How to link to image files without displaying the image
When you want to insert an image into a page, you surround the filename with two brackets, like this:
 * File:Zinichthys jaws.png

But if you only want to link to the image, you have to "disable" the image by inserting a colon after the first pair of brackets:
 * File:Zinichthys jaws.png

This little trick works for categories as well. Normally, if you want to include an article into a particular category, you just simply type a wikilink to that category. But if you want to link to the category itself, you must add a colon before the first letter of the link.


 * Best wishes,

Just to make your life easier, it's not necessary to type out long detailed explanations for simple things like reverting blatant vandalism. Just writing "reverting vandalism" or just "rv" is enough; someone who's curious can look in the old revisions of the article for more information.

RfA voting
Hello. I saw that you have commented a vote on requests for adminship. It seems like the comment broke listing for it.

For example if someone supported, and you want to comment his/her entry, do it like the following:

(I agree! being your comment) It will result as following: Do not forget to add # or : before your comment. Like this:
 * 1) Support I think this is a fantastic candidate. Someone (talk) 23:23 October 25 2009
 * I agree! ~
 * 1) Support Very nice guy Someone else (talk) 23:53 October 25 2009
 * 1) Support I think this is a fantastic candidate. Someone (talk) 23:23 October 25 2009
 * I agree! You (talk) 23:56 October 25 2009
 * 1) Support Very nice guy Someone else (talk) 23:53 October 25 2009
 * 1) Support I think this is a fantastic candidate. Someone (talk) 23:23 October 25 2009
 * I agree! ~

If you do, it will break the listing like this:
 * 1) Support Very nice guy Someone else (talk) 23:53 October 25 2009
 * 1) Support I think this is a fantastic candidate. Someone (talk) 23:23 October 25 2009
 * I agree! You (talk) 23:56 October 25 2009


 * 1) Support Very nice guy Someone else (talk) 23:53 October 25 2009
