Questions
[edit]{{helpme}}
Why my user page link is red and there is nothing there? Dreamback1116 (talk) 14:57, 18 June 2008 (UTC)
- Because you haven't put anything there. Feel free to edit it and tell a short bit about yourself, what your goals on Wikipedia are, etc. You may also consider adding some userboxes. xenocidic (talk) 15:00, 18 June 2008 (UTC)

Can I send icons or photos of me to the user page? If so, how to? Dreamback1116 (talk) 15:19, 18 June 2008 (UTC)
- You can add userboxes to your userpage, if you would like to upload a photo of yourself, you can, just go to Wikipedia:Upload. But I would probably caution against doing this - it's ultimately your call. xenocidic (talk) 15:24, 18 June 2008 (UTC)

Please! Who can tell me how to creat a "contents" column in my discussion page? It seems too hard for me. Dreamback1116 (talk) 04:01, 19 June 2008 (UTC)
- Just add the following anywhere on your talk page that you'd like the table of contents to be: __TOC__ GlassCobra 07:13, 19 June 2008 (UTC)

Can I use a photo from a paper in a journal? And how to create a chart in an entry? Dreamback1116 (talk) 12:12, 23 June 2008 (UTC)
- Photos from newspapers generally aren't allowed (I assume that's what you mean). Also, if you want to make a chart, see Help:Table for help. Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • (Broken clamshells•Otter chirps) 12:23, 23 June 2008 (UTC)
- I mean in a academic journal. Can this be used? Dreamback1116 (talk) 12:42, 23 June 2008 (UTC)

I want to translate an article into another language, how to do? Dreamback1116 (talk) 12:41, 3 October 2008 (UTC)
{{helpme}}My userbox always at the bottom of my userpage, how to make it attached to other box, so looks neater? Dreamback1116 (talk) 11:19, 20 January 2009 (UTC)
- Hi there. To make everything come out next to each other, the code for creating the boxes needs to be next to the other ones. If you have more detailed questions, the best place to ask is at WP:Help desk. Best regards. --Chasingsol(talk) 13:18, 20 January 2009 (UTC)

What language is Yayo?
[edit]Hello Dreamback1116. On 24 December 2008, you added an etymology section to the article on Pidgin. In it, you refer to "A Yayo word pidians, which means people." However, I can find no reference to a 'Yayo' language. Could you please clarify, correct or delete this reference. Thanks. Jonathan O'Donnell (talk) 11:47, 3 April 2010 (UTC)
- Thanks for your devotion to this detail. It's been a long time since I wrote that sentence, and I can't remember what is Yayo, either. But I will find the source to which I refered that time, and making due modification in a few days. Dreamback1116 (talk) 04:13, 4 April 2010 (UTC)
