I'm a new user trying to upload an article. I pasted in the whole article but only the first sentence came up. I saved it anyway as a start - perhaps I shouldnt' have?

Also I want to change my username so I posted my request but I don't understand the difference between talk page and user page. So I created a new account with the name I prefer. I realise I hadn't actually created an account before, just a username.

Can you help me to load up my article, preferable with my new account name which is ArtLit? many thanks

Please could you tell me the name of the article?--Thw1309 08:34, 2 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The article is called Donald Meltzer

I discovered your mistake. You end your references with the wrong oder. The only working way is </ref>. You put the backslash behind the letters (ref/). So the server did not discover the end of the reference. You will see, I added a Chapter ==references==. You need to do this to make your quotations visible.

You have two possiblilities to change your Username.

  • You can create a new user ArtLit, the same way as you created Meghwilliams and ask the administrators to delete the old user. There is a possibility to rename your account.
  • There is a page Wikipedia:Changing username, where you can ask the administrators to rename, but I do not believe they will do this, because this will only be made to save accounts with many edits.

Please do not forget to sign your articles by pressing ~ four times or pressing the 10th button ahead of the writing field.

Thanks very much - I'd never have worked that out! Meghwilliams 12:35, 2 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
