Question for administrator

[edit]

How to create a userbox? Can I submit it as a userbox draft?

--114BryanKurtLet's talk! 04:55, 18 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not an admin, but this might be of use to you. --Skamecrazy123 (talk) 05:27, 18 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I've made several userboxes, and what I do is to use an existing user box as a starting point. I copy the code of an existing userbox onto a page in my own user space that I've created. That way it is categorized correctly and formatted correctly. Then I play with it to make it look just like I want it to look. After that you can "transclude" the page to your user page something like this:
  • {{User:114BryanKurt/(user box name)}}
It will work just like a template works. joys! Painius  05:47, 18 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there. Welcome to Wikipedia! Building an encyclpedia is serious stuff - more serious than most students in Grade 6 probably understand. I think you have asked enough questions here for a while; anything else you need to know please click the links in the welcome message above and if you really can't find what you are looking for, then ask at the Teahouse.

Oh, and BTW: please don't ask again for special user rights. They are for people with a lot of experience. Happy editing! --Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 10:36, 22 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Putting maintenance tags & patrolling new pages

[edit]

Hi, first of all Thank for your contributions. But with only 13 edits in the main space, I would highly suggest that you first do some basic copy editing in your area of interest. Spend time on Wikipedia:Teahouse (a great place) and know the policies and guidelines better that how actually things work here. Feel free to ask for any help. I am one of the editors who helps the newbies. Thanks Peppy Paneer (talk) 09:34, 3 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

House of Šuḫi

[edit]

Hello 114BryanKurt, I recently read your message on my talk page. I agree that there are words in foreign languages in the article House of Šuḫi as it of course should be in an article about kings of an ancient culture. All except one are personal names, place names or names of deities which cannot be translated. The exception are the TAWANI apartments. The Luwian word TAWANI ist otherwise unknown and thus impossible to translate. For readers who have already a rough idea about Neo-Hittites the personal names, place names and god names should be understandable for this is an article of surely encylopedic interest but thought as deepening addition to articles of the same field of history.--Tarchunes (talk) 09:25, 6 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, Bryan

I am a published author with several books, I just wanted to open a page listing my blogs and my Books for people interested about me personally and to my work but if you think it should be deleted, then, let it be I don't really mind.

Asian 10,000 Challenge invite

[edit]

Hi. The Wikipedia:WikiProject Asia/The 10,000 Challenge has recently started, based on the UK/Ireland Wikipedia:The 10,000 Challenge and Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The 10,000 Challenge. The idea is not to record every minor edit, but to create a momentum to motivate editors to produce good content improvements and creations and inspire people to work on more countries than they might otherwise work on. There's also the possibility of establishing smaller country or regional challenges for places like South East Asia, Japan/China or India etc, much like Wikipedia:The 1000 Challenge (Nordic). For this to really work we need diversity and exciting content and editors from a broad range of countries regularly contributing. At some stage we hope to run some contests to benefit Asian content, a destubathon perhaps, aimed at reducing the stub count would be a good place to start, based on the current Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The Africa Destubathon which has produced near 200 articles in just three days. If you would like to see this happening for Asia, and see potential in this attracting more interest and editors for the country/countries you work on please sign up and being contributing to the challenge! This is a way we can target every country of Asia, and steadily vastly improve the encyclopedia. We need numbers to make this work so consider signing up as a participant! Thank you. --Ser Amantio di NicolaoChe dicono a Signa?Lo dicono a Signa. 00:56, 20 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

New deal for page patrollers

[edit]

Hi 114BryanKurt,

In order to better control the quality of new pages, keep out the spam, and welcome the genuine newbies, the current system we introduced in 2011 is being updated and improved. The documentation and tutorials have also been revised and given a facelift. Most importantly a new user group New Page Reviewer has been created.

Under the new rule, you may find that you are temporarily unable to mark new pages as reviewed. However, this is nothing to worry about - most current experienced patrollers are being accorded the the new right without the need to apply, and if you have significant previous experience of patrolling new pages, we strongly encourage you to apply for the new right as soon as possible - we need all the help we can get, and we are now providing a dynamic, supportive environment for your work.

Find out more about this exiting new user right now at New Page Reviewers and be sure to read the new tutorial before applying. MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 04:28, 13 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]


Information icon Hi. Could you reword this page to a decent page — Preceding unsigned comment added by David Dylan (talkcontribs) 04:26, 15 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. We're into the last five days of the Women in Red World Contest. There's a new bonus prize of $200 worth of books of your choice to win for creating the most new women biographies between 0:00 on the 26th and 23:59 on 30th November. If you've been contributing to the contest, thank you for your support, we've produced over 2000 articles. If you haven't contributed yet, we would appreciate you taking the time to add entries to our articles achievements list by the end of the month. Thank you, and if participating, good luck with the finale!

2019 US Banknote Contest

[edit]
US Banknote Contest
November-December 2019

There are an estimated 30,000 different varieties of United States banknotes, yet only a fraction of these are represented on Wikimedia Commons in the form of 2D scans. Additionally, Colonial America, the Confederate States, the Republic of Texas, multiple states and territories, communities, and private companies have issued banknotes that are in the public domain today but are absent from Commons.

In the months of November and December, WikiProject Numismatics will be running a cross-wiki upload-a-thon, the 2019 US Banknote Contest. The goal of the contest is to increase the number of US banknote images available to content creators on all Wikimedia projects. Participants will claim points for uploading and importing 2D scans of US banknotes, and at the end of the contest all will receive awards. Whether you want to claim the Gold Wiki or you just want to have fun, all are invited to participate.


If you do not want to receive invitations to future US Banknote Contests, follow the instructions here
