I just wanted to say 'Hi" since we will be working on the wikipedia project together with Sonya. How are you enjoying the class so far? I like the menu you added to the top of your userpage

Hi Harshil
[edit]Hello, my name is Sonya and I'm looking forward to working with you and learning more about the world of wikipedia seeing how this is my first experience with editing pages as well. Sridenour (talk) 22:45, 24 September 2013 (UTC)
- Hi Sonya, nice meeting you on wikipedia and look forward working with you and Lutyeus on our group assignment. I am in the same boat as you are, this is my first online class and first detailed experience with wikipedia. Cheers!Igenes (talk) 02:31, 25 September 2013 (UTC)
- Im hoping it will become easier to remember all the wiki codes for things like bolding and indenting but I have a pretty good list going now for the formatting. Sridenour (talk) 22:29, 25 September 2013 (UTC)
Hi Igenes, my name is Jethro. I noticed you created an article, User Home:Igenes in the mainspace. This is actually an inappropriate place to create the kind of page you are making, which is better suited for your userpage, because the mainspace is where articles on specific topics are written, whereas personal details about yourself should go on your userpage. I've moved what you wrote to a subpage of your userpage, which can be found at User:Igenes/Home. Eventually, you may want to move it your userpage when you're ready. Anyway, this wasn't a big deal at all, so don't worry too much about it. Thanks, I, JethroBT drop me a line 21:37, 27 September 2013 (UTC)

[edit]Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but in this recent edit you removed a speedy deletion tag from User Home:Igenes, a page you have created yourself. If you believe the page should not be deleted, you may contest the deletion by clicking on the button that says: Click here to contest this speedy deletion and appears inside the speedy deletion notice. This will allow you to make your case on the page's talk page. Administrators will consider your reasoning before deciding what to do with the page. Thank you. ///EuroCarGT 22:00, 27 September 2013 (UTC)
Let me know if you need help
[edit]Hi, Harshil, I see from your talk page above that you've been having a little bit of trouble. Please let me know if you don't understand any of the messages, or what is going on. Here are a couple of points, just to clarify things:
- I looks like you accidentally create a page called "User Home:Igenes", which maybe was your attempt to create a sandbox. It looks a little bit like a cross between "User:Igenes" and "User_talk:Ignese", both of which are valid pages (and already exist). So, I'm not quite sure where you got that name from. But, anyway, it was deleted, and that explains some of the semi-automated messages you got above.
- In your message to Sonya above, you didn't do the indentation quite right. Take a look, and you'll see that in appears as preformatted text that scrolls off the right end of the screen. The reason is that you used spaces to indent the first line. Instead, you should use a colon as the very first thing on the line, like this: ": Hi Sonya, nice meeting you ...". Try to edit it now to see if you can fix it.
Don't worry about these small mistakes. Keep trying and you will get the hang of it. Let me know if you have any questions. Klortho (talk) 02:18, 1 October 2013 (UTC)
