Welcome
Welcome! 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:
 * The Five Pillars of Wikipedia
 * How to edit a page
 * Editing tutorial
 * Picture tutorial
 * How to write a great article
 * Naming conventions
 * Manual of Style

Please bear these points in mind while editing Wikipedia:
 * Respect copyrights – do not copy and paste text or images directly from other websites.
 * Maintain a neutral point of view – this is possibly the most important Wikipedia policy.
 * Take particular care while adding biographical material about a  living person to any Wikipedia page. Particularly, controversial and negative statements should be referenced to multiple reliable sources.
 * No edit warring and sockpuppetry.
 * If you are testing, please use the Sandbox to [ do so].
 * Do not add troublesome content to any article, such as: copyrighted text, libel, advertising or promotional messages, and text that is not related to an article's subject. Deliberately adding such content or otherwise editing articles maliciously is considered vandalism, doing so will result your account or IP being blocked from editing.
 * Lastly, if you are editing an article about an individual or group of people, please adhere to Wikipedia's Biography of Living Persons' policy.

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. By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and discussion pages using four tildes, like this: &#126;&#126;&#126;&#126; (the software will replace them with your signature and the date).

Help me!
I recall seeing on a wiki page a multi-column list that resized itself to fit across the page. (If it was an 18-entry list, it would display as 2 columns of 9 entries, or 3 columns of 6 entries, or 4 columns of 5 or 4 entries, and so on, depending on the width of the page display.) I don't recall which page, and I don't recall the syntax to create that list. I assume it's a template of some sort. How do I do this?

 * , I'm surprised that this is the only page with a title starting with "Doors Open" that is being considered for deletion. Either they're all notable, or none of them are. --Rob Kelk 19:49, 25 May 2019 (UTC)

Satan Never Sleeps
Hello, Robkelk. I've just found your message and went to look at any changes I did to the article, though at this moment I don't have any memories of recent things (my brain cells are voting with their feet, it may or may not come back to me later). I looked on the record of the article (I only saw it in black and white on a prime time film of the mid 1960s but had recently seen the trailer to it on a DVD, maybe I'll order the disc?_ and have seen my last edit to it was 27 Jan 2014 where I corrected some spelling errors, made a second paragraph in the opening and remarked on it being Clifton Webb's last film. Do you have the right person?  If so please tell me what I edited. Thank you, nice to meet you.Foofbun (talk) 23:10, 25 April 2021 (UTC)
 * , you have the right person, but the wrong edit. I was asking about your reversion of my edit to "The Devil Never Sleeps" - you changed it back to a redirect to "Satan Never Sleeps", overwriting my contribution of a stub for a movie that's been named to the National Film Registry. --Rob Kelk 11:44, 26 April 2021 (UTC)


 * Thanks for your response, Rob. I'm a bit bewildered, befuddled and bamboozled. Isn't this the same film? The original US title was 'SNS' the UK title TDNS. Doesn't Wikipedia use the original English language title for a film, so if it was a US film it would be SNS, whilst if it was an English made film TDNS? Please clarify for my edification. Thanks for your help.Foofbun (talk) 22:04, 26 April 2021 (UTC)
 * No, they aren't the same film. Satan Never Sleeps is a work of fiction that was released in 1962; The Devil Never Sleeps is a documentary that was released in 1994. --Rob Kelk 01:16, 28 April 2021 (UTC)
