- I will always reply at this location rather than on your talk page. This keeps discussions together and makes them easier to follow and refer to in the future. Any user talk pages to which I add a message will be watched and I will reply at that location.
- New editors: To begin a new topic, please click the + tab to start a new section and sign your post with four tildes (~~~~) or click from the edit toolbar.
- If you need to return to an archived topic, just start a new message as normal and I will usually add a link to the archived section.
[edit] You're right
Man, I sorry but i just start and i want to expand the racing career of several drivers and don't look too much on the rules and the gramar.
Oh, by the way, I just create the page for Racing Engineering and I would like your opinion. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Cdelpi (talk • contribs) 20:54, 6 March 2008 (UTC)
- Please make sure that you sign comments on talk pages; along with edit summaries, signing comments is another important thing that editors are expected to do. I have to be honest and point out that your level of English may not be quite at where it really needs to be in order to edit the English Wikipedia effectively; that is something that you will need to work on, I think. Do you contribute to the Portuguese Wikipedia as well? So far, all your edits have needed to be amended in some way, which makes extra work for other editors. You will need to get to grips with all the major policies, guidelines, and style manuals; they are very important to the running of the encyclopædia and well-prepared editors always write good articles that need little or no attention from others. Your first attempt at Racing Engineering showed that you had not done any preparatory reading before creating the article. Adrian M. H. 21:54, 6 March 2008 (UTC)
[edit] WP:MOTOR spam box
I added the spamming box to my userpage, but your code didn't work. I just added it as an image. See the bottom of my userpage. You have my permission to mess with my userpage if you want to play with it. Royalbroil 20:14, 8 March 2008 (UTC)
- I had a go and it seems fine now. Let me know if it causes any issues. Cheers, Royalbroil. Adrian M. H. 22:52, 8 March 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Motorsports Portal
Alan Kulwicki just passed as a Good Article. There's finally a GA on a NASCAR driver. Can it be added to the Motorsports Portal? There is no free use image of his (yet!), but there is an image of his driver's and owner's championship trophies. Royalbroil 20:32, 2 April 2008 (UTC)
- Of course! Bung it straight in or drop me another message if you'd like me to add it. Adrian M. H. 21:37, 2 April 2008 (UTC)
- I didn't because I didn't know how the portal works. Should it replace another (which one?) or should it be a new one? Here's what I did for the Wisconsin portal. Royalbroil 23:25, 2 April 2008 (UTC)
- We can add it as a new page, using the same code as existing sub-pages, with a new number in the title, and then just update the corresponding figure (number of pages) in the relevant part of the code on the main page. I'll create the page shortly and make the necessary edit to the main page code. Adrian M. H. 23:35, 2 April 2008 (UTC)
- OK, that's done, pretty much. It's at Portal:Motorsport/Selected biography/10. It's a bit shorter than most of the other selected bio snippets, so if you are up for selecting and adding a few more bits of important info to the pasted lede section, that would be useful. I have provisionally added a pic of one of his cars. Adrian M. H. 23:49, 2 April 2008 (UTC)
