Thank you for choosing me as your coach. I hope I can help you reach your goals on Wikipedia.

What are your goals?

The Transhumanist 11:13, 12 January 2008 (UTC)

My goals are learning everything about the programs you use as an admin. Besides, that´s clear, I want to help stopping vandalism. If you can show me this things and if you can give me the knowledge I need for becoming an good admin, I´d be very happy!

Edit summaries

edit

The first thing I noticed is that you don't always fill in your edit summaries. You should fill those in - it helps others understand what you have done when they look at the edit histories for articles and when they look at your contribution history.

There's a setting in "my contributions" you can use to force you to remember.

The Transhumanist 11:13, 12 January 2008 (UTC)

No problem, I promise you that in the future I´ll fill all my edits!


First assignment

edit

Familiarize yourself with every page listed on WP:DIR - click on each one and read it.

The Transhumanist 11:13, 12 January 2008 (UTC)

Wow! That are lots of pages. But I´m sure that tomorrow I know them. Today, I´ve lots of things to do, so only tomorrow I can learn something.
You don't have to do it all in one day.   The Transhumanist 22:44, 14 January 2008 (UTC)

Answering messages

edit

You mixed your responses with my posts above. It was hard to tell at first glance what I posted above from your answers. I've reformatted the discussion, moving your answers to after each of my posts to more easily tell them apart.

Please see Wikipedia:Indentation and Wikipedia:Signatures.

Tools

edit

A good place to start is my tool page.

There's a link to it on my user page.

Vandalism

edit

The lesson The Rambling Man, on vandalism is a very good place to start.

See also Vandalism.

Edit summaries

edit

Please fill in your edit summaries.

If you have a hard time remembering, there's a setting that will remind you in "my preferences."

Collaboration

edit

I'm pushing a collaboration to complete the list of basic space exploration topics.

Should be fun. Drop on by.  ;)

Also, see my post to User talk:Quiddity#Basic topic lists if you want to delve in deeper.

I resign as your coach. I've moved this page to your userspace for safekeeping.
