I have added some features to Wikipedia articles in my edits such as those below:
Another Tip of the moment...
The syntax used for displaying an image is:
Only [[Image:{name}]] is required. The other details are optional and can be placed in any order. They are:
If you have a picture that isn't already in Wikipedia's image collection that you want to include in an article, you will need to upload it first. Read more (includes examples): Image link syntax

[edit] Music Samples
- John Mellencamp "Our Country" (file info) — play in browser (beta)
- Sample from John Mellencamp's "Our Country". From the album Freedom's Road.
- Problems listening to the file? See media help.
For the music samples I use the free-for-a-while MP3 Magic 2.0 from the great Applian Technologies. You get 7 days to test it out, and only $10 to buy. (Their suite of apps is sweet because it is the best to record intenet radio.) MP3 Magic lets you create 30 second clips that conform to Wikipedia's rules for length. You then use the free, open source Wikipedia application called Audacity to convert your clips to .OGG format for Wikipedia. Select Edit, Preferences, File Format tab, set OGG Export Setup to "0" to create reduced-quality 64 kbps .OGG versions of your clips.
and multiple music samples with images:
- Kenny G - End of The Night.ogg (file info) — play in browser (beta)
- Sample from Kenny G's "End of The Night". From the album Breathless.
- Problems listening to the file? See media help.
- Kenny G - The Joy of Life (file info) — play in browser (beta)
- Sample from Kenny G's "The Joy of Life". From the album Breathless.

- Main article: Super Session album - one of my favorite blues works. Have a listen in your browser in your PJs!
“ | To the best of my knowledge, based on an unnamed source, the new head of SONY/BMG shut down the 5.1 SACD department and let everyone go. A year and a half ago I remixed Super Session and Child Is Father To The Man for them in 5.1 SACD. They both came out incredible and so I mastered them with Bob Ludwig.Now it seems they will languish on the shelves under the current administration of SONY/BMG.,........Typical, in soooo many ways."

[edit] Creating "Notes" and references
Creating a References table in Wikipedia is almost as easy as creating a link. Look at the code at the top of the song lyrics sample table to see how to use the paired ref tag, e.g.,
-
- <ref>[http://www.H2G2.com The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy]</ref>
to create the citation[3]. Then add a section near the bottom of the article containing the single,unpaired references tag. You will see that at the bottom of this article in edit mode.
[edit] Reusing Notes
Just include the "name" parameter in the ref tag (and don't leave it empty when you reuse it):
-
- <ref name="Brainyquote">[http://www.brainyquote.com/quotes/authors/l/langston_hughes.html Brainyquote.com] - Langston Hughes</ref>
“ | Hold fast to dreams, for if dreams die, life is a broken winged bird that cannot fly.[4] |

“ | I swear to the Lord, I still can't see, |

Richie Havens uses open D tuning on the guitar. By fretting all strings it produces a major chord on any position on the neck of the guitar.[6]

[edit] Tips of the Day
Especially on talk pages, and sometimes in External link sections, links to Google searches can be useful. The Wikimedia software that powers Wikipedia lets you make links to Google by including google: as the prefix for the link, like this:
- [[google:Tipster]].
Which looks like this:
Note: It is important not to use spaces in the search. To add more parameters to the search, separate them by a plus sign, +. For a phrase search, use a hyphen (minus sign), -, between each word. E.g. to search for "Tip of the day", use Tip-of-the-day.
To provide a link to a Wikipedia-specific search, include in the google-link +site:en.wikipedia.org (no spaces before or after), like this:
- [[google:Tip-of-the-day+site:en.wikipedia.org]].
Which looks like this:
To clean up the link so that only the part you want to show is presented, use the pipe, like this:
- [[google:Tipster+site:en.wikipedia.org|"Tip of the day"]]
Which makes it look like this:
Many of the pages in the Wikipedia namespace have specialized redirects called "shortcuts" that can be entered into the search box on the left side of your screen. Normally these shortcuts start with WP: and then a capitablized abreviation for the page name. Some common shortcuts are: WP:, WP:DEPT, WP:FAQ, WP:FUN, WP:IMAGE, WP:VP, and of course, WP:TIP. A semi-complete list of shortcuts is available at Wikipedia:Shortcuts.
