Help me![edit]

How do I post on another member's talk page? I don't see any way to type/enter a message. Also which browsers does Wkipedia work best with? Firefox seems to not work and I'm having problems on my kindle, even when I switch to desktop. Thanks.

Please help me with...

Aurornisxui (talk) 16:41, 21 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I'm going to talk about how to get things in desktop view. To me, mobile view seems like a read-mainspace-only medium.
To post on another editor's talk page, you first have to get to the page. It sounds like you are able to do that but are then stymied.
In the desktop view, there are tabs labeled "Edit" and "New section". Also, each section (or thread) on the talk page should have an "edit" button next to the section header. That's the way to open up an edit window into which you can start typing your question or response.
I only ever use Chrome or Firefox and both work just fine in the environments where I've tried them: Chromebook, Windows 7, Windows 10. I've successfully, but not always happily, used Chrome on Amazon Fire tablets, Android tablets, and iOS devices. I can't speak to how Firefox works on these, since I've not tried it (or at least not recently), but Firefox on Linux also seems to work fine.
I can't speak about actual Kindle devices, since I've not tried one. — jmcgnh(talk) (contribs) 17:13, 21 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Basic formatting of user page

Please help me with...I've found all the information on creating user pages. Maybe I'm not reading carefully enough but all I want to start with is a way to make 2 columns at the beginning so I can put some user boxes to the right of the text. Thanks

Aurornisxui (talk) 21:16, 24 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia:Userboxes gives various ways of grouping and arranging userboxes. You may also want to take a look at the source code of the page; they put three example userboxes at the top right, and you may want to simply copy that approach. Huon (talk) 23:14, 24 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, I see what went wrong. I've fixed the links in Wikipedia:WikiProject Palaeontology/Participants and they now point to your user page and talk page. The page which is up for deletion is in article-space - i.e. it is an article, not a user page. So, do please let it be deleted - it is not doing any good. thx --Tagishsimon (talk) 21:09, 26 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Okay, no problem, I was beginning to think that's where I messed up. Thanks for changing everything and being patient with me. Aurornisxui (talk) 21:11, 26 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
No probs. It all arose because the links on the participants page were not correct - see this diff of the fix to see the problem ... the link was lacking the User: prefix. --Tagishsimon (talk) 21:14, 26 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Formatting I can't change

Please help me with...I took my name off of this list Wikipedia:WikiProject Women in Red/Outreach/List, and I cannot properly reformat it so the numbering continues uninterrupted. When I move the line up, it does not allow me to save the changes. I was number 60.

using tag and link on same word

Please help me with...I need to tag a word not a typo AND I want to wikilink it. Does the wikilink brackets go around the word within the tag or around the whole tag? Thanks.

Aurornisxui (talk) 03:15, 9 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Good question. I had to experiment using preview to answer.
Looks like you do it like this: {{not a typo|example}}. So just the word within the tag. -- I dream of horses  If you reply here, please ping me by adding {{U|I dream of horses}} to your message  (talk to me) (My edits) @ 05:24, 9 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I dream of horses Thank you! I even figured out what the tlp in the markup did. I do have another question. I want to add as wikilink a section of an article. I tried this {{Not a typo|[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_chicken_colours#Barred_and_cuckoo crele]}}, but I'm getting an outside link (with the blue box and arrow) crele. ""Somewhere"", I've read of a way to make external links look like internal links, but I can't find it now. Since this is within an article, I'd rather have the link without the box and arrow, if that's possible. Aurornisxui (talk) 16:32, 9 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Draftify[edit]

Greetings and Happy Holidays. I noticed your comments at Talk:Tabiti#Merge regarding your !vote to "Draftify" and even "if" the discussion was the proper place. First, I see that you are a newer editor so "Welcome".
In AFD discussions the options are: "Common outcomes are that the article is kept, merged, redirected, incubated, renamed/moved to another title, userfied to a user subpage, or deleted per the deletion policy.". In any of these cases an article can end up, by discussion, by admin decision, or by a request, to be userfied by Wikipedia:Requests for undeletion, usually if material is not objectionable as content and following certain restrictions.
The problem with the article in question is that it is currently a dictionary (policy) entry, also covered under "What Wikipedia is not" (policy), not that the term is not notable. In this case deleting the entry (merging) does not delete the word from Wikipedia. Since it is covered under Scythian religion#Pantheon it can be expanded there and might be a reason a request may be denied.
I didn't even get into the fact that the page was created by a single purpose account, actually with the same name as the article, but I did contribute to that article concerning Tabiti with references. My advice (if a merge is the result) is to contribute to that page with references and at a point it should be acceptable to fork maybe along the lines of Argimpasa. Remember that sources on an article are not considered "mandatory" but do provide evidence of notability (on all articles even standalone lists) that will become more important if contested. I hope you are around a long time and again; Happy Holidays!, Otr500 (talk) 17:57, 31 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@Otr500: The draftify comment, which I acknowledged might not be in the correct place, was made on the merge discussion on Tabiti's talk page, not on AfD. Emotions are high on this article and I was trying to offer a solution other than merge. I still intend to go back and add resources to this page, sometime in the future, whether Tabiti is an article of its own or part of Scythian Mythology. I believe that Tabiti needs its own article, though I admit to being disappointed that people who were arguing so vehemently to keep it, don't seem interested enough in adding the references. I do feel like you are trying to change my opinion with your comment. Aurornisxui (talk) 18:16, 31 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
WOW! talk about not being able to win for losing. I personally really don't care what your decision is, changed or unchanged. I started the discussion so know where it is located. I saw you were (supposedly) a new user that made comments of confusion concerning "draftify". This happens all the time and when I see an editor that makes a lot of help requests I thought I would reply since nobody else did. The mention of AFD was to show all the results (like I did that includes draftify) and that there are options of which yours would be part of, also adding that no matter what, you can edit the target page if a merge is decided. I don't understand the part about "Emotions are high...". Likely those too invested possibly should step back.
The subject is not something I have interest in, but "I" did add "content" and references and also added "Argimpasa" as an example, as it appeared you did have interest. I apologize for trying to help-- and you need not reply. Still, Happy Holidays, Otr500 (talk) 19:37, 31 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Formatting geo coordinates

Please help me with...Is there an easy way to format coordinates, or do I have to pipe eaver single one I want to make (groan). I know about the coord template, but I still, as far as I know, have to format them. I have a lot I want to do. Is there an wasier way than using the coord template? Thanks. Aurornisxui (talk) 17:20, 6 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Aurornisxui (talk) 17:20, 6 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not sure what you want to do. Can you maybe provide an example? What do you have to start with, what should the result be? If you have a bunch of coordinates and want to turn them into a specific format - say, instances of {{coord}} filled out with those coordinates - it may be easiest to do that in some text editor, not on Wikipedia itself. Huon (talk) 19:46, 6 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I want to make coordinates like the first example on the template you linked to. I was hoping there was a way to plug in the raw datad, like '57°18′22″N 4°27′32″W" and get this {{Coord|57|18|22|N|4|27|32|W|}} without having to do it manually. Barring that, I am wondering it there is some other way to get coordinates. Swedish Wikipedia is using what looks like an easier way in their table, | lat = 56.20576, | long = 14.83364, but they are also formatting their table differently than I am here. Why do you think a text editor would be easier? Aurornisxui (talk) 20:17, 6 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Some text editors allow you to edit in "column mode": Put all your coordinates in a list, one per line, add some columns at the beginning, fill the first few with "{{coord|", replace the content of the "°" column with "|" and so on, until you have what you want. You could also try something like Excel; that also offers limited string-editing functions that could be used. Some templates on the English Wikipedia also accept the "|lat=X|long=Y" format you say the Swedish Wikipedia uses; in fact, {{coord|44.112|-87.913}} also works (note the minus sign for West). Huon (talk) 15:15, 7 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Huon Thank you! I can do find and replace on wikipedia! And I'll look at the tlx as well. Aurornisxui (talk) 16:18, 7 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
{{tlx}} merely is meant to make displaying template code easier when you talk about them. The full description of the {{coord}} template may be worth a look, though. Huon (talk) 19:19, 7 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

ArbCom 2019 election voter message[edit]

Hello! Voting in the 2019 Arbitration Committee elections is now open until 23:59 on Monday, 2 December 2019. All eligible users are allowed to vote. Users with alternate accounts may only vote once.

The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to impose binding solutions to disputes between editors, primarily for serious conduct disputes the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the authority to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail.

If you wish to participate in the 2019 election, please review the candidates and submit your choices on the voting page. If you no longer wish to receive these messages, you may add {{NoACEMM}} to your user talk page. MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 00:24, 19 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
