If you need help, please see our help pages, and if you can't find what you are looking for there, please feel free to leave me a message on my discussion page. Happy editing!
I'm glad you're looking into adoption. I'd like to see you edit for about a month first, though. I'm of course available to answer any questions in the meantime. Xiner (talk, email) 01:56, 20 February 2007 (UTC)
The reason I'm hesitant
[edit]You've probably noticed that on my userpage is listed a large number of adoptees. The last thing I want to do is to provide less help for my students than I can, and so I need to slowly increase my numbers. You may want to look at Category:Wikipedians_seeking_to_adopt_in_Adopt-a-user if you're impatient, but like I said, I'll gladly answer any questions you may have.

- I'm really sorry. I'm going to put a "No more adoptions for a while" sign on my talk page now, which is something I should've done a while back. Sorry. Xiner (talk, email) 02:23, 20 February 2007 (UTC)
User page
[edit]Everything I've learned on Wikipedia, I've learned by shameless copying other people's code. Just press "edit this page" where you see something interesting, and copy it! Xiner (talk, email) 02:27, 20 February 2007 (UTC)
What do you need to learn?
[edit]Just tell me what you don't understand about Wikipedia and I'll inform you. Oh, and putting an article on your watchlist means that you'll be notified whenever the page is edited. For instance, I have the Linkin Park article on my watchlist. Whenever someone edits it, it appears in bold on my watchlist. Hello2112 23:52, 20 February 2007 (UTC)
Userboxes
[edit]Hi. You asked a question about the userboxes I'm making. If you're trying to find out how to make userboxes yourself, see This page. That's how I learned how to make them. I've only designed one so far, but all you need to do is follow the instructions on that page, if you can read the. If you have more questions, you can ask. Thanks.

- Hi. Glad to see you're tryng to create userboxes. You create them, not with a wikitable, but by following the instructions on the link I sent you. If you want to see the source code for the boxes I've made, click [edit] at the section that says "self-created userboxes" (but don't change anthing on my userpage), and copy the code (but don't save), go to your userpage, and you can experiment there. You can change some things around (on your userpage or sandbox), and hopefully you'll be able to make a userbox yourself. Hope this helps.

Signing your messages

Tasteful links
[edit]- Well I guess that was a bit misleading. Wikipedia is not censored for minors, so even if you felt the need to plaster your userspace with links to (or images containing) pornographic or otherwise "socially unacceptable" material, I doubt there would be any severe repercussions. Maybe there's some information at WP:EL that could help you. Otherwise, Be Bold! Let me know if theres anything else you need — Deon555talkdesksign here! 03:04, 23 February 2007 (UTC)

Help
[edit]Wll, you don't seem to need any help using Wikipedia anymore, soI'm going to reopen my Adopting userbox. If you ever need to know about something, post it on my talk page and I'll see what I can do. Hello2112 00:18, 2 March 2007 (UTC)
