Your signature on the open letter
editHi, Worldish2024. I'm afraid I had to remove your signature on the open letter, since it was misspelt ("Worlsish") and consequently was a red link which didn't lead to your userpage. I didn't feel right about simply correcting the spelling, since it's your signature. Also, the signature should preferably contain a talkpage link and a timestamp, as the others do. The best way to get all this correct without any risk of typos is to simply type four tildes, ~~~~, as the "Welcome" section above also advises you. Good luck.

- 1. It's ok. You can correct my spelling! Sometimes I mistype. It happens all the time and it's very common in people who type fast. So it's ok to correct anyone's spelling, even mine!^^
- 2. And I don't actually have a talk page. Bella. (talk) 03:55, 24 November 2024 (UTC)
- Well actually I do have a talk page now, I just don't talk in this page that much. Bella. (talk) 03:56, 24 November 2024 (UTC)
- Oh yeah. I signed the open letter again, this time with the date, time, and the CORRECT spelling of my username! So there shouldn't be a red link in there now. Also, would you like to know how I came up with my username? Bella. (talk) 04:00, 24 November 2024 (UTC)
- Your signature is fine now. I'm not up for much chatting at this time, sorry. Bishonen | tålk 10:27, 24 November 2024 (UTC).
- That's OK! You can find out if you wanna talk later! Bella. (talk) 16:06, 24 November 2024 (UTC)

What Wikipedia is for
editHello there. I looked at some of your contributions after I found you on my guestbook (for the record, boba refers to bubble tea and/or the tapioca pearls in it, not boobs) and I have some concerns regarding how you are using Wikipedia. You seem to be using Wikipedia as a host for your personal diary, as well as a social networking site, both of which are not allowed (also, I wouldn’t recommend hosting your diary here even if it was allowed, due to the public nature of Wikipedia.) If you’re editing Wikipedia, you should be helping to create/expand/protect the encyclopedia, any other use of Wikipedia risks you being blocked for not being here to build an encyclopedia. If you have any further questions, don’t hesitate to ask. If you are interested in building the encyclopedia, we would love to have you here.

Help me!

Could I get some volunteers to help me with my article page titled Draft:Isabella Maria Lopez? Worldish2024 (talk) 19:54, 12 January 2025 (UTC)
- A {{help me}} request is kind of a one-shot; the first helper that sees it will respond, close it, and you won't get much more in the way of replies unless they are watching the conversation. You are rather vague with your request, so I will be rather hand-wavey in my response to it. If you just want to request an article be written, there is WP:RA. If you want to ask people who are interested in the subject or related, ask at the talk page of a WikiProject (I do not know who Lopez is or what she does, so you'll have to find a specific WikiProject yourself, but I would at the very least suggest WP:WPWIR). If you want more help, change the {{help me-helped}} back into a {{help me}}, stop by the Teahouse, or Wikipedia's live help channel, or the help desk to ask someone for assistance. Primefac (talk) 20:13, 12 January 2025 (UTC)
- It doesn't look like you have saved (clicked on the "Publish" button) your draft. Until you do that, nobody else can see it.
- Unfortunately you cannot use the {{help}} templates to ask for people to contribute to your draft. You may ask, in a neutral way, at one of the WikiProject talk pages, such as WT:WikiProject_Biography. — jmcgnh(talk) (contribs) 20:15, 12 January 2025 (UTC)
- One more thing, that neither Primefac nor I mentioned in our initial (simultaneous) responses...
- Based on your user page, it appears you may be wanting to write a biographical page about yourself. While you are allowed to create a draft about yourself, writing about yourself on Wikipedia is strongly discouraged. Please see WP:Autobiography for more information. — jmcgnh(talk) (contribs) 20:17, 12 January 2025 (UTC)
