Font magic?

Hi, I know you can do magic with user boxes, etc. I'm wondering do you have any font magic to figure out how to make the title in the Infobox on Annie Walke be white? I've tried a couple of things - all which is ignored by the Wikipedia Infobox logic.

I hope your schooling is going well!--CaroleHenson (talk) 15:44, 2 October 2012 (UTC)

Hi Carole, yes, it's fun! Not as easy as I thought but fun, I think I'd be very happy if I pass one of my courses. I changed the colour, simply by writing white on the bgcolour section. :D --RexRowan忍(Ninja signal) 18:29, 2 October 2012 (UTC)
Hi, thanks! I like the link you gave me to web colors. I'm wanting, though, just to change the font color from black to white where the background is the pretty reddish color. Is that possible, or should I just leave it in black font?
Congratulations on moving the park article to article space!--CaroleHenson (talk) 18:47, 2 October 2012 (UTC)
Oh, I got it - I was trying to hard - there's a template {{Font color|blue|this is about plants}}--CaroleHenson (talk) 18:52, 2 October 2012 (UTC)
Cool, it is beautiful white in pink. :D --RexRowan忍(Ninja signal) 18:57, 2 October 2012 (UTC)

Talk:Biodiversity of Wales/GA1

Hi there. I'm afraid I've had to close this review as unsuccessful at this time- it's a great topic, and one worthy of close attention, but the article is not ready for "good" status yet. I've provided some pointers of what needs to be done- feel free to contact me on my talk page if you need any clarifications or I can be of any help. J Milburn (talk) 19:10, 3 October 2012 (UTC)

A reference at the end of each paragraph would help clarify the source of the information, provided the source page was a reliable one. Citation templates can be very helpful. Let's say you were citing this article. You would use Template:Cite news, and format it like this-
<ref name="Three suspended">{{cite news |title= Three suspended over West Coast contract fiasco|author= Ross, Tim|url= http://www.telegraph.co.uk/finance/newsbysector/transport/9584259/Three-suspended-over-West-Coast-contract-fiasco.html|newspaper= [[The Daily Telegraph]]|date= 3 October 2012|accessdate=3 October 2012}}</ref>
on the first instance, and like this-
<ref name="Three suspended"/>
every time afterwards. So, your article would look something like this-


Blah blah blah. Blah blah blah. Blah blah blah. Blah blah blah. Blah blah blah. Blah blah blah. Blah blah blah. Blah blah blah. Blah blah blah. Blah blah blah. Blah blah blah.[1]

Blah blah blah. Blah blah blah. Blah blah blah. Blah blah blah. Blah blah blah. Blah blah blah. Blah blah blah. Blah blah blah. Blah blah blah. Blah blah blah. Blah blah blah. Blah blah blah. Blah blah blah. Blah blah blah. Blah blah blah. Blah blah blah. Blah blah blah. Blah blah blah. Blah blah blah. Blah blah blah. Blah blah blah. Blah blah blah. Blah blah blah.[1]

Blah blah blah. Blah blah blah. Blah blah blah. Blah blah blah. Blah blah blah. Blah blah blah. Blah blah blah. Blah blah blah. Blah blah blah. Blah blah blah. Blah blah blah. Blah blah blah. Blah blah blah. Blah blah blah. Blah blah blah. Blah blah blah.[1]

Thank you very much! I know this format but didn't thought it was necessary. I will add them to avoid confusion. :D --RexRowan忍(Ninja signal) 10:21, 4 October 2012 (UTC)

Hey there Rex!

So I just noticed that your comment on Worm's wall might mean something, and finally looked at my user page. Thank you very much!

You are very welcome! Here's a page on how to create signatures Wikipedia:Signatures. --RexRowan忍(Ninja signal) 08:59, 6 October 2012 (UTC)


Thank you again :)Libertarian=Truth? (talk) 20:45, 6 October 2012 (UTC)
Just took A crack at it and well, it turned out making my signature my entire Userpage. How would I do a signature with the Font Papyrus, a purple color(darkish if possible), and looking like LibertarianSupport while The "Libertarian" Part linked to my userpage, and the "Support" Part linked to my talk page? LibertarianSupport (talk) 20:56, 6 October 2012 (UTC)


Much better :) not sure why, but the < /font > tag was unneccesary for the talkpage part, it justneeded < /span > LibertarianSupport 20:20, 7 October 2012 (UTC)
Oh cool, it worked. I'm not sure, maybe it got covered by the first command. I'm still learning coding, it may take a while for me to truly understand these stuff. I'm glad you figure it out, what a smartie! :D --RexRowanTalk 08:08, 8 October 2012 (UTC)
Haha smartie? Nothing of the sort.... I just looked at both lines and tried about 50 times before i figured it outXD I don't really know any non-basic-HTML code, so.... I had no chance without ya haha :D Thanks again!LibertarianSupport 19:15, 8 October 2012 (UTC)
Yeah, keep on tweaking till you get it right, that what I do. I created an adoption page for you with Worm's courses. If you need further assistance, just buzz me. :D --RexRowanTalk 19:17, 8 October 2012 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Eric Grimson

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read

the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard

to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on

section A3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an article with no content whatsoever, or whose contents consist only of external links, a "See also" section, book references, category tags, template tags, interwiki links, a rephrasing of the title, or an attempt to contact the subject of the article. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify
their content.

If you think that the page was nominated in error, contest the nomination by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion" in the speedy deletion tag. Doing so will take you to the talk page where you can explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but do not hesitate to add information that is consistent with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. Eeekster (talk) 19:35, 8 October 2012 (UTC)

Wikimedia Medicine

Hey. I don't know if your interest in biology ever spills over to medicine but, if it does, you may want to know about m:Wikimedia Medicine. It's a new non-profit corporation that will be raising and disbursing funds and lobbying Wikipedias, governments, corporations, professional and scholarly societies, etc. to improve the quality and coverage of medical information online, in all languages. Though we'll be recognised by the Wikimedia Foundation, and hopefully receive some funding from them, we're independent of them and are open to any solution that will help achieve our aims. --Anthonyhcole (talk) 07:35, 10 October 2012 (UTC)
