User talk:PonyEventer

PonyEventer, it looks like you have an interest in Western dressage and we don't have a wikipedia article about it. So if you'd like to try your hand at creating a new article, Click on this link to create a "sandbox" in your user space to experiment with an article - I'd be glad to help you get started. When it is ready to go up as a real article, I can also help you with that process! Montanabw^(talk) 18:41, 21 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Montanabw, I'm not sure if I'm doing this right or if I should post on your talk page, but I have a very basic draft of a western dressage article in my sandbox, but I have no idea as to how I format it correctly? I also do not know how to add a picture? PonyEventer (talk) 11:35, 22 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I made a couple minor changes to your sandbox, you are off to a good start. I will watchlist your page and we can talk here. (But If I don't get back to you in a day or two, you can "ping" me with a message on my talk that I need to come over here... ) I usually use the "edit source" button to edit wikipedia (the "edit" button using Visual editor is new and I'm not very good with it, you may need help at the WP:Teahouse on that). But if you want to add a photo, it usually has to be a free image available at Wikimedia Commons (http://commons.wikimedia.org) - you can upload photos you take yourself there, too. (Image policy on wikipedia is really complicated, you can't use just anything you find on the web, most of it has a copyright). If you find something you'd like to use, link the URL here for me and I will tell you if we can make it work or not. I find that the easiest way to do formatting things, like adding a photo, is to "steal" the computer syntax from another article as a guide. Montanabw^(talk) 18:14, 22 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
