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 my talk page. By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and discussion pages using four tildes, like this: ~~~~ (the software will replace them with your signature and the date). Again, welcome!

Talk pages

edit

Please review the guidelines at HELP:Talk pages for signing, indenting etc. of talk page posts. -- Kautilya3 (talk) 15:56, 20 August 2017 (UTC)Reply

Dear Karl, I have suggested that you review the talk page guidelines, but you do not seem to have done so. Please stop putting double signatures on your messages like this. It makes it very confusing to follow what is going on. -- Kautilya3 (talk) 01:41, 23 August 2017 (UTC)Reply
