You can pretty much do anything you like with your user page - but most people use it to say a little about themselves. Personally, I don't do that, because I stay anonymous - hence my own user page is a bit of a dumping ground for links.


 * What you might like to do is, a) use some 'userboxes' to say something about yourself, and b) make some links to your own test areas.

a) Userboxes

You can add userboxes to your user page, for example like this;

The result of that is show here.

There are many, many to choose from - see the gallery here. You can also make your own.

b) Userspace pages

You can create as many user subpages as you like, to work on articles, experiment, etc. The easiest way to do this is to create links to the non-existent pages on your user page, and then click on them to create them. For example, you could put this on your user page;


 * User:DianeRR/test1
 * User:DianeRR/test2
 * User:DianeRR/test3
 * User:DianeRR/test4

That will display as;


 * User:DianeRR/test1
 * User:DianeRR/test2
 * User:DianeRR/test3
 * User:DianeRR/test4

You can make as many user subpages as you like, and give them any name. By having the links on your user page, it will be convenient to access them.

I hope that this helps. Cheers,  Chzz  ►  21:39, 2 August 2009 (UTC)
