Hi, I see you are eager to let the world know yourself with an '''Awesome''' userpage, but I suggest you try out the “Show preview” button down there next time , 'k?

:Oh, one more thing: unlike other wiki softwares, MediaWiki has the concept of Namespaces. For example all media is in the [[:Image:Oracles_Profile.jpg|Image:]] namespace and all user pages have their [[User:Geneko_Nemeth|User:]] and [[User_talk:Geneko_Nemeth|User_talk:]] namespaces. Articles have an anonymous namespace. So if [[User:Peyton_Aleixandre|Peyton_Aleixandre]] is a Second Life Wiki user, her user page would appear at [[User:Peyton_Aleixandre]]. But it looks like she hasn't signed up yet (no "User contributions" link in toolbox). --[[User:Geneko Nemeth|Geneko Nemeth]] 13:03, 19 July 2008 (PDT) | :Oh, one more thing: unlike other wiki softwares, MediaWiki has the concept of Namespaces.

I have had quite a bit of experience editing Wikipedia, but only started using this today after a friend said I should - So Just figuring out how some stuff works - and yeah got the preview button now - although I'm not totally sure why you had to point it out to me - not to be rude but the whole way you worded the message made little sense to me - sounded a little condescending although maybe I read it wrong. As for the Peyton Aleixandre thing - yes it's not made yet - but she is on skype with me right now and wants me to help make hers so I don't really know what the deal with that is either nor what the comment was about - I totally appreciate any help and for that I thank you although I am fairly new to this and am learning :) | |||

I have had quite a bit of experience editing Wikipedia, but only started using this today after a friend said I should - So Just figuring out how some stuff works - and yeah got the preview button now - although I'm not totally sure why you had to point it out to me - not to be rude but the whole way you worded the message made little sense to me - sounded a little condescending although maybe I read it wrong. As for the Peyton Aleixandre thing - yes it's not made yet - but she is on skype with me right now and wants me to help make hers so I don't really know what the deal with that is either nor what the comment was about - I totally appreciate any help and for that I thank you although I am fairly new to this and am learning :)
