This is your Talk page where you can receive messages from other Wikipedians and discuss things with them. At the end of your messages you must put your signature by signing with four ~~~~ (just as I have done) or by pressing the button in the editor bar as shown here in the picture. By the way, you don't need to sign edits that you make in the articles themselves as those messages will be deleted. Another valuable page that may provide information and assistance is User:Persian Poet Gal/"How-To" Guide to Wikipedia. My name is Buster7. If you have any questions or face any initial hurdles, feel free to contact me on my talk page and I will do what I can to assist or give you guidance and contact information. Good Luck editing!

Centering cells in tables

edit

Hey, I'm curious as to why you are changing align="center" to use the style tag instead on articles? There is no need to and it just makes the articles longer. Maybe I'm unaware of some reason you would want to change this. If so, please tell me.

If anything, do like I did on the Tiësto discography. Skrillex's and Lady Gaga's discographies are also like this. This is how centering most cells in a table is normally done on wikipedia. lukini (talk) 23:13, 12 April 2012 (UTC)Reply

That is weird that it would do that, seeing as the change has no effect on articles other than to make them longer. Oh well, you can go ahead and delete this section if you want. lukini (talk) 19:30, 14 April 2012 (UTC)Reply

A barnstar for you!

edit
  The Citation Barnstar
Thank you for your work on the Tomb Raider: Angel of Darkness article. Now it is finally approaching the quality I have come to expect of a proper WIkipedia article (where on earth did you find all those references? I've been trying to improve that page for years and never found all that? But thanks.) It really needed something saying about its development and long-term effects.

GA review

edit

Hey Trish, I've just reviewed La Bella Mafia. It's very close to passing; it just needs a little bit more of your attention. Thought you'd like to know! ;) Christine (Figureskatingfan) (talk) 06:24, 13 January 2013 (UTC)Reply

Re: A barnstar for you

edit

Thanks. To be frank, I didn't expect it. I was just satisfied by seeing it up there with the other GAs. There are far too few Tomb Raider games up there. This makes my fifth barnstar this year, by the way. It would make me feel slightly giddy if I weren't already from the aftermath of a cold. --ProtoDrake (talk) 06:18, 24 August 2013 (UTC)Reply

Orphaned non-free media (File:Tomb Raider Collector's Edition.jpg)

edit

  Thanks for uploading File:Tomb Raider Collector's Edition.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Werieth (talk) 18:32, 8 September 2013 (UTC)Reply
