Please help me with...
I am new at Wikipedia, don't know much code. Have been using the beta version to make what few edits that I can. Anyway, I am trying to center a number within one column and do not know how do this. For example the number 55 inside an 8 space column. Any help would be greatly appreciated, and as I have said, I am new at all this and not even sure if I have formatted by question right within my creating user talk page. Thanks

- Hi, EagleTech199 – if we assume you are working with "tables", then the ability to center a number inside a column depends on which kind of table you choose to use. The page you should read to find out is:
- There are links in that page's hatnote and in the See also section at the bottom of the page that will further aid you with tables if needed. Hope this helps! Painius 02:23, 9 September 2015 (UTC)

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 this (your talk) page, and a timestamp.
To get some practice editing you can use a sandbox. You can create your own private sandbox for use any time. Perfect for working on bigger projects. Then for easy access in the future, you can put
{{My sandbox}} on your userpage.Adding an image to a wikipedia page
editHow would one add an image to a Wikipedia article that is already saved as a file? Read the page on uploading the image to a Wikipedia article. Tried some of the code for a jpg, but unable to get it uploaded to the Wikipedia article, which is named Martian Hop. The image uploaded web url is https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Cover_sleeve_of_the_1963_single_Martian-Hop_by_the_group_The_Ran-Dells.jpg As I have little experience on Wikipedia any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks. EagleTech199 (talk) 11:38, 12 September 2015 (UTC)
- Hi again, EagleTech199 – did you read Help:Files#Using files? That is a description of how to add an image file to any page, including articles. For more details about this, you can go to Wikipedia:Extended image syntax. Hope this helps! Painius 20:19, 13 September 2015 (UTC)
Speedy deletion nomination of Sports discussion north american football
edit
If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. This is a notice that Sports discussion north american football, a page that you created, has been tagged for deletion. This has been done under two or more of the criteria for speedy deletion, by which articles can be deleted at any time, without discussion. If the page meets any of these strictly-defined criteria, then it may be soon be deleted by an administrator. The reasons it has been tagged are:
- It is an article with no content whatsoever, or whose contents consist only of external links, a "See also" section, book references, category tags, template tags, interwiki links, a rephrasing of the title, or an attempt to contact the subject of the article. (See section A3 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) Wikipedia has standards for the minimum necessary information to be included in short articles; you can see these at Wikipedia:Stub. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.
- It covers a topic on which we already have an article - Comparison of American football and Canadian football. (See section A10 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) Please note that this is not a comment on you personally and we hope you will continue helping to improve Wikipedia. If the topic of the article you created is one that interests you, then perhaps you would like to help out at Comparison of American football and Canadian football, or to discuss new information at the article's talk page.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.

Hello. I noticed that you created the article in order to ask a question. Unfortunately, the Article Namespace is not the place on Wikipedia to ask sports-related questions (or any form of question for that matter). Such matters are best asked at the Wikipedia Reference desk. As such, I have moved your question to this link. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 12:07, 14 September 2015 (UTC)

How did I mess up trying to add citations?
Please help me with... Been using Wikipedia for about a month and still learning. Tried to add citations to the page "Everybody's Got To Learn Sometime" by the band Korgis. It didn't go well as you can see by the Revision history: en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Everybody%27s_Got_to_Learn_Sometime&action=history Code kept showing up in the reference section. I first tried the Edit only version but then tried Edit Source and "went down the rabbit hole" trying to fix my problems. I don't want to get my account taken away or locked. What went wrong using the Edit only button or the Edit Source button. What help pages could I utilize. Thanks ahead of time.

- I recommend using something like ProveIt. Please note, YouTube is not a valid reference, and see WP:YOUTUBE for using it as an external link. -- Kethrus |talk to me 04:44, 30 September 2015 (UTC)
When to delete some parts of a song article.
editPlease help me with... Trying to edit the wikipedia article: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Everybody%27s_Got_to_Learn_Sometime There are 2-3 instances in 2 different places of chart positions that have no citation. Is it OK to go ahead and delete these, or should I add [citation needed] for each chart position? Or should I discuss this first on the article's talk page? (which by the way is rarely used so there will probably be no reply.) To note there is the "this article needs additional citations" box but it has been up for 2 years. I have tried looking for verification of the chart positions but seems it either doesn't exist or I would have to travel thousands of miles just to get verification. What is the best way to handle a situation like this? Thank you ahead of time. EagleTech199 (talk) 06:22, 13 October 2015 (UTC)
