[edit] "Your" Thunderdome versus "my" Thunderdome
"My" Thunderdome's offical Alexa rank - 7,073 "My" Thunderdome's official athletics Alexa rank - 1,427
I can't find anything about "your" Thunderdome

- Sorry, I'm a little confused by what you mean. I wanted to create a disambig page for Thunderdome because there was about 4 different pages. Also, it seems like the stuff about the communal house Thunderdome got edited over, but a new page wasn't created for that subject, so that information got lost in the history page. I decided to move Thunderdome to Thunderdome (arena), then created a disambig page at Thunderdome, and then created Thunderdome (communal) where the info about the communal house went.
- Because I wasn't sure if I did all the moving around correctly, I asked on the help page. [1] --Rc251 06:06, 18 August 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Editting help
I noticed you question on the Help desk and thought you might like some eidtting tips:
- You can make a numbered list in Wikipedia by using "#", eg:
- Yada
- Yado
- Yadi
- Also, when you want to link to an article in Wikipedia, you just put the title in "[[ ]]". For example, "http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thunderdome" can be done by [[Thunderdome]], which looks like: Thunderdome.
- When there is just one notable article, like the Thunderdome arena, it gets to go to Thunderdome, and if a disambiguation page is neccessary, it will go to Thunderdome (disambiguation). I have made the changes. Good luck! --Commander Keane 07:37, August 18, 2005 (UTC)
- Thanks for all the help! Looks like it's all fixed up now, that's great :) --Rc251 07:44, 18 August 2005 (UTC)
[edit] I wouldn't mind
If you were to recreate your article, leaving Thunderdome for the arena. However, it's been deleted twice so I don't know if it can thrive... --fpo 02:25, August 20, 2005 (UTC)
- Actually, that wasn't my article. I found it in an old revision and just copy+pasted it to a new article because I had thought it was accidentally written over. I actually have no clue what the communal Thunderdome is, and looking over the article, it's probably a good idea that it was deleted. --Rc251 04:33, 20 August 2005 (UTC)
