Welcome to Wikipedia. You will find a surprising amount of support for your class project. Don't worry too much about the details of Wikipedia...just add good reliable content...which is far harder to do than endless formatting! Cheers! Wassupwestcoast ( talk) 02:44, 27 August 2008 (UTC)
Nice Job on making it your own. I am glad you felt at ease to use my main page, but I noticed you didn't use everything! If you want, feel free to use all my information and edit it to fit you! Hey, its how I got my page! Any who, great work on making it individual and unique - I see you understand how to change link directions and things like text color (It took me about half an hour to get it down too). If you need help though just stop by my talk page and leave a message, I will be glad to help! FoodPuma ( talk) 03:39, 30 August 2008 (UTC)
Hi Duckhunter92. Yes I will assist you in your project. I'm sorry to say that I might not have that much time to help and you might have to wait a few days before I answer but I will do my best. To start with I suggest that you read 3 pages, WP:FISH this is the fish project that helps you find out how a fish page should look like, and then WP:SHARK which is specifically for sharks, there are help for where to find information and what to include in those two pages and their sub pages. Finally I want you to read Oceanic whitetip shark which is the only WP:FA shark article and see what a good shark page should look like. Whale shark and Tiger shark are good articles also good for your reference. Good luck, if you have any questions just ask. -- Stefan talk 03:56, 15 September 2008 (UTC)

Tip: If your making lots of small changes to a page, rather then clicking "Save page" for every change to see how it looks, Use "Show preview" between changes. When you have done editing a page for the time being, then you click "Save page". The reason for this is so you don’t make a save for every little thing you change, thus creating more revisions than necessary. For more information, ask your teacher or contact me on my talk page . |
Tip: When you make a change to an article page, its good practice to fill out the Edit summary field. The edit summary field is a small text box above the Save Page button where you can briefly describe the changes you have made. The reason this is good practice is it tells other users what you changed without them having to view the revision. It also makes it easy to find a particuler edit in the page history should you wish to UNDO an edit or see the date of a change. |
Hi!
Nice first update to Shortfin mako shark! I updated the use of the reference code a bit, see my . The ref name is just for you to use inside the page, it is never seen outside the editing window, so it is easier if it is short. Also since it is used like this you can use the same cite tag many times, so you do not need to add it the second time. I put in the publisher, which is good info and the access date, the access date is also very good to have to show WHEN you read the page, maybe it have been updated since then. -- Stefan talk 06:14, 2 October 2008 (UTC)
Hi!
Some comments on your latest updates [1]. You need to rewrite the text from the reference to more fit into a encyclopedia, make the language easier to understand, now it is hard to figure out what you mean with e.g. this "The shortfin’s aggressive behavior could be responsible for fisherman reporting that these sharks have released from the fishing lines and then proceed to bully the ones on the boat." sentence and I fixed this edit. Also try to fit the text in better, now you added the high body temperature in a new place while it is already mentioned in the same section. -- Stefan talk 12:14, 4 November 2008 (UTC)
