Editing Tips & Tricks
I've noticed you've been making a lot of minor edits on the same page recently. While it is perfectly acceptable to improve how a page looks, please try to reduce the amount of edits it takes to get there. Here are a few tips that can help with that:
 * Use the "Show Preview" button! This is one of the first things experienced editors do after they finish typing out their content (or revising pre-existing content). This allows them to see what the page looks like before they actually save it. If they don't like how something looks, they can change it and preview again, and nobody but them will know.
 * Have an idea of what you are going to type before you actually begin typing it. That way, it won't take multiple edits to complete one section of a guide.
 * Read the Guide and our policies. If you are confused about something, feel free to ask us.

Thank you, and I hope you continue to contribute to StrategyWiki! --Ryan SchmidtTalk - Contribs 15:35, 24 April 2007 (CDT)


 * Also, if you could please add the Header Nav to each new guide page you create by putting   on the very top of the page, I would very much so appreciate it! --Ryan SchmidtTalk - Contribs 17:30, 15 May 2007 (CDT)
 * If you accidentally upload the wrong image, rather than uploading to a new name, just upload over the old image. Also, please remember to follow the categorization guidelines. -- Prod (Talk) 16:42, 1 June 2007 (CDT)

Your Image
Hi, you might not know this but this image is actually a .bmp, not a .png, this will mean that you will have trouble linking to it. Do you mind if I upload a .png version of it?--Rocky http://media.strategywiki.org/images/thumb/7/78/Rally-X_Rock.png/25px-Rally-X_Rock.png (Talk - Contributions) 14:24, 5 June 2007 (CDT)

Please sign your posts!
If you don't, it makes it difficult to know who said what. Thanks. --Notmyhandle (talk • contribs) 17:14, 5 June 2007 (CDT)

Your recent upload
What is the point of Image:Gamecube-Control-Neutral-Left or Right.png? I see no places where it would be particularly useful, especially since I have no idea what it is trying to represent. --SkizzerzTalk - Contribs 15:27, 7 June 2007 (CDT)
 * I'd recommend a picture of a green shell with an arrow in front of and behind it, as it represents what it means a bit more. Also, you could just say that it can be thrown both ways in text with no image required. The button templates are really for widespread use of the images, across multiples of guides not in the same series. I'll try to find an image like that online (or doctor one myself) for you to see what you think of it. --SkizzerzTalk - Contribs 15:37, 7 June 2007 (CDT)


 * How about [[Image:Mariokart_throwbothways.png]]? --SkizzerzTalk - Contribs 16:21, 7 June 2007 (CDT)

All Game Nav deprecated
All Game Nav has been replaced with Header Nav (same template, just a better name), so please use Header Nav instead of All Game Nav. Also, the backpage, backname, and customback parameters on Footer Nav have been replaced with prevpage, prevname, and customprev respectively. While AGN and the backs still work, we are trying to discontinue their use (see the discussion). Thanks (and I'm glad you liked the image). --SkizzerzTalk - Contribs 15:41, 8 June 2007 (CDT)

Unreleased information
Hey, thanks for your help with the Mario Kart Wii guide. When adding unreleased information, try not to jump a step ahead and add empty or unknown sections like the TBA stuff. Until a name is released, just don't worry about it. Also, there's no need to add to such a section as well - think of it like this: the stub promotes people to help add information, but on a section for a thing that doesn't exist, such information doesn't exist, thus it's not possible to add information and thus we don't need to use the stub template. More importantly, we don't need the section at all (as I said before). Thanks, but just be patient! I'll help you as much as I can. --Notmyhandle (talk • contribs) 15:59, 25 July 2007 (CDT)
