| Hey Hi Booky. Am very happy to join the site and am interested in writing articles. I wrote an article on "How to seduce a teacher" but I don't think the article is in my name because I was not a member by then. Now that I have joined the site can I do something to put my name under the article as the author? | |

Thanks. Yup, I've blocked them. By the way, do you know of our new admin notice board that Eric so kindly put up for us? You can post block requests and other information for admins in the same location! No need to see who is online and message us each individually.  |

Thank you Booky, I appreciate the welcome. I'm writing a how to on the Winter Sowing Method, a technique for germinating seeds naturally with little or no cost. Much of my referencing (out links) will be to WinterSown.Org, my website. It is a partner site of the USDA National Agricultural Library AgNIC Alliance. We offer quality agricultural information for Fair Use purposes. Trudi Davidoff, Pres. WinterSown Educational |

In case you were confused, you can add an external hyperlink using single brackets, or [ ]s. Make sure to include the full hyperlink with http included. Example: [http://www.google.com Google] gives you Google. You can use double brackets, or [[ ]]s, to add an internal hyperlink. Example: [[User_talk:Myrmidon101|Rob's talk page]] gives you Rob's talk page. |

| No, I mean like how to make the bullet points and new steps. I've gathered that new steps are a # symbol and bullets are *s, but how to add images, link to another article in a sentance (such as if a step involved using marinara sauce and I wanted to link that to a howto for making marinara sauce without putting it as a related article), ect. | |

Did you message the wrong person or just didn't include a reference to what you're talking about in that message? As for your message, casual conversation is a far different beast that the written word.  And I have a quote for you, "Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother's eye and pay no attention to the plank in your own eye?". Do you know its origins? |

| Whoa, whoa, whoa, what's wrong with ♥Peanut♥ ?? I read the rules after you sent them to me, and I am abiding them all. I shouldn't have gotten that message that said my nickname was either rude or inflammatory, unnecessarily long or confusing, too similar to the username of an existing user, contains the @ character or non-Latin characters, might appear to confer admin status or is otherwise inappropriate. Nope, ♥Peanut♥ isn't rude, nor long/ confusing, nor too similar to the name of another user, nor contains @, nor non-latin charachters etc. Besides, when I made the account, it should have immediately given me that message and I would have gladly changed it. Now it's a bit too late, don't you think? | |

Hi, I made a "How to" article in Polish. It is How to learn English. It is not in english, so, I noticed that there is a catagory that is called "Not English" or something like that, so I was wondering, and you please move my article there?
