Tabs

Making the user page tabs is actually quite easy, and it only requires some links in boxes. You could have just checked how I made my page (edit it), but I'll make it easy for you. Just edit the following part with your own pages (as if you were writing links) and place it at the top of your page:


{{PageTabs |[[User:Dogcowsaysmoof|Dogcowsaysmoof]] |[[User talk:Dogcowsaysmoof|Talk]] |[[Special:Contributions/Dogcowsaysmoof|Contributions]] |[[User:Dogcowsaysmoof/Guestbook|Guestbook]] |[[User:Dogcowsaysmoof/Barnstars|Barnstar Gallery]] |[[User:Dogcowsaysmoof/Sandbox|Sandbox]] |This={{{This|1}}}}}


PS: Forgive the lateness of my reply. I would be more than happy to do the tabs for you if you like. Dogcowsaysmoof (talk) 21:12, 8 November 2008 (UTC)

I already did the tabs for you, saving you a couple of minutes of precious time! I hope you like them, if you want anything else added to the tabs, just tell me! DogcowsaysmoofTalkGuestbookBarnstar GallerySandbox 02:00, 11 November 2008 (UTC)

References

How do I use the <ref></ref> tags? {{helpme}}

Include the reference in between the tags (you can use templates such as {{cite web}}, {{cite journal}}, etc.) and then ensure there is a {{reflist}} at the bottom of the article. –xeno (talk) 15:58, 8 October 2008 (UTC)

My edits in the WAGA personalities article

I'm sorry, but I was helping directly pointing wikilinks since it showed "(Redirected from)". --99.158.136.26 (talk) 02:13, 11 March 2009 (UTC)

Ah... You should seriously make an account...--Unionhawk (talk) 02:15, 11 March 2009 (UTC)

Welcome to ARS!

Hi, Unionhawk/Archives/2009, welcome to the Article Rescue Squadron!
 
Here to help articles tagged for rescue!

We are a growing community of Wikipedia editors dedicated to identifying and rescuing articles that have been tagged for deletion. Every day hundreds of articles are deleted, many rightfully so. But many concern notable subjects and are poorly written, ergo fixable and should not be deleted. We try to help these articles quickly improve and address the concerns of why they are proposed for deletion. This covers a lot of ground and your help is appreciated!

If you have any questions, feel free to ask on the talk page, and we will be happy to help you.

And once again - Welcome! -- Banjeboi 21:43, 1 April 2009 (UTC)

Gate River Run

Unionhawk, welcome to Wikipedia. Since you are relatively new, you may not be aware that if you revert edits to an article, you should add an explanation in the edit summary. According to Wikipedia:Vandalism,

"The edit summary is important in that it helps other editors understand the purpose to your edit. Though use of it is not required, it is strongly recommended, even for some minor edits, and is considered proper Wikipedia etiquette."

Even better is to make an entry on the article's talk page and on the contributor's talk page. If the reason for removing a contribution is not obvious to everyone, reverting could be construed as vandalism. I await your response. Mgreason (talk) 15:29, 16 March 2009 (UTC)

Hmm... you have a very good point. I guess I should be going for quality, not quantity.--Unionhawk (talk) 15:41, 16 March 2009 (UTC)

Moeller HS

Thanks for your edits to Moeller HS. Could you add a more reliable source to your addition to the laptop section on Moeller HS? As it stands now it seems like a veiled attempt to advertise a product. -- Lucas20 (talk) 20:33, 16 March 2009 (UTC)

hmm... you may be right. As it stands now, only that case study and the computer policies sheet mention it. Not very notable... Perfectly verifiable, but not really needed--Unionhawk (talk) 20:37, 16 March 2009 (UTC)

Moron trivia

Hi Hawk, hope you don't mind, but I've declined your speedy on Moron trivia and instead directed it to a section. What do you think of this alternative? WereSpielChequers 19:00, 19 March 2009 (UTC)

That works.--Unionhawk (talk) 20:13, 19 March 2009 (UTC)

Welcome to WikiProject Ohio!

Speedy deletion of Mark Burger

 
A tag has been placed on Mark Burger requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for biographies.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you. Radiant chains (talk) 02:50, 22 March 2009 (UTC)

Let the record show that this deletion request was withdrawn, and the article improved.--Unionhawk (talk) 12:20, 24 March 2009 (UTC)

DYK

Hi Unionhawk, thanks for your interest in contributing to WP:Did you know! I just wanted to let you know that this article that you rejected for being too old actually does meet our criteria; DYK accepts not only articles created within the past five days, but articles expanded more than fivefold within the past five days (the reasoning is that an article expanded this much is basically a new article). This article was expanded from a single sentence to several paragraphs within the last couple days, so it qualifies. For more information, you can look at the DYK rules or Art LaPella's unofficial guide to DYK. Best, rʨanaɢ talk/contribs 17:56, 23 March 2009 (UTC)

Oh... Thanks for the clarification...--Unionhawk (talk) 18:00, 23 March 2009 (UTC)
