Welcome to Wikipedia!

Hello, OneShot010, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are some tips that you might find helpful:

  • Link to other articles with [[double square brackets]]
  • Add pictures from Wikimedia Commons using [[double square brackets with|thumb for thumbnail|Left, right or center so it knows where to go|a meaningful caption|alt=a description for blind people]]
    • Example [[Image:Chocolate chip cookies.jpg|thumb|right|Wiki biscuits are guaranteed zero calories! ]]
    • Click here for an exercise in adding images to articles.
  • Now you know how to add pictures to Wikipedia, why not add your own? This shows you articles that are near you. Is there one without a picture or where you could take a better one? In many countries modern buildings are still copyrighted, but not in the UK and some other places. This is the upload page on Wikimedia Commons.
  • Add headings with ==double equal signs==
    • If an article has sections two editors can edit different sections simultaneously without edit conflicts. Four or more sections and you get a table of contents.
    • Here are articles where you can practice adding sections when you've finished splitting an article into sections you can delete {{sections|date=Month year}} from the top of the page.
      • ===subheadings are similar===
  • When you add information to Wikipedia please summarize things in your own words, and tell us where you got the information from in the following format <ref>[The webpage, book or magazine you are citing, a description, the word "retrieved" and today's date]</ref>
  • If you find unreferenced information on Wikipedia that you consider dubious or unlikely, first try to reference it yourself. If you know it is wrong, correct it, if you can't find a source then {{fact}} adds the famous [citation needed]. If, after a week no-one has referenced the information, feel free to remove it.
  • ''Double single quotes'' gives you Italic and '''triple quotes''' Bold.

Many Wikipedians organise themselves by subject area, we have hundreds of WikiProjects ranging from Arts to Zoology, and I'm sure there will be ones that fit your interests. A good place to look for them is Category:WikiProjects by topic, alternatively the talkpages of articles you are interested in may have links to relevant Wikiprojects.

Please remember to sign your messages on talk pages by typing four tildes (~~~~); this adds your username and the date. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, visit The Teahouse, ask me on my talk page, or ask for help on your talk page, and a volunteer should respond shortly. Again, welcome!

[edit]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited The Dresden Files short fiction, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Changes (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 13:17, 11 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Kincaid's dismissal in the Dresden Files

[edit]

Thanks for the message. That's a fair edit. At this point in time I agree it's definitely just a minor detail. When Ivy next makes an appearance in the Dresden Files, it may become more significant (or it may not - only Jim knows). Either way, the short fiction page seems like an appropriate place for it right now. Thanks again! Nick3193 (talk) 17:55, 10 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

About the thanks I sent

[edit]

That was an accident. I meant to thank an edit below yours.

But thank you for the extra line or whatever anyways. AdoTang (talk) 18:15, 18 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Revert in Sultan article

[edit]

Hello OneShot010,

You reverted my edit on Sultan here. About my edit: First I corrected the spelling error "Magnificient" with my modification – sorry, I should have mentioned that in my edit summary. Then, please note that piping should not used only for replacing a redirect by a direct link; for this please read WP:NOTBROKEN (and MOS:NOPIPE). With my edit, I tried to retain the spelling Suleyman - anyway, I've noticed now that at other places in the article the spelling is Suleiman, so I changed the article again now.
