Page | Description |
---|---|
Wikipedia:Article titles | Explains naming conventions for titles of articles in Wikipedia. |
Wikipedia:Articles for deletion | This page can be used to nominate articles for deletion, as well as add comments and votes for articles that are currently nominated for deletion. |
Wikipedia:Categorizing redirects | Provides information about adding redirects into categories. |
Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion | Provides information for how to nominate articles and other pages that can be deleted without having to start a discussion on Wikipedia:Articles for deletion. |
Wikipedia:Disambiguation pages with links | Explains how to fix links that unintentionally link to disambiguation pages. Also, this page lists a contest that happens every month for editors to have a friendly competition to see who can fix the most unintentional links to disambiguation pages. (For example, making a link towards Programming link towards Computer programming instead.) |
Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion | This page can be used to nominate redirects for deletion, as well as add comments and votes for redirects that are currently nominated for deletion. |
Wikipedia:Requests for page protection | This page is used to request any page in Wikipedia for various forms of page protection. |
Wikipedia:Requested moves | This page can be used to recommend pages for title changes that could be considered controversial (meaning that another editor might disagree with the title change.) |
Wikipedia:Requested moves/Technical requests | This page can be used to request pages for title changes that could not be considered controversial. Some examples include title misspellings, commas placed incorrectly, incorrect capitalization, etc. |
Wikipedia:Requests for permissions | This page is used to request additional user permissions (such as reviewer, rollback, file mover, account creator, autopatrolled, and confirmed.) |
Wikipedia:Service awards | This page contains a list of awards that can be placed on your own user page, stating how long you have been a Wikipedian and how many edits you have done. (Yes, talking to you directly is intentional here.) |
Wikipedia:Template messages | The general list of messages that can be placed via templates (also known as "canned" messages.) |
Wikipedia:Template messages/Cleanup | Templates that turn into automatic messages that pertain to marking articles that need to be cleaned up in certain ways. |
Wikipedia:Template messages/Deletion | Templates that turn into automatic messages that pertain to either deleting pages, or the history of a page being proposed for deletion. |
Wikipedia:Template messages/Redirect pages | Templates that can be placed on redirect pages, most of which put the redirect into categorie(s). |
Wikipedia:Template messages/User talk namespace | This list contains various automatic messages ("canned" responses) that could be placed on a user's talk page (such as notifying them that an article they have created is up for deletion, warning them to stop edit warring, etc.) |
Category:Infobox templates | A category that contains several templates that are used for infoboxes. |
Category:People and person infobox templates | A category that lists infobox templates that can be used for articles about people. |
Category:Wikipedia articles with an infobox request | A category that lists articles that need an infobox. |
Special:BookSources | A tool that helps locate books by ISBN. |
Special:Contributions | A tool that is used to search for a list of an editor's contributions. |
Special:PrefixIndex | A tool that lists all articles starting with whatever text is entered. |
Special:Search | This tool searches for articles by name, rather than automatically going to the article that is typed in the search box. For example, if "Lady Gaga" were typed in the search box and enter was pressed, normally, it would direct automatically to Lady Gaga; on the Special:Search page, instead, it looks for any articles that might be related to the "Lady Gaga" text. |
Template:Cite book | This template is used when writing articles as a way to enter citations that come from books. |
Template:Cite web | This template is used when writing articles as a way to enter citations that come from internet pages/web sites. |
Template:Compact ToC | A template that can be used to create a custom table of contents on an article. |
Template:R template index | A list of templates that put redirects tagged with them into certain categories. (Similiar to Wikipedia:Template messages/Redirect pages.) |
Template:TOC index | Template that can be used to list a table of contents that can help alphabetize groups of index pages sorted alphabetically. |
Edit counter | This tool helps count edits made. However, it loses a bit of its usefulness once more than 45,000 edits have been made. Right now, it's set up to look up my stats. To look up another user's stats instead, in the URL that appears when this link is clicked on, replace my name in the URL (Steel1943) with the name of the user that you would like to see's stats. |
Some sort of Class/Importance lookup tool | This tool helps find what class and importance some articles have been assessed as on their talk pages. (I had previous called this link "Some sort of Class/Importance lookup tool.") |
My Subpages | This link shows all of the subpages of this page (User:Cky2250). |
