PLease be sure that all steps you alter begin with a verb.

Great changes to Enjoy a Boring Movie. I'll have to remember some of those.

Nice edits here. Great to see you making wikiHow better!

Hi Kalsikum,

Thanks for joining the wikiHow community. Since you're new, you might want to take the wikiHow tour to learn about how things work around here.

Please leave a message on my talk page, by clicking the link below, if I can help you with anything on wikiHow!

Hi, I have reverted the Stop Animation article to the one with the photos. It'd be helpful if you could explain why you want to remove the photo sequence.

Thanks! F

Thanks. The presence of the human hand is deliberate, as this step is a how-to do it, not how the end product should look. So the hand is actually there to help show a reader what they would be doing. Yes, the changes are very small but they are still perceptible and it is also to impart the reality of how much work this really involves.

Just my thoughts about this. Thanks for responding.

gawd no. thats too hard! actuallyy. you should search "add color to your wikihow talk page" on search and it tells you how to do it..

yahh! its super cool

Why take out the software directions?

Hi! Just wondering, but why did you choose to change some of the linkweaving -- such as linking to "animate clay"?

I'm on the FA team and I linkweave for all the featured articles, so that people can easily be lead to other parts of wikiHow related to the things that get mentioned in the articles.

I don't know what you mean exactly by "not required".

I rolled back your edits b/c it was such a large change (removing the software stuff) and b/c you removed some apparently good links (like "animate clay").

I also added some commented line breaks between the pictures so that it will be easier to evaluate any future changes. If you remove a Step, it's good to leave in a dummy line of some sort to make patrolling easier.

A lot of your edits look good, now that I've been able to isolate them better. The bold text, especially, is good, as are most of the text moves. I like the new wikilinks you added, too.

In the future, please make changes to FAs in smaller bites, since we watch those changes closely, and it's easier on us if there are fewer things to compare. It also allows you to use the Edit Summary more effectively to communicate what you did, and why. Finally, it lets us accept your good changes and reject others, rather than roll back all your hard work at once. For example, in one edit, you could have removed the software directions, and explained in the Edit Summary that the basics are already in the FA, with more detailed directions in a linked article. You could do the bolding in another save, and the added wikilinks in another.

Does that make sense?

Please do keep trying to improve it!!!

Some fantastic edits you made today. Really good to see you improving pages and formatting them better.

While I loved most of your edits, I didn't agree with all of the nominations you made on NFD and voted against some of them. For example, I failed to see how Making a Vodoo Doll was so irrationally dangerous that it needed deletion. We usually reserve NFD|dan for things like "driving blindfolded in heavy traffic". In addition, some of the articles you tagged with nfd|inc were really just stubs that need more time to develop. But these things take a while to learn. :) You are doing GREAT here and I'm so happy to see that you continue contributing here. Please, please continue!

Thanks again.

Hey! Well you did an awesome job with the images! I nominated the article for featuring, but it seems the instructions might not be clear enough yet. I started a topic in the forums asking people if they could understand the steps but most people seem to find them confusing still. Can you think of any way to make the instructions easier to understand, so that the article will have a better chance of being featured on the home page?

Your edit repeated information found elsewhere in the article.

Wow. Great images you are adding to the Tic Tac Toe article!

Hey, it's definitely coming along! Awesome!

Hey! Q&D is short for "quick and dirty". It's a method for merging two articles that simply redirects one title to another. You can read more about merging here: How to Merge Pages and Merge Page History. If you ever want to take a stab at it, you're welcome to! =)

I honestly don't believe you, but have it your way, if you really want. I think "ground" is the past tense and past participle of "grind". So do Wiktionary and Merriam Webster, but I suppose it is still possible that this is a regional matter, too.

Please leave the Aspberger's Syndrome the way I rolled it back. The last version by 88.xxx put in extra characters and did little to improve the article.

I am the original author and I do have a B.A. in english and have approximately 10 years writing experience as a reporter.

I do know how to write and have paid to do so.

thanks,

MA

Thanks! It's good to be back. I've got 4 loads of laundry to do, and a few kitty messes to pick up, but other than that, the holidays were excellent. How was your holiday?

Hi Kalsikum. Your rollback here was in good faith, so I don't see what MA is talking about. I apologize if there was any confusion.

Yea,I will go on writing how to burn PowerPoint to DVD Thank you so much

You are so warm here Thank you!

Hi, Since I have created two articles: Burn PowerPoint to DVD and Burn PowerPoint presentation to DVD I just want to write it later, do I need to delete them now and how can I delete articles that I have created Thank you ~

They are spoiling Wikihow

by the way, don't listen to Major B.O., he got really messed up by the nazis...or atleast thats what he told me...

I am guessing they sound similar because they are socks.....I will hope to be around a bit more in the near future....let me know if I can help with any of this.

Why don't the roots of a tree decompose?!

Simple Answer: Because God [Jehovah] created the tree this way ...it shows amazing intelligence on his part.

Thanks for all the hard work on RC patrol... nice job!

Thanks for your encouraging words! I appreciate it. :)

arg didn't work so here

yay!!!

Danke. It's hard to write an article on it, because it's so general. But it's also incredibly fun. Especially when it doesn't work, and breaks something.

Yeah, I've always enjoyed programming. That's why I recommended the Lego Mindstorms series. They usually simplify the programming enough that even young children can understand it.

I know :(

Join me in a song ...lol

Sing to "Our Country 'tis of thee"

God save our Nobel Queen. God Save our Richest Queen. God save our Queen.

I'm not english...

What did?

Full song...

God save our gracious Queen Long live our noble Queen, God save the Queen: Send her victorious, Happy and glorious, Long to reign over us: God save the Queen.

O Lord, our God, arise, Scatter thine enemies, And make them fall: Confound their politics, Frustrate their knavish tricks, On thee our hopes we fix: God save us all.

Thy choicest gifts in store, On her be pleased to pour; Long may she reign: May she defend our laws, And ever give us cause To sing with heart and voice God save the Queen.

I cant believe that someone actually looked at that. I don't know, either. My friend wrote it. Please don't destroy my life.

Why..?!

I didn't write it. My friend wrote it. As a joke, yes. But that would destroy my life!

I owe you an apology. I did not realize that my bad typing misspelled the name. I had my daughter, who is younger and with better vision check, and she said the word was spelled incorrectly. Once that was discovered, I edited the page to reflect the correct spelling. I am so glad you caught my mistake and it was corrected.

To clean up extra characters you can go to the advance edit mode which will allow you to do this. I learned this the hard way so I am passing along that tidbit of knowledge.

Again, thank you for catching the misspelling as I am sure we all want wikiHow to look the best it can be.

MA

Many thanks for catching and reverting those vandals!

We don't need disclaimers on individual articles, as we have a general one in the Terms of Use. Thanks!

We're all still learning things!

Mindwin was adding an "interwiki" link -- a connection between versions of an article in two different languages. In this case, it's between English and Portuguese.

Why it is illegal, still, p.l..s.don't delete the page.

so, ur going to delete, and one question, how can I be an admin?

PLease reply!

I am glad you like it...thanks for the appreciation.

Great to hear. :)

I deleted your category page.

If you wish to create a page like that, please do it under your username, so for example,

http://www.wikihow.com/User:Kalsikum/Category____

Any user customization or special page someone wishes to create should be under their name; not wikihow's ;)

Done =)

Thank you!

To tell the truth, I'm not sure myself :) I think it just means that if there is a F' move in the step, there will be an F move to, and so on.

Thanks for your tip, though it will not be a problem.

Hi Kals, you probably already have an answer from someone else but I'd describe those items as non-items and I'd remove them from the "Things You'll Need". Hope that is useful for you.

If only one editor was involved in some vandalism, even if it was spread out over several different edits, the "rollback" button will not only revert their changes, but it will also mark their edits patrolled, making things easier on the rest of the RC patrol.

The rollback function affects the last consecutive edits by the last editor. If edits by A, B, and C went like this: a, b, c, a, b, a, c, b, c, c; then rollback would undo the last two edit, both by C, but not the two earlier edits by C.

Hiya!
Thanks for the rollback on my userpage; I'm a wee bit late in thanking you, but I'll give it a go anyways :)
Thanks a lot!

Have you heard about the song-writing contest in the forum? Go check it out!

Do you want the link?

Sorry, I didn't see your post until now. Yes you only are required to write the song, but you can do the symbols for extra points :)

lol

By the way, it doesn't have to be an alicia keys-smash-hit type of song.

It only has to be a song that tries to make a difference

Good Luck!

Sincerely,

♫Hollistergirl♫

Thanks. I made a personal warning. Cal said I should make it a template so I did. He should get credit too.

how do u become a rc patrol?

Thanks for the cool design of The wikiHow Herald!

I plan on keeping the design how it designed how it is shown after my changes made here.
