Hello Karlcsr! Welcome to StrategyWiki. Thank you for your contributions.

On the other hand, if you have ideas for StrategyWiki, bring them up on the community portal talk page. Please remember to sign your name on, and only on, talk pages by clicking or using four tildes (    ); this will automatically produce your name and the date. Finally, please do your best to always fill in the edit summary field as this helps to document all of your hard work. Feel free to delete this message from your talk page if you like, or keep it for reference. Happy editing! -- Baejung92 00:26, 25 August 2007 (CDT)

Contributions
I've looked at your edits, and they seem to have some problems. First of all, there is no need to put your name on a page; the page's history will record your contributions automatically. Also, please remember to keep a neutral point of view (i.e. no usage of the words "I" or "we") in your writing. Finally, I don't believe using swear words would be very appropriate for the site. Remember to follow these guidelines, and thanks for your contributions! Baejung92 01:38, 25 August 2007 (CDT)
 * Once again, a reminder: please remember to refrain from using the word "I". I've gone ahead and reworded parts of the Chinese Level 7 (not well, admittedly), just as an example. If you don't like it, feel free to rewrite it yourself, just don't go back to using "I". Thanks, and happy editing! Baejung92 13:50, 26 August 2007 (CDT)
 * Backing up what Baejung92 said, please do not write guides in a first person perspective. It's not exactly professional. Also on another note, please capitalize nouns and the names of things. I have gone through along with Baejung and corrected most of your mistakes, but please in the future remember to capitalize. One last thing of concern, rather than putting certain words into all caps, just bold them. It looks much cleaner. Cheers. Lunar Knight (Talk to me + Contribs) 15:21, 26 August 2007 (CDT)

C&C: Generals
You're very welcome! About the talk page thing, new messages are supposed to be added to the bottom of the page, but it's no big deal. The easiest way to do this is to click on the "+" button right next to the Edit button on the top. Also, at the end of a comment type four tildes ( "~" ), which will automatically produce your name and the time/date that you left the comment.

OK, now about the actual guide. From the Table of Contents, click on the Campaign 1: China link. You'll see four template buttons to get you started on a guide. Click on "Guide page" to create the page. Then, cut and paste the Chinese mission information you have on the Walkthrough page right now onto the newly created page, and save it. Do the same for the GLA levels, except you should change the "===" s for the level names to "==" headings. Then, delete the content on the current Walkthrough page, and add some basic introduction (something like this) instead. I hope this helped, and if you have any other questions, don't hesitate to ask! Baejung92 17:21, 27 August 2007 (CDT)
 * Sorry, I forgot something. After you've pasted over the material, you must fill in the Footer Nav so people can navigate the guide easily. You do this by scrolling to the bottom of the edit space, where you'll see a line that says: . Right next to "prevpage=", type in the name of the page that you want to come right before the current page (since China is Campaign 1, the prevpage for that can just be left blank), and right next to "nextpage=", type in the name of the page that comes right after. I've done the China one as an example. Baejung92 19:13, 27 August 2007 (CDT)
 * Thanks for the contributions Karl. Remember that when posting messages on talk pages or community portals, please sign your posts as Baejung has suggested above (using ~ ).  That's how we get ours to link to our pages.  Please do this from now on to help make it easier to reply to messages and track who said what.  Peace!  -- 21:14, 27 August 2007 (CDT)

Test Edits
I'm glad to see you're learning and experimenting. I'm going to revert your edits to my talk page, since it's nothing I need to preserve, but for future reference most wikis and StrategyWiki promote the use of sandboxes for experimentation. There's the official sandbox and then you can also use User:Karlcsr/Sandbox if you like. Go ahead and play around if need be! Keep it up, we sysops are here if you need help. -- 00:41, 28 August 2007 (CDT)
