline citations for this statement, and correct any information that can't be properly sourced. Also provide a References section below the statement. It should be fairly easy to find relevant info on google.
"The cheetah can run at speeds up to 70mph, and cheetah eats quickly for if challenged it will most often lose. Cheetahs have unusually clean eating habits: they do not return to their kill nor do they eat carrion; they leave the skin, bones and entrails of their prey."
Impressive. The others simply corrected the mistakes, whereas you added more info. This is the kind of thing WP needs.

Vandalism and Welcoming
[edit]There are many tools wikipedians use to patrol vandalism, the most common of which is the Special:Newpages link. There are also some tools to be found that are much more powerful than the "Newpages". I found the one I currently use from User:Lupin. Your task is to find three pages relevant to vandalism, fighting vandalism, or the consequences of vandalism.
When welcoming a new user many templates can be used. The most common is {{welcome}}. You can also use mine at User:Drew R. Smith/Welcome. Your task is to find and welcome three new users, and provide links to prove it.
