Remember to always sign your posts on talk pages. You can do this either by clicking on the button on the edit toolbar or by typing four tildes (~~~~) at the end of your post. This will automatically insert your signature, a link to this (your talk) page, and a timestamp.

The best way to learn about something is to experience it. Explore, learn, contribute, and don't forget to have some fun!
To get some practice editing you can use a sandbox. You can create your own private sandbox for use any time. Perfect for working on bigger projects. Then for easy access in the future, you can put {{My sandbox}} on your userpage.

Adopt a journalist project[edit]

Cnbroady, You are assigned Disappearance of Mario Segura (click here to edit). Crtew (talk) 22:04, 20 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

You had questions about viability: New sources indicate that Segura was released and is now displaced and working as a clown. As for the viability, I tend to agree with ComputerJA. He is the Wikipedia expert I turn to for questions about the security of Mexican journalists. Crtew (talk) 16:52, 5 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

You have to copy from the page generated to your article and then save your article! Crtew (talk) 23:04, 20 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

License tagging for File:Mario Segura.jpeg[edit]

Thanks for uploading File:Mario Segura.jpeg. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information.

To add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia. For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 04:05, 6 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

You forgot the tagging processing with the template. I dropped it in for you. Crtew (talk) 06:45, 6 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Suggestions for Mario Segura page[edit]

Hello! I thought that your page was very informative on your subject. However, there are a few things I think you can focus on fixing in order to make it better! Here is what I would fix if it were my page:

1. There are some grammatical errors on the page. This would be a very quick and easy fix and if you took a few minutes to read through I’m sure you would be able to notice and change them.

2. In the introduction to your page, it appears as if you left the bulleted list of links, which Dr. Tew provided to help you get started. Once these are used to help you write your article and put in the references section of your page, I am pretty sure the list can be deleted off of your page, as that is not the traditional format of a Wikipedia page.

3. You have many links for references on your page that you have not used within the article to reference anything. It is very important to use more than the few you have used in the page. Also, nothing in your introduction is referenced.

Good luck! Cmriley3 (talk) 19:39, 7 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

User:Cmriley3 is on target here. There are 17 references and only two of those are used to construct the article. Look for what is new categorizing facts section by section as you read through them! Crtew (talk) 21:01, 7 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned non-free image File:Mario Segura.jpeg[edit]

⚠

Thanks for uploading File:Mario Segura.jpeg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Stefan2 (talk) 21:33, 19 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
