Tip of the day...

Pretty tables

When using tables in articles, consider using class="wikitable" at the top of the table, like so: {| class="wikitable". This puts a grey border around all the cells, gives heading cells a grey tint, and uses many other common formatting settings without having to spell them all out.

Here are additional resources suitable for new as well as expert contributors:

• Introduction to tables – a four part quick introduction
• How to use tables – when and how tables should be used on Wikipedia
• Table accessibility – Manual of Style guidelines
• Table customising and styles – Styles and tricks to customise tables

Belinda Blinked

Hello Greg, have a read here about WP:CWW about taking information from one page within wikipedia (My Dad Wrote a Porno) to another (Belinda Blinked). Basically what you are doing is replicating the page without any attribution, which is not good practice, firstly because its not necessary to have two virtually identical pages, but also it may inadvertantly appear that you are claiming you did the work yourself. I will take a look and trim some of it out, but in future you need to properly attribute copied work and I think at the least you need to make an attribution on talk explaining that the work is copied. I can see that you are a new editor so if there is anything you would like help with don't hesitate to ask on my talk page. Thanks. Mramoeba (talk) 09:01, 23 September 2017 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Oshwah. I noticed that you made a change to an article, DJ Nihal, but you didn't provide a source. I’ve removed it for now, but if you’d like to include a citation to a reliable source and re-add it, please do so! If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. ~Oshwah~^{(talk) (contribs)} 18:26, 8 July 2018 (UTC)
