Your userbox

[edit]

It's looking good! Now make it better. IMHO, do this...

1) The "Hide" works fine, but the horizontal spacing on the "Unhide" needs to be tweaked.

2) Find a way to eliminate the blank space above and below the education boxes.

3) The Pittsburgh box is neither Education nor Programming. Make a place and a heading for it, and for others that you might want to add in the future.

I don't have userboxes myself, and I know nothing about working with them, but I HAVE climbed some Wikipedia learning curves with tables, etc. The curves aren't real steep, there's usually some online help, and it's rewarding when you figure everything out. Lou Sander (talk) 21:34, 27 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. I've set the table to have flexible width. What do you think of them now? Amy Z 20:55, 29 June 2011 (UTC)
Moving in the right direction. There ought to be a way to make the columns the same width as the userboxes. (I don't know what it is, though.) I experimented a LOT with tables many months ago. I don't remember much of what I learned, but I saved some examples HERE. You may be able to make some sense of it. Lou Sander (talk) 00:05, 30 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Archive

[edit]

I saw (on my Watchlist) the massive shrinkage of this page, and thought you might have just wiped a lot of stuff out. But no, you no-longer-a-complete-beginner-Wikipedian, you made an Archive! Nice work. Lou Sander (talk) 21:08, 30 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

Thank you for experimenting with Wikipedia. Your test worked, and the page that you created has been or soon will be deleted. Please use the sandbox for any other tests you want to do. Take a look at the welcome page if you would like to learn more about contributing to our encyclopedia.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion," which appears inside of the speedy deletion ({{db-...}}) tag (if no such tag exists, the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate). Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you.

Teaching with Wikipedia Workshop at CMU (Aug 15)

[edit]

Since you are one of the editors in the Category:Wikipedians by alma mater: Carnegie Mellon University, I'd like to invite you to the Teaching with Wikipedia Workshop that will take place at CMU on Aug 15 (this workshop is open to general public, and is a joint imitative of CMU and Pitt). There will be another workshop held at Pitt in the Fall as well. It will cover how to include Wikipedia in one's course (WP:SUP) and also how to become a Wikipedia:Campus Ambassadors. Pennsylvania has currently only one ambassador (myself) and it would be great if we could recruit at least several more. Ambassadors help course instructors, showing them how Wikipedia works, and interact with students. Many current ambassadors come from the body of students, faculty and university staff; it is a fun adventure, and adds to one resume/CV, to boot :) If it sounds interesting, feel free to ask me any questions, or to come to the workshop.--Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| talk 20:06, 9 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the suggestion

[edit]

Amy, I changed the link for "signed into law" from a "http" link to an interwiki link. Thanks for the suggestion.

The hyperlinks for three "Past Presidents" are probably not in accordance with the Wikipedia style manual. I could have put those hyperlinks into references but I am not going to. I like the way those links look now and I am going to leave them that way. As far as I am concerned, having the external link arrow symbol at the end of a line of text is perfectly stylish.
