Minor Edits

[edit]

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia!

I noticed in your contribs that both of your edits (so far) are flagged as minor. Given their size, I would disagree. I would appreciate if you look over the help page about minor edits before you continue editing.

Thanks! -- Wywin (talk | contribs) 18:11, 3 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I'm BracketBot. I have automatically detected that your edit to Sexual bullying may have broken the syntax by modifying 1 "{}"s. If you have, don't worry: just edit the page again to fix it. If I misunderstood what happened, or if you have any questions, you can leave a message on my operator's talk page.

List of unpaired brackets remaining on the page:
  • {{reflist}

Bracketbot has your back!

The nice thing about Wikipedia is that past revisions are saved. If you make a big mistake, select "view history" in the upper right tabs, and then you can look at previous revisions to correct your error.

You forgot to close the reflist template with double curly braces on either side. I have fixed it for you.

Wikipedia is pretty big and complicated, but once you get the basics down, it can be quite fun and rewarding. Let me know if you have any more questions!

You can also look at using Template: Help me if I don't answer. There are a remarkable number of helpful people on Wikipedia, and someone will surely help you soon enough!

A couple more notes.

[edit]

See also "Ignore all rules" and your sandbox. You'll need to create your sandbox page, but it is in your user namespace, so any changes you make won't bother the main encyclopedia namespace.

Make liberal use of your sandbox and the preview button (the button to the right of the "save page" button.

I appreciate that your first edit even had a citation on it! Citations take **far** too long for most people to learn.

As long as you are courteous (as you have been so far) and willing to learn, you should do fine here.

Good luck, and most importantly, have fun!

And remember to sign your posts! I still forget sometimes... :P -- Wywin (talk | contribs) 18:42, 3 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
