[edit]Hello S Sepp,
Thank you for your help with the Biography page. There is another link to the 'By Name' that needs to be amended, but I do not know how to do it. If you open the 'By People' page, you will see an infobox on the right hand side. The link to 'By Name' no longer works. Are you able to fix this?
Many thanks

- Hello, I was able to fix it. I'll tell you how, so you can learn. The box on the right of the page is a transcluded template. If you click on edit on that page, at the top you will see {{Lists of people}}. This is the code that puts the template on the page. You can then edit the template by typing 'template:lists of people' in the search box and clicking on 'go'.
- I would also like to say: Welcome to wikipedia :). I consider myself a wikignome, though not exclusively. If you have questions you can always ask me. ssepp(talk) 19:45, 28 May 2007 (UTC)
- Wikipedia is a very large place and it can be a bit overwhelming. You don't need to be a technical person to be able to help, things aren't usually that difficult, but it might take some getting used to. You can reply without starting a new header by writing the reply under your last message and starting the paragraph with a colon (:), this will move the paragraph to the right, like this one! ssepp(talk) 20:05, 28 May 2007 (UTC)
- Well, I am certainly learning new things all the time! Thanks again for your patience, I won't trouble you any further tonight :-) MaryLou71 20:09, 28 May 2007 (UTC)
