[[File:Wiki.png|thumb|Welcome!]] | |||
Welcome to our wiki, and thank you for your contributions! There's a lot to do around here, so I hope you'll stay with us and make many more improvements. | |||

:Visit the '''[[Special:Recentchanges|recent changes]]''' to see what other people are editing right this minute, and where you can help. | |||
:'''Questions?''' You can ask at the {{S|Forum|help desk}} or on the [[Help:Talk page|"discussion" page]] associated with each article, or post a message on [[User talk:Aidanzapunk|my talk page]]! | |||

== Section editing == | |||
If you wish to edit multiple sections of a page, click on the Edit tab on top and go from there, instead of editing each section one at a time. That way, you can consolidate them into one edit and you won't flood Recent Changes with section edits. Thanks!

== Interwiki Links == | |||
When linking to a page on another wiki, it would be best to use <nowiki>{{s|other wiki|page name}}</nowiki> instead of <nowiki>[[other wiki:page name|text to show]]</nowiki>. There are some cases where the latter would be used, but if the text shown doesn't need to be changed, then you would use the template. I will apply that to over [[List of SSB4 trophies (Super Mario Bros. series)|here]], but I figured I'd tell you an easier way ahead of time.

== Uploading images == | |||
When uploading an image, you shouldn't necessarily add it to every remotely related page. Sometimes a page doesn't need more images. [[User:Miles of SmashWiki|<font color="dodgerblue"><span style="font-family:Comic Sans MS;">'''Miles''']] <font color="silver">([[User talk:Miles of SmashWiki|<font color="silver">talk]])</font></font></span></font> 11:56, 5 August 2015 (EDT) | |||

I appreciate that you're a good faith editor, but this is getting frustrating. This is like the seventh or eighth time I've seen you do this, where you upload a questionably-useful image and put it on every single page that has anything to do with it. Please make more of an effort to consider whether a page really needs more or different images before uploading. A lot of the time they don't. [[User:Miles of SmashWiki|<font color="dodgerblue"><span style="font-family:Comic Sans MS;">'''Miles''']] <font color="silver">([[User talk:Miles of SmashWiki|<font color="silver">talk]])</font></font></span></font> 19:24, 6 October 2015 (EDT) | |||
:I hate to pester you on this subject, but I'm afraid I have to say this as a warning this time. You don't need to upload so many pictures of the same thing, or re-upload over your own image repeatedly, or re-upload a deleted picture. More pictures is not always a good thing. Please exercise a bit more restraint in your uploading and usage of images, and keep it to what's needed. If you want to help with pictures, try to focus on [[:Category:Articles in need of images|articles]] [[:Category:Low-quality images|that need them]].

Revision as of 10:39, June 1, 2016
Hi there!
Welcome to our wiki, and thank you for your contributions! There's a lot to do around here, so I hope you'll stay with us and make many more improvements.
- Read this first as it provides many great resources designed to help users get oriented with the wiki and become part of the community.
- Visit the recent changes to see what other people are editing right this minute, and where you can help.
- Questions? You can ask at the help desk or on the "discussion" page associated with each article, or post a message on my talk page!
- Need help? The community portal has an outline of the site, and pages to help you learn how to edit.
I'm really happy to have you here, and look forward to working with you!

Section editing
If you wish to edit multiple sections of a page, click on the Edit tab on top and go from there, instead of editing each section one at a time. That way, you can consolidate them into one edit and you won't flood Recent Changes with section edits. Thanks! Berrenta (talk) 14:29, 5 February 2015 (EST)
Interwiki Links
When linking to a page on another wiki, it would be best to use {{s|other wiki|page name}} instead of [[other wiki:page name|text to show]]. There are some cases where the latter would be used, but if the text shown doesn't need to be changed, then you would use the template. I will apply that to over here, but I figured I'd tell you an easier way ahead of time. Aidan the Aura Master 09:41, 9 February 2015 (EST)
