Adding portal templates

Hi, If you are going to add the indigenous peoples of North America template to every related article, could you please add it to the "see also" section, as outlined in Wikipedia:Portal#How to add portal links to articles? If there isn't a "see also" section, it's not difficult to create one.

If the related commons category is listed in the "external links" section, please leave it there, as outlined in Template:Commons category#Location. Either way these templates do not go in "notes" sections, especially when the notes are formatted in two columns. Thank you. -Uyvsdi (talk) 17:54, 27 August 2012 (UTC)Uyvsdi

Take two, you keep adding portal templates to "external link" section even in articles with existing "see also" sections. The portals are part of Wikipedia, not external websites, so therefore, again as spelled out in Wikipedia:Portal#How to add portal links to articles, they belong in the "see also" section. -Uyvsdi (talk) 16:31, 11 September 2012 (UTC)Uyvsdi

Disambiguation link notification for August 28

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Jean-Baptiste Hertel de Rouville, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Fort Dauphin (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Welcome to Wikipedia, and thank you for your contributions. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, please note that there is a Manual of Style that should be followed to maintain a consistent, encyclopedic appearance. Deviating from this style, as you did in Seneca people, makes articles harder to read. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. -Uyvsdi (talk) 16:31, 11 September 2012 (UTC)Uyvsdi

Invitation to join WikiProject Indigenous peoples of North America

Hello Donnacona! We'd love to have you at WikiProject Indigenous peoples of North America! Feel free to join us, and add the box below to your user page if you like. (You cut and paste the line with the two curly brackets ...)

And here is the "Watchlist" for all the recent changes to Native American and First Nations articles:

• Watchlist, WikiProject Indigenous peoples of North America

One of the great things about Wikipedia is that you don't need to do everything yourself, and it's fun working on articles with other editors who have the same interests. Djembayz (talk) 03:06, 2 February 2013 (UTC)

A belated welcome to you ...

You seem to be finding your way around just fine, but to make it a little easier, let me add a standard welcome template for you below with lots of useful links.
