Wikipedia Welcome
[edit]Welcome to Wikipedia, 3 of 5 Tertiary Adjunt of Unimatrix 01! (And spelling or not, I love the name, lol). I'd like to take the opportunity to point you to some helpful areas that will assist you with getting around, and learning the ropes here. First, of course, are the five pillars of Wikipedia. Another helpful area is the image help page, and the Wikipedia manual of style. I have fixed your image upload to reflect the proper licensing information, images taken from NASA's website are in the public domain, and have special licensing tags. Also, you may find the following policies and guidelines helpful: Manual of style - Images, Cite your sources, Layout guide, First article, Article development and How to edit. If you need any assistance, please don't hesitate to contact me, and if I can't help I can put you in touch with someone who can. Happy editing! Ariel♥Gold 00:08, 1 October 2007 (UTC)
Images
[edit]Hi again Tertiary, I'm hoping you had a chance to review some of this material, but I'd like to request that you not force image sizing on images unless they require it, (i.e. panoramic views). Many users have lower resolutions, smaller monitors, or use large fonts, so forcing image sizing creates problems with the page's layout. Users can specify their image sizes in "my preferences" at the top, and also click on the image to see the full sized image. Also, the parameter of "up" in an image, does nothing, so I'm a bit unsure what you'd like to do with the image, but the manual of style can explain how images in articles should be placed, and formatted. Cheers! Ariel♥Gold 00:49, 1 October 2007 (UTC)
Hello again
[edit]Hi again! I really hope you do not take the suggestions I make negatively, as they are not intended that way, but I'd again like to encourage you to review some of the guidelines and policies for Wikipedia. One page in particular that I think would help is the preview information page, as "Preview" allows you to see what changes look like, without actually saving it, thus letting you fix any mistakes without having to save the page each time. Also, I'd really like to stress the use of images should be to illustrate specific items relating to the article. The section for STS-120 on Shuttle Processing is a very small section in the overall context of the article, and once the mission is complete, will be historically not all that significant. Major processing milestones are the stacking, and rollout. Therefore, to have four images in that section is a bit of overkill, (see Image use policy) and is unnecessarily loading the page with images. Also, images should not be left-aligned when placed under a header, as per the manual of style as it causes text to be displayed improperly. Without your feedback here, I am not sure you're reading these messages, so if you could give some feedback that would be very helpful! Thanks again, Ariel♥Gold 23:29, 1 October 2007 (UTC)
