| Hi {{PAGENAME}}! As a new wiki user the following message is to say hi and let you know some of the wiki guidelines. It's OK to be new, and we understand that no one is a perfect wiki editor straight away, here some useful tips to help you out.
| |
|
| |
| {| style="width:600px; font-size:90%; margin:0 auto; border:solid 1px DarkKhaki; padding:7px; background: LightYellow; -moz-border-radius:12px;"

| | '''General Editing'''
| |
| |-
| |
| |
| |
| Every user begin with two pages.
| |
|
| |
| *User:Whatever
| |
|
| |
| and
| |
|
| |
| *User talk:Whatever.
| |
|
| |
| The appropriate place to write about yourself or your characters is on your user page, or a subpage of that page (e.g., [[User:{{PAGENAME}}/Your Character's Name]]). Please don't create pages about yourself outside the User: namespace. Those pages will be moved into subpages of your user page, and the original [[A/SD|speedily deleted]].
| |

| |
| |'''User Talk Pages'''
| |
| |-
| |
| |
| |
| Every user has a talk page, found by clicking the "discussion" link at the top of his or her user page, or by going directly to it (yours would be [[User talk:{{PAGENAME}}]]). If you have a question for someone, or want to say something to him or her, his or her user talk page is the place.
| |
|
| |
| *'''Most Importantly Never''' delete someone else's edits, comments, responses, etc. off community pages. To do so is considered [[UDWiki:Vandalism|vandalism]].
| |
|
| |
| *If you write a comment you should sign it so that other editors will know who wrote it. You can write "<code><nowiki>~~~~</nowiki></code>" at the end of your comment to sign it, or click this button [[Image:button_sig.png]] on the top of the edit page that will sign for you.
| |
| *You may want to know how your edits will look before they have been saved, to make sure that nothing is wrong. Use the "'''Preview'''" button before the "'''Save'''" button - it's your friend!
| |
|
| |
| *The wiki is a collaborative project, please do your best to [[Wikipedia:Wikipedia:Etiquette|work well with fellow editors]].
| |
|
| |
| Further help for editing the wiki can be found on the [[Help]] page.

| |
| |'''Your User Page'''
| |
| |-
| |
| |
| |
|
| |
|
| |
| The assumption is that you should place your comment at the bottom of the talk page, under a level 2 heading. This can be accomplished by clicking the "+" link next to the "edit" tab at the top of the talk page, or by manually typing in your message in this format:
| |
| {{Code|<nowiki>==</nowiki>Message title<nowiki>==</nowiki><p>Your message goes here</p>}}
| |
| When replying to a comment already laid on the page, remember to indent it correctly: do it by inserting as many colons plus one to the message you're replying to at the begining of your message, like this:
| |
| {{Code|<nowiki>==</nowiki>Message title<nowiki>==</nowiki>
| |
|
| |
| Your message
| |
|
| |
| <nowiki>:</nowiki>User's reply
| |
|
| |
| <nowiki>::</nowiki>Your reply}}
