- OK, I have changed the box on your user page. You will find that HTML does work on Wikipedia, but often isn't needed. If you have a look over the tutorial, you'll see that simple "wiki mark up" works. Things such as adding square brackets around words:
- Like this:
- [[User:Ccc999ccc999]] or [[Computer]]
- Will produce this:
- Basically, putting something in double square brackets links to that page name on Wikipedia, if it exists. The page name is what you see at the top of the page - this page's name is User talk:Ccc999ccc999. Easy, huh? Neil (not Proto ►) 23:03, 19 March 2007 (UTC)

Notability of Taylor Cheng
editA tag has been placed on Taylor Cheng, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article seems to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in Wikipedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.
If you feel that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion. To do this, add {{hangon}}
on the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag) and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.
For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Thatguy69 20:21, 23 April 2007 (UTC)

Argh
editIs this what happens when I adopt people before I go on a wikibreak!! Hi Seajay. I am still on a wikibreak, but if you do have any questions, leave them on my talk page and I will get back to you eventually - if you've got any problems with an area in particular (e.g., for example, maybe, images ... just saying :p ) then ask me anything you want about that issue. Be aware that if someone asks you not to do something, there's almost always a good reason - at least stop and make sure you know what you're doing before ccarrying on (I have done this sort of thing before, ignoring someone who did actually have a poitn because I disagreed ... it's not worth it).
