Questions I have asked
|
Answers abridged and rewritten for best display on this user page.
From Misplaced Pages:Village pump (policy):
Q: What should I do if an edit conflict is occurring and the other side will not co-operate?
A: First of all, ask for outside opinion, either WP:RFC or WP:3O if a number of editors are involved. Consensus and a compromise should follow. If someone revert wars from this compromise, report it to WP:AN/I and ask a admin to step in.
From Misplaced Pages:Village pump (assistance):
Q: How do I deal with an article which is beyond cleanup?
A: There are some options:
- Create a draft as a subpage from the talk page and tag with {{draft}};
- WP:PNA;
- WP:ACID (if its really notable).

How to add to the community bulletin board
|
| The community bulletin board has 2 sections that can be used by Wikipedians for announcements: "Events and projects" and "WikiProject notices". In general, keep it concise (under 2 lines), refrain from fancy formatting, and new entries should be placed at the top of their section.
- Before editing, make sure you are on Misplaced Pages:Community bulletin board, not Misplaced Pages:Community portal, where the board is transcluded.
- Events and projects: In this section, only organized events, projects, and/or competitions should be listed. These are organized by how often they occur:
- The Yearly section is for uncommon events, like events that only occur every year, once, or irregularly. The Monthly section is for events that occur each month, or are always ongoing.
- WikiProject notices: In this section, any announcement, request for help or other notice from a WikiProject should be listed here.
- Entries should be signed, and ordered from newest to oldest.
- Entries are to be removed after a period of 6 months.

Information
|
Hi, my name is Gareth and this is my home user page. I believe in the freedom that Misplaced Pages offers, the flexibility and ease of editing and creation of new articles that attracted me to become a member of Misplaced Pages.
I generally keep to the media, especially television and radio, as well as the jazz (specifically smooth jazz), computing and video games (specifically but not exclusively Sega) articles of Misplaced Pages. I do occasionally keep an eye out for vandalised articles and revert them to the previous untouched version of that article.
