    Don't spam
    Don't infringe copyright

If you need further help, you can:
    Ask a question
or you can:

Alternatively, leave me a message at my talk page or type {{Help me}} here on your talk page and someone will try to help.

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
    Translate articles from Wikipedias in other languages

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 user page. By the way, seeing as you haven't created a user page yet, simply click here to start it.

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!

NRL performance charts

edit

Great job with these charts, just a small nitpick on the 1998 NRL season — your finals cutoff line should be at 10 not 8. Cheers Storm machine (talk) 06:58, 12 July 2024 (UTC)Reply

Thanks for your feedback. Yes, you're right about 1998 - I'll have a look at it next time I update them all. I think the cutoff lines for the two competitions in 1997 will have to change as well. Pdf70 (talk) 09:58, 12 July 2024 (UTC)Reply

North Sydney Bears

edit

Hi,I noticed you made a made a couple of edits to the North Sydney Bears page last month. I've just noticed a couple of unidentified users making edits with news of the Western Bears. I thought I'd mention it, there could be some well intentioned new users learning how to edit articles on the fly - they might need a bit of leadership 😀 Cheers, Comes.amanuensis (talk) 11:31, 12 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

I was just adding in the performance charts, which I did for every NRL team. For the Bears page it looks like the infobox has gone with the recent edits. Hopefully they can learn to check that their changes went through as they expected. I'd expect also that in time it would be a good idea if someone sets up a Western Bears page.
