Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. The following links will help you begin editing on Wikipedia:

Please bear these points in mind while editing Wikipedia:

The Wikipedia tutorial is a good place to start learning about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and discussion pages using four tildes, like this: ~~~~ (the software will replace them with your signature and the date).

Information icon Hello, I'm KGirlTrucker81. Thank you for your recent contributions. I noticed that when you added the image to the infobox, you added it as a thumbnail. In the future, please do not use thumbnails when adding images to an infobox (see WP:INFOBOXIMAGE). What does this mean? Well in the infobox, when you specify the image you wish to use, instead of doing it like this:

|image=[[File:SomeImage.jpg|thumb|Some image caption]]

Instead just supply the name of the image. So in this case you can simply do:

|image=SomeImage.jpg.

There will then be a separate parameter for the image caption such as |caption=Some image caption. Please note that this is a generic form message I am leaving on your page because you recently added a thumbnail to an infobox. The specific parameters for the image and caption may be different for the infobox you are using! Please consult the Template page for the infobox being used to see better documentation. Thanks!

Hi Skydancer99,
Please note that your edit summary here, is not correct.

  • You did not "Created bio page, sponsors, career, life, etc". It already was a Biography of a Living Person (WP:BLP) which I started, here .
  • Please beware of edits like this which replace properly formatted, WP:Third party references with ones that are possibly WP:COI (Billabong) as you have used a number of links to that company's sources.
  • You used MDY (USA) date format, it should be Australian DMY date format.

Ways to improve Bronte Macaulay

[edit]

Hi, I'm Cwmhiraeth. Skydancer99, thanks for creating Bronte Macaulay!

I've just tagged the page, using our page curation tools, as having some issues to fix. You must not copy and paste text from sources you find on the web into articles as you did in this article. Please learn how to format you references correctly.

The tags can be removed by you or another editor once the issues they mention are addressed. If you have questions, you can leave a comment on my talk page. Or, for more editing help, talk to the volunteers at the Teahouse.
