[edit] Replies about Hans Graf von Sponeck

Hi!

I don't think I understand what you mean by "stuck". It's true that the Wikimedia servers sometimes get laggy but everything should work eventually - be patient. If you are talking about the {{wikify}} template, it's in the first line of the article's code. Feel free to remove that line (put by me) when the article is wikified (currently it lacks wiki-links). Hope that answers your question. --Misza13 ^(Talk) 10:17, 9 October 2005 (UTC)

Why would you want to remove Wiki? Wiki is good. Wiki is the community. ;-) Seriously though, if by "Wiki" you mean the box which says "This article needs to be wikified..." then I have placed it there for a reason. If you've been around here on Wikipedia for some time you have undoubtedly noticed that articles here are written according to specific rules. While I admit that your article looks as well written (I am not talking about factual accuracy here) i.e. it is properly divided up into sections but lacks the wiki-links. Shortly: when some term appears in the article for the first time it should be made a link to an appropriate article of it's own.

Example: I have wikified the introduction to Hans Graf von Sponeck - when you edit that page, you'll see for yourself what I mean. After you (or anyone else) have done that with the rest of the article (remember: no more mentions of Dusseldorf, Germany, 1994 and so on need to be made as links) you can simply delete the first line (in the edit window) which says "{{wikify}}".

A good help to Wikipedia is here - you'll find good introductions to contributing to Wikipedia there including how to upload/insert pictures/photos into WP. But watch out that you don't violate copyright - we're very serious about it here. Oh, and one more thing...
