Proposed deletion of Lonniedos[edit]

The article Lonniedos has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

No coverage in independent sources; fails WP:GNG.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Jalen D.

Piped link and italics[edit]

Hi EricDoesEditS! Thanks for your edits. On Simlish, I noticed you added italics to an album title. In the future, you do not need to make a piped link, but can add italics straight away. Hope this helps. Thanks and happy editing. soetermans. ^{↑↑↓↓←→←→ B A TALK} 19:31, 9 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

how do i do that? EricDoesEdits (talk) 20:09, 9 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

You can make a piped link, a wikilink, by using brackets. That's two of these: [[ with ]] at the end. So [[Simlish]] becomes Simlish.

To make a word, or wikilink, show up in italics, use two straight apostrophes. That's these characters: '', in front and back of what you want to see in italics. So ''Versions of Me'' shows up as Versions of Me. And with the wikilink, Versions of Me.

If you have any other questions, feel free to ask! soetermans. ^{↑↑↓↓←→←→ B A TALK} 20:27, 9 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

ah i see! i use the visual editor so i don't know what goes on in the source, but i guess it's worth checking when i do things like this. thanks for the help! EricDoesEdits (talk) 20:40, 9 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Oh right, of course! I'm sorry, I'm such a Wikipedia dinosaur, I'm used to the old, archaic layout and I've switched back. Sorry for the unnecessary tutorial! soetermans. ^{↑↑↓↓←→←→ B A TALK} 07:37, 10 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

all good! EricDoesEdits (talk) 12:36, 10 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
