Help me!
Please help me with... Hello, I'm trying to set up a page for Mr. Luo Ming, a famous writer in Singapore, who has promoted Singapore Chinese Literature to the world. I'm not sure how to do that. Can you please help? Also, would it be most appropriate to put it under 'biographies of living person'?

If yes, how do I do that? I'm not sure how to start a page ... and then how do I tag it under the category?

Thanks very much! Lee Lyyap888 (talk) 07:40, 23 April 2020 (UTC)

Help me! How do I save
Please help me with... Hello,

I've written a draft of a living person. Few questions: 1) How do I save? 2) How do I retrieve this draft next time I want to work on it again? Last time I got out of wiki, i couldn't find it and have to re-do everything. 3) How do I tag the correct category: Living Person? 4) How do I cite reference? 5) Once I click publish, it will be sent for review?

Thanks, Lyyap888 (talk) 15:05, 30 April 2020 (UTC) Lyyap888 (talk) 15:05, 30 April 2020 (UTC)
 * The 'save' button got renamed to 'publish' a while back. This renaming was necessary, but has caused unending confusion. The 'save' action, now 'publish', send the content you've written to Wikipedia's servers where it can be seen by anyone who knows where to look. That action does not submit it for review.
 * I does not appear that you have ever saved your draft. Sorry, but if you don't save it, we can't guide you back to it. You'll have to start again, I'm afraid. Sometimes the easiest way to find things you've written is to look at your contributions. There's a button for that on the desktop view of Wikipedia. If you're on the mobile view, there is a button to switch to desktop view at the very bottom of the page (there may well be a way to get to your contributions more directly in the mobile view but I never use it). Your contributions can also be found at this link https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/Lyyap888
 * On a draft, there is absolutely no need to add categories. They will be added as appropriate by the accepting reviewer and a host of other editors who watch for new articles in order to categorize them.
 * Citing references is something you have to follow instructions for. I suggest referencing for beginners as a place to start.
 * I hope you find editing Wikipedia to be an engaging and enjoyable activity.  — jmcgnh (talk) (contribs) 15:45, 30 April 2020 (UTC)
