[change] Welcome to Simple English Wikipedia

Hi Alexhl, welcome to Simple English Wikipedia! Thank you for your changes. If you need help, check out the Help section of Wikipedia, or leave a message on my talk page. Whenever leaving messages on talk pages, please remember to sign your name by typing four 'tildes' (like this: ~~~~); doing this makes your name and the date show up. Also, it helps if you write something in the box that says 'edit summary' whenever you change an article. Below are some useful links to make your time here simpler. Happy editing! - Huji ^reply 13:52, 12 September 2007 (UTC)

[change] Copy pastes

Simple English Wikipedia is an encyclopedia on its own. It is not created by copy-pasting articles from other places, even the English Wikipedia. Articles which are copied rom English Wikipedia and are not sipmlified may be deleted very soon. Please write the articles with your own sentences, cite reliable references, and use simple English in your writings. - Huji ^reply 13:52, 12 September 2007 (UTC)

[change] BoA

I undid a change you made to BoA. The template {{BD}} will put a person in category living people if the date of death is left blank, so there is no need to add it yourself. Saves time. :)--Bärl iner 12:23, 13 January 2008 (UTC)

Thanks. Alexhl (talk) 08:02, 20 April 2008 (UTC)

[change] Signature

Signatures in a single color, bolded are relatively easy.

Dark blue, bold (with talk)

-- [[User:Alexhl|Alexhl]] ([[User_talk:Alexhl|talk]])

-- Alexhl (talk)

(The talk block does not link on your own talk page as it is a self-referring link, it does link on all other pages to allow others to more easily get to your talk page.)

Dark blue, Bold (no talk)

-- [[User:Alexhl|Alexhl]]

-- Alexhl

To use:

Go to My preferences
Enter the coding into the box named "Nickname"
Click the block that says "Raw signatures (without automatic link)"
Click Save

Hope this helps. -- Creol(talk) 05:11, 14 January 2008 (UTC)

Thank you! Alexhl (talk) 06:53, 19 January 2008 (UTC)Alexhl

[change] Kentwood

Why did you blank Kentwood?. This is vandalism. If an article need to be deleted it should be marked as such, so that it can go through the proper procedures.--Bärl iner 11:04, 17 January 2008 (UTC)

"Kentwood" was a redirect page. It was moved form "Kentwood" to "Kentwood, Louisiana" but since the links to the original "Kentwood" had all been changed to "Kentwood, Louisiana", I didn't see the need of having a redirect. Alexhl (talk) 06:40, 19 January 2008 (UTC)Alexhl

No problem. But you should mark the page {{qd}} if it is to be deleted. In the case of a redirect, just leave them. Anybody searching for Kentwood is then led straight to Kentwood LA without needing to search. When I move a page I often change the links, but still leave the redirect. Happy editing --Bärl iner 12:21, 19 January 2008 (UTC)

[change] Han

I deleted Han because it was too short. The infobox you used did not exist in our wiki. Please make sure you don't copy information from other websites. Articles or sections copied from English Wikipedia may be removed, unless they are simplified. If you decide to create Han again, please add some information (text) to it, written in Simple English. Cheers, - Huji ^reply 08:57, 19 January 2008 (UTC)

[change] Picture

Images needs to be uploaded to commons.wiki. SEWP does not allow direct upload of images. Any image on commons should be useable here. Are you still having problems?--Bärl iner 13:00, 21 January 2008 (UTC)

Ah, I see. That explains it. Thanks! Alexhl (talk) 11:36, 11 February 2008 (UTC)

[change] Links

I've put links to forums on 5566 because it was the only source of un-cited information. Is that OK? 124.179.218.21 (talk) 11:48, 3 February 2008 (UTC)

Sure. Alexhl (talk) 00:24, 3 March 2008 (UTC)
