User talk:Selfish
From Encyclopedia Dramatica
oh it's me
The articles you made are fucking shit. One sentenced articles doesn't do anyone good. Read other articles, and learn about formatting, lulz, and drama. THEN maybe you can start making minor edits.... and if that goes well, you might try creating a new article. Have patience and the will to learn... and carefully read this welcome template. ~ Banaan 13:24, 17 Oct 2005 (UTC)
Hello, Selfish
THIS IS SERIOUS; READ IT.
Congratulations on joining ED! You probably fit into one of these categories:
- 1. New User
- Before making your first article look over ED:101. Try checking out random articles and fixing typos, grammar and/or bullshit where you find them before trying to make a new page. To start with, make multiple small edits to different articles until you have the hang of it. If you don't, it is unlikely that your article will survive for more than sixty seconds and you risk being molested by ED Sysops.
- If you don't know anything about wiki formatting and code, please read ED:BASIC and the Style Guide. Take your time and start slowly.
- 2. Mediawiki Migrant If you're an experienced wiki user (probably from a Wikipedia offshoot) who knows how to operate, please read ED:101 for offical policy and ED:MIGRANT for tips on assimilation and basic rules.
Whichever you are, to successfully contribute to ED, please take some time to look around, note why other people get banned and don't act like they did.
Communication with other users prevents misunderstandings and can be done through talk pages, TJC and the mailing list.
If you plan on sticking around, feel free to make your mark on the ED:Map and join the all new ED Facebook, the ED Myspace the ED Bebo and follow the ED Twitter.
For example, learn to post a reply in the same article as I made this comment, instead of in my userpage........
I don't expect you to know how to work this thing, that's why you'll have to learn it, by being patient for one thing, and thereby developing a sense of humor. It is possible, be funny or you're not welcome here. ~ Banaan 13:32, 17 Oct 2005 (UTC)
uhh so do i just click edit instead of looking uselessly for a reply button?
exactly. And sign your comments please (look at the buttons right above the edit form). ~ Banaan 13:35, 17 Oct 2005 (UTC)
