User talk:Julcal

Welcome!

Hello,, and welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines for page creation, and may soon be deleted.

There's a page about creating articles you may want to read called Your first article. If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the New contributors' help page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type   on this page, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Here are a few other good links for newcomers: I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes ( ~ ); this will automatically produce your name and the date. If you have any questions, check out Where to ask a question or ask me on.

Speedy deletion of Migraine-associated vertigo
A tag has been placed on Migraine-associated vertigo requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

Warning! Stop it for heavens sake
Stop inserting discussion fragments into article pages. Put signed discussion fragments to the talk pages. This is no blog, use the talk page for discussion and then apply appropriate edits in the appropriate place of the article, provide an edit summary and cited sources. Please revert your previous edits, or we have to do it and then to block you. If you think your previous edits make sense as proposals, move them from the article pages to the corresponding talk pages. But now stop it!!!!!! 70.137.165.53 (talk) 13:40, 6 April 2009 (UTC)

You go to the article in question, then click on the bar "discussion" on top of the page. This is the talk page for the article. You go to the bottom and start a new paragraph by making two "equal signs" for a fat print header, the name of the topic, and again two "equal signs". Then you have a new header title saying what you want to discuss. Then you add all your thought, proposals and concerns, improvements etc. At the end you sign with four tilde signs, this enters your name as a signature, with time and date. Then you put a short summary into the field "Edit summary" below the edit box. Open other articles in "edit" to see how to do inline citations, use the article citations as a sample. Read WP:MEDMOS manual of style for medical articles, for what to use as references and how to organize the article, also look a lot how good articles are organized and cited etc. Maybe start with smaller edits on existing articles and get familiar with it, and don't forget to discuss large changes. Ask questions. Experienced editors will help you. More I do not know myself, so heads up. Take your time, articles develop over weeks usually, with much discussion and forth and back and ho and fro. Good luck. I have reverted your edits, where they were not already reverted. {-: but first we had to stop you before you append new proposals to 1 Mio articles in a blink of an eye. ;-) Really, go easy. 70.137.165.53 (talk) 15:22, 6 April 2009 (UTC)

Aah, forgot to mention {senile me} in the actual article you DON'T sign with four tilde characters, you DON'T append to the bottom, but you put your edits where you want to change the article. But you use an edit summary. You find the edit history by clicking on "history" above the article, giving a list who edited when and what with the edit summaries. So you can see from the summary where which change was done when. To remember what you have edited, you go to the left side of your user page and click in "toolbox" on "user contributions" and you see what you have edited when, with edit summaries. You play a little, look at edit history then figure out how you can see differences by clicking buttons on the versions you want to compare and then clicking "compare". You see what was changed between the versions, side by side, with the changes highlighted. Play a bit. Above on this page there somebody sent you "How to edit" click on the links and read. Much more I can't help, I am senile myself. But feel free to ask on my talk page. 70.137.165.53 (talk) 15:46, 6 April 2009 (UTC) 70.137.165.53 (talk) 15:46, 6 April 2009 (UTC)

Sometimes the Wikipedia computers are sluggish and take up to hours to correctly reflect recent edits. Sometimes it helps to click the "refresh" or "reload" button on the browser repeatedly, to get the updated version loaded, as the old version is still loaded in some server on the way from Wikipedia to your computer. So if you do "reload" then successive servers load a new copy of the article, which then reflects newer updates. I think it may have to do with this. 70.137.165.53 (talk) 11:02, 7 April 2009 (UTC)

Sometimes it also helps to do "clear browser cache" on your browser, depends on browser, where this button is. Your browser also may keep copies of the old pages and display them to save the effort and time to load all data new. This gives the same effect, that seemingly your edits take no effect. 70.137.165.53 (talk) 23:04, 7 April 2009 (UTC)

Green numbers and red numbers? Please explain where you get these, I do not understand. Actually all pages should keep your edits if these are not reversed by somebody else. You click on history to see who edited what and when. Then you see if somebody changed your edit, and where. 70.137.153.83 (talk) 03:31, 12 April 2009 (UTC) 70.137.153.83 (talk) 03:31, 12 April 2009 (UTC)


 * The red and green numbers indicate the overall net change in number of characters for an article. For example, if you remove 3 characters from an article, and then add 4 characters, the number will be a green '+1'. You may also wish to consider indenting comments on your talkpage by putting 1 more ':' at the start of a comment than the comment above it.--Tangent747 (talk) 16:15, 12 April 2009 (UTC)

Moving your user talk page
In the future, please don't move your user talk page anywhere. Your user talk page is meant to be a specific place where users can contact you and it's important that the page and all of its history remain here. If you want to create a page in your user space as you previously did, I suggest creating what's called a user subpage and moving that when it's ready. For example, for the page you created, the thing to do would have been to create a page called User:Julcal/Migraine-Associated Vertigo and writing the article there. That way, when it's ready you can move it without disrupting your own talk page. Cheers, Oren0 (talk) 06:51, 13 April 2009 (UTC)

=AN/I Alert== A situation involving your editing is being discussed at the Administrators' Notice Board. You will probably want to comment. DGG (talk) 16:09, 14 April 2009 (UTC)
 * After the discussion on the Administrator's noticeboard it appears that we have a rough consensus to issue only a warning to you and that no block is necessary. Therefore I strongly caution you to not add any links to your forum on wikipedia. Thoroughly read up WP:COI and get yourself familiar with these guidelines. On a final note, if you do have any issues with stalking please don't do things such as blanking edits, it's considered disruptive editing. Instead, take these concerns to proper venues, such as the Administrator Noticeboard/Incidents where we can sort things out properly. I hope you take these warnings into consideration and I wish you the best. Cheers, Icestorm815  •  Talk  21:19, 14 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Actually, the page I was referring to is the same page we had our discussion at. A quick link to it is WP:AN/I. If you have any questions at any time, feel free to ask! Cheers, Icestorm815  •  Talk  00:25, 15 April 2009 (UTC)

Your recent edits
Hi there. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( &#126;&#126;&#126;&#126; ) at the end of your comment. If you can't type the tilde character, you should click on the signature button located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your name and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you! --SineBot (talk) 19:59, 14 April 2009 (UTC)
