Question from Andreas Christian (13:15, 25 April 2023)

Hi Tol, thanks for dropping in Sorry for being a rather amateur but I do try my best, hopefully could gain experience in the next few months! For the moment, I would like to ask how I might get my user page started Any details I must know? And how do I create a userbox, since I have no idea whatsoever. Thanks in advance! --Andreas Christian (talk) 13:15, 25 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

No problem, @Andreas Christian! You can find information about what you can put on your user page in the user page guideline, while you can learn about userboxes in the userboxes guideline. You can also take a look at some galleries of existing userboxes, if you'd like. Please let me know if you have any further questions! Tol (talk | contribs) @ 20:52, 25 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, @Gorkhapatra Online, and welcome to Wikipedia! Your three drafts, Draft:Madhupark Monthly Magazine, Draft:Yuwamunch Monthly Magazine, and Draft:Muna Monthly Magazine, all appeared to be in Nepali. They were recently declined because this is the English language Wikipedia, and so all submissions should be in English. If you wish to write articles in Nepali, please do so on the Nepali Wikipedia; otherwise, please translate them to English. Also, please note that, if you are an employee of the organisation that publishes these magazines, you have a conflict of interest with the subjects, and so are strongly discouraged to write about them. Please read our conflict of interest guideline for information on this; in particular, please read the section on how to disclose your conflict of interest. If you are being paid to edit Wikipedia, there are additional policies you must follow, as well. Please let me know if you have any further questions!
