Thank You!!

I just wanted so say Thank you to everyone who helped me get this figured out! Naoroji , Ariyen , Venom20 , Infinite - talk

Hai

So, what the hell are you doing? :P --Naoroji 19:25, 25 July 2010 (UTC)

Hello, I noticed that you are doing lots of editing. You should use the preview button to see changes before they are saved. If you keep hitting save, you spam the Recent changes. Venom20 21:36, 25 July 2010 (UTC)

Oh I have been saving, been trying to get my character box out of the "About Me" box, however I am not having any luck. With the way the Layout page is setup you cannot tell that the Box would be re-adjusted unless you save it :S sorry for the spam :( Sakora 21:39, 25 July 2010 (UTC)

Err

I am so lost lol, making some sence of stuff but not much :(

Sooo, how about you calm down and try to tell me what you're trying to do :P. I see you're trying to steal my userpage design? :P Need some help? --Naoroji 19:28, 25 July 2010 (UTC)

I enjoy the design but perhaps I should have tempted something easier first. Trying to figure out how to link the pages, and make new pages... and pray that I'm not making a huge mess of things! Sakora 19:31, 25 July 2010 (UTC)

Just use the colons to let the text fall in more, btw. Makes it easier to see who you're responding to :) And, like you've already found out, use four tildes or the sign button to sign your comments :P. But ehm, should I have a go at your page and try to make it work? ;) Just give me ten minutes and it'll work :P --Naoroji 19:33, 25 July 2010 (UTC)

well it was working alright a few moments ago, have to get the layout page setup and rest of the pages added still... I should have just stole all of your stuff then changed it after instead of changing as I go! Sakora 19:37, 25 July 2010 (UTC)

Are you sure? Well,... Have fun xD. If you've had enough, just let me know and I'll fix it all ;). --Naoroji 19:40, 25 July 2010 (UTC)

Its starting to come along :) I knew eventually it would work out just going to take some time to finish tweaking and get used to somewhat different coding. If I need any help I'll give you a shout! :) Sakora 19:43, 25 July 2010 (UTC)

Yep I was making a mess! Guess ill need some pages deleted, but I think I got it figured out now! Sakora 20:07, 25 July 2010 (UTC)

Your new pages

Please don't create 'em like that D: If they're pages for your userspace, they should be named 'User:Sakora/{insert name of page}', but you're putting them into the MAINSPACE, where all GW2 articles are supposed to be! D: --Naoroji 20:41, 25 July 2010 (UTC)

Which is what I thought I had done, (created it in my userspace) I was just about to ask you how can I find them to make sure that I am creating them in the correct area? Is there a way to directly see what files i have created under my userspace, and How can I make sure that I am creating them in the user space... Is there any other way to create a page aside from typing in a new directory in the address bar? I feel like such a noob :S Sakora 20:46, 25 July 2010 (UTC)

The most recent ones I was just following the links that get put out from the User:Sakora/Templates/userpage:/layout which ended up being in User:Sakora/Template/Userpage:Characters ‎

(Edit conflict) These are all the pages you have in your userspace:

• Sakora/Template/Userpage:About

Sakora/Template/Userpage:Characters

Sakora/Template/Userpage:GW2

Sakora/Template/Userpage:Userbox

Sakora/Template/Userpage:spec

Sakora/Templates

Sakora/Templates/Userpage:Layout

Sakora/Templates/Userpage:Layout2

Sakora/Templates/Userpage:Navigation

You can make new pages by typing in the name for them into the search bar or like you're doing it; into the address bar :). Just make sure to always prefix them with User:Sakora/, because if you don't and just create 'Hi' instead of 'User:Sakora/Hi', it'll be a page that everyone can find, in the mainspace, where it's not supposed to be D: --Naoroji 20:50, 25 July 2010 (UTC)

I would like to add, that the show preview button next to the save page button is a wonderful tool. It lets you mess with things without filling up the RC.--Corsair@Yarrr 21:47, 25 July 2010 (UTC)

heh, I just wrote that 2 sections up ;) Venom20 21:52, 25 July 2010 (UTC)

Curious, but do you want your character box in with your about me box?... Ariyen 21:52, 25 July 2010 (UTC)

Nope I want the Character Box outside of the table on the right opposite to the userbox on the left side, and I cant seem to get it figured out on how to move it :( So sorry for all the spam Sakora 21:55, 25 July 2010 (UTC)

Ah, okay. May I try something? Ariyen 22:01, 25 July 2010 (UTC)

Ariyen is so polite, I went ahead and tried something without asking. I apologize. I moved the character box to the left, then realized you wanted it on the right. So I reversed the changes. I'll let Aryien handle it, she's better at it than me anyways ;). Venom20 22:04, 25 July 2010 (UTC)

First thing is first lol gotta do __Notoc__ to the About me page and characters to get rid of the contents... and something in that about me page that I think I could help fix... to help get the characters on the right side... which means I'd like permission to at least try editing three pages... Ariyen 22:08, 25 July 2010 (UTC)

By all means feel free to fix it! That way I wont end up spamming RC. Sakora 22:30, 25 July 2010 (UTC)

.*Sneaks in* Dont worry about feeling terrible or like a nub, we all have gone through it and we will all help if you need it :P--Neil • 23:26, 25 July 2010 (UTC)

You have a broken code that I'm trying to find and fix... Ariyen 23:46, 25 July 2010 (UTC)

There... that better? Ariyen 23:53, 25 July 2010 (UTC)

Yes Thank you very much Ariyen! I guess my old html/css skills are quite rusty. The only question is, is it possible to get the Characters level with the rest of the Userbox and About me section? Sakora 23:55, 25 July 2010 (UTC)

To go to the top? Can try. There. That should fix it. Is that what you wanted? Ariyen 00:01, 26 July 2010 (UTC)

Thank you so very much!! That is perfect! Sakora 00:02, 26 July 2010 (UTC)

For excess about me pages that you don't use... you can do {{delete|u1}} to them or any other page you want removed. :-) u1 stands for User requested, I believe. Ariyen 00:05, 26 July 2010 (UTC)

RC spam better be worth it in the end. ;) - Infinite - talk 00:06, 26 July 2010 (UTC)

Erm -> User:Sakora/Template/Userpage:About that one is in use... That you did the delete to. :-) Ariyen 00:09, 26 July 2010 (UTC)

Talk Page

May I add your nav page to here? Ariyen 00:13, 26 July 2010 (UTC)

For sure :) feel free to help as you like, anything is usefull to me at this point. Eventually I'll get the hang of it. Sakora 00:14, 26 July 2010 (UTC)

It takes practice. X-) Ariyen 00:16, 26 July 2010 (UTC)

Could you please

Set your edits to minor in your preferences? Special:Preferences (Click Editing, check "Mark all edits minor by default"). Thank you. =] - Infinite - talk 00:17, 26 July 2010 (UTC)

Thank you for letting me know how to do that too, I was wondering if there was an option to hide things as a minor edit Sakora 00:19, 26 July 2010 (UTC)

You're welcome, now it's easier to filter your edits from the other ones. ;] - Infinite - talk 00:21, 26 July 2010 (UTC)

Preview

I know that this has already been mentioned. But when you make a change to a page, whether it be an entire paragraph being added or a character change, you should always hit the preview button beside save page to view what you have changed. Once you are satisfied with the, then press save page. Also, the user page looks great, keep up the good work :D Venom20 01:04, 26 July 2010 (UTC)

Yeah I have been using the preview button, but trying to get the boxes the correct size inside the actual layout is difficult to do without being able to see them all together. Its great where its at now :), all the hard work is done the rest of the stuff will be easy! Sakora 01:09, 26 July 2010 (UTC)

Try 100% on your about me without the px. :-) Ariyen 04:27, 26 July 2010 (UTC)

Sorry!

Sorry for the spam, just getting the pages cleaned up to be deleted! Sakora 14:57, 27 July 2010 (UTC)

Question

Is this still required? It's currently a broken redirect and an empty page other than that. - Infinite - talk 21:14, 23 January 2011 (UTC)
