Welcome[edit]

Hi, Furito. This is NOT some automated message...it's from a real person. You can talk to me right now. Welcome to Wikipedia! I noticed you've just joined, and wanted to give you a few tips to get you started. If you have any questions, please talk to us. The tips below should help you to get started. Best of luck! Chzz ► 14:02, 12 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

You don't need to read anything - anybody can edit; just go to an article and edit it. Be Bold, but please don't put silly stuff in - it will be removed very quickly, and will annoy people.

Ask for help. Talk to us live, or edit this page, put {{helpme}} and describe what help you need. Someone will reply very quickly - usually within a few minutes.

Play in your user area. For example, create User:Furito/test.

Edit existing articles, before you make your own. Look at some subjects that you know about, and see if you can make them a bit better. For example, Wikipedia:Cleanup#2009.

When you're ready, read about Your first article. It should be about something well-known, and it will need references.

Good luck with editing; please drop me a line some time on my own talk page.

There's lots of information below. Once again, welcome to the fantastic world of Wikipedia!

I am looking for help![edit]

Hi.

I wonder how you connect two articles that's in two different languages but about the same thing. So that you can press for example the "english" link on the bottom to the left on the page.

The two articles thats about the same thing I'm talking about is:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jj_(band) http://sv.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jj

Thank you.

Hey Furito, Welcome to Wikipedia. Firstly, ensure that they are definitely the same subject. sv:Jj looks like it could be a disambiguation page. If you're certain they are the same topic, just add this at the bottom of the page: sv:Jj. The link should appear on the left hand side after you click Save page. Also, when editing a talk page, try to sign your posts using four tildes like this: ~~~~. Have a good day :) — Deon555^talk_{I'm BACK!} 14:40, 12 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

(edit conflict; I was adding the link whilst Deon typed the above!)

Hi.

When you write on talk pages (like here), please "sign" your messages by putting ~~~~ at the end, to add your username and the date/time.

To add a link to another Wiki, you put code such as [[sv:Jj]] right at the end of the article. I have added this to Jj for you, and it is now working. Cheers, Chzz ► 14:44, 12 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

{{helpme}} Hi. I want to edit the Templete for jj. You can find it for example at the bottom of the Jj_(band) page. But when I hit "edit template", I come to the templete for the band XX. I have no idea why. Please help.

--Furito (talk) 19:06, 22 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Jj had an incorrect name in its code. I believe the user who created the template copied it and pasted it from Template:Xx without changing all the correct parameters. I have fixed it, so now you can view and edit the template by clicking the links on the box at the bottom of pages that have it. Please let me know if there are any more questions. Thanks! --Mysdaao ^talk 19:27, 22 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. I just created an whole new article named kills (album). I accidently named it kills with only lowercases and now that's how the article is displayed. Will this be edited automatically from kills to Kills? If no, how do i fix it? I tried to Move the article from kills to killls then back to Kills but it didn't work. Still only lowercases. Can someone help? I don't have to delete it and creat a new one do I? By the way, I've only started on the article so it tiny but the lowercases in the title annoys me.

Thank you!

Hi Furito.. I remember helping you months and months ago - last year in fact, above! Have a look at Kills (album) with the uppercase - is this your article? First letters are generally automatically capitalised by the software :) Have fun. — Deon ^talk 00:19, 21 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

(e/c) It's actually not possible with the current software to create an article with a lowercase title. Accordingly, a kludge was created where even though a title remains at a capitalized name, you can add the template {{lowercase}} to it to make the title display in the article as lowercase (see, e.g., Ebay). I assume you used another article's text as an example when you created Kill (album), which contained the lowercase template. I simply remove it here. Cheers.--Fuhghettaboutit (talk) 00:24, 21 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Lower case[edit]

I believe that the band is called "jj" and not "Jj"? Wikipedia normally capitalizes the first letter in article titles, but I have added the special code {{lowercase}} to the very top of the article, so that it shows the title as "jj". I hope that this is helpful. Chzz ► 14:46, 12 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you very much. It's much better. But do you know how to do the same thing on the swedish page? http://sv.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jj

I tried the same code but it didn't work. Maybe you know what the swedish code for lowercase is?

Thank you.

Furito (talk) 15:11, 12 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Furito, The language code for swedish Wikipedia is 'sv'. Add [[sv:Jj]] to the bottom of the article. — Deon555^talk_{I'm BACK!} 15:17, 12 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Oh do you mean adding the link back to this Wikipedia from the Swedish one? Use [[en:Jj_(band)]] — Deon555^talk_{I'm BACK!} 15:18, 12 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

No I mean how do you fix so the articles name starts with a lower case? In english the code was {{lowercase}} in the beginning of the article.

But how do you do the same thing on the swedish page? {{lowercase}} didn't work.

Thank you.

Well, each wiki works in its own way; on English Wikipedia, we have written that template to allow articles such as iPod. I don't speak Swedish, but I will take a look and see if there is anything I can do; I'll reply here soon. Chzz ► 16:02, 12 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hi.

I found the code: {{DISPLAYTITLE:jj}} in the iMac page. It worked. Can I us it or is it wrong?

Somebody (you?) has fixed it; see this diff]. I was about to do the same myself. Cheers! Chzz ► 17:22, 12 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
