Hello Mark and inwardly digest. Welcome to Wikipedia and thank you for your contributions!

There are many ways you can contribute to Wikipedia. Here are a few ideas:
  Fight vandalism
  Be a WikiFairy or a WikiGnome
  Help contribute to articles
  Perform maintenance tasks
           
  Become a member of a project that interests you
  Help design new templates
  Subscribe and contribute to The Signpost

To get some practice editing you can use a sandbox. You can create your own personal sandbox for use any time. It's perfect for working on bigger projects. Then for easy access in the future, you can put {{My sandbox}} on your userpage.

Please remember to:

  • Always sign your posts on talk pages. You can do this either by clicking on the button on the edit toolbar or by typing four tildes ~~~~ at the end of your post. This will automatically insert your signature, a link to your talk page, and a timestamp.
  • Leave descriptive edit summaries for your edits. Doing so helps other editors understand what changes you have made and why you made them.
The best way to learn about something is to experience it. Explore, learn, contribute, and don't forget to have some fun!

Camila Batmanghelidjh

[edit]

Hi, I saw you added 1 January 1963 as Camila's date of birth, because a lot of sources are saying she died on her birthday. She celebrated her birthday on 1 January but her birth was never registered so she didn't even know her own actual date of birth. See this article from the BBC which confirms her date of birth is unknown.  dummelaksen  (talkcontribs) 02:32, 7 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Fair enough - that wasn't made clear in a lot of the articles about her death. Mark and inwardly digest (talk) 08:42, 7 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Harry the house

[edit]

Hi,

The IP user you reverted here is a very prolific blocked editor, "Harry the house". Could you keep an eye out for his work? He tends to edit pages on British politics and television, and has a fondness for changing "after" to "following", as well as adding "piped" forms to random links and overlinking the names of Labour politicians. This was Harry, and so was this, and this, and this, and this, and this, and this, and this, and this, and most of these, and many, many more.

Best wishes, Jean-de-Nivelle (talk) 10:22, 21 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

PS

The other thing is that Wikipedia actually prefers redirects to piped links. Please have a look at MOS:LINK, WP:NOTBROKEN and WP:NOPIPE.

☒N [[Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart|Mozart]]

checkY [[Mozart]]

Best wishes, Jean-de-Nivelle (talk) 10:40, 21 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

OK, thanks - I mistakenly thought that piped links were preferred. Mark and inwardly digest (talk) 12:23, 21 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
It's a really common misperception, but I'm doing my best to spread the word. If you'd like a good practical example of the advantages of redirection, see the example of [[Henry VIII of England|Henry VIII]] here. Jean-de-Nivelle (talk) 12:37, 21 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
[edit]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited QI, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Ed Byrne. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

1988 POTUS election

[edit]

I mean nobody managed to inherit presidency from a party mate since 1988. Clinton grabbed from GOP in 92, Bush 43 took from DEM in 2000, Obama won from GOP in 08, Trump takes twice from DEM, Biden got once from GOP. Em 88 (talk) 13:46, 14 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

OK, I see what you mean now - thanks for clarifying. Mark and inwardly digest (talk) 14:10, 14 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
