Hey

Just a heads up - don't use 'you' in articles, use 'the player' or something to that effect. Don't worry, you're not in trouble, it's just a friendly reminder. And the 'strategy' sections are unneeded. Sorry to sound so naggy, I just want to help you get on the right track, and believe me it can be really hard to figure out what to do at first! But welcome to the wiki, and if you ever need a hand, just leave me a message on my talk page. I'd give you my userbox, but all that's under construction at the moment! Got something to say?

It's best not to, because we are encyclopedic, so that means no strategy guides or anything like that. Oh, and remember to sign your comments by putting ~~~~ or ~~~ at the end. It makes it a lot easier to see who's written what. But only use it on talk pages. Got something to say? ThatPeskyKoopaling Look at all my edits!

Well, as I said, it's best not to, but if you can rework them into a good description of the gameplay, feel free to do that and put that under gameplay. Got something to say? ThatPeskyKoopaling Look at all my edits!

Basically, no strategy sections, but rewrite them as a description of what the game is. e.g. - Instead of 'in Super Mario Bros. don't jump on the spinies and don't get hit with Koopa shells', write something like 'in Super Mario Bros., some enemies, such as Spinies, will injure Mario if they are jumped on. Koopa Shells can also hit Mario if they bounce off pipes or walls'. Okay, that's a really bad example, but just try to make a strategy into a description. Also, if you're into writing strategies, may I recommend strategywiki.org/wiki, the Strategy Wiki.Got something to say? ThatPeskyKoopaling Look at all my edits!

Re: Question

First you have to make 10 edits, and you have to wait a week. Got something to say? ThatPeskyKoopaling Look at all my edits! 08:58, 9 July 2012 (EDT)

Yeah, it can be dull. But you've already made 10 edits, because it doesn't matter where you make them. A whole week can be a long time, but it's there to stop vandals or something. I think it's so people don't just join to make a userpage and never even make an edit to an actual article. But I'd recomment trying to get to grips with all this coding first, it saves a lot of hassle when it comes to Userpages. You can try things out in the sandbox. Got something to say?
