I strongly agree with Red Marquis. Please start filling out the infoboxes out correctly, it is becoming an annoyance to fellow users who have to cleanup after you. [[User:0-172|0-172]] 4:52, 31 January 2007 (UTC)

:Much better edits on the [[Chrysler LeBaron Coupe|LeBaron Coupe]] and [[Chrysler LeBaron GTS|LeBaron GTS]] pages. I believe these are more in stream with the infoboxes that [[User:Red_marquis|Red_marquis]] had in mind.

Hi there, Yankee, and welcome to Wikicars! I'm a regular moderator and contributor here, and when I notice on the recent changes log that a new editor has registered, I like to send them a welcome message - that's how I ended up on your talk page.

There are a few useful links that you might want to look at, designed to help newcomers to Wikicars learn the ropes:

Here are a few templates on Wikicars that I find particularly helpful when I start a new page:

Here are a few features of Wikicars that I find particularly helpful:

  • If you leave a message on a talk page, you can sign it with four tildes (~), which will automatically produce your name and a date stamp when you save the page.
  • The "Show preview" button allows you to look at what your post will look like before you save it - that way, you can proofread what you've written and not have to back and correct spelling mistakes, failed links, etc.
  • You can create a watchlist for yourself that will keep a record of any changes made to a page that interests you.

There are plenty of other features and facets of Wikicars, many of which I probably haven't even discovered myself, so have fun looking around and finding them.

If you need help, ask me on my talk page.

Again, welcome and thanks for adding to our community! -MQuan 19:37, 4 January 2007 (UTC)


Infoboxes

Been noticing your work. Really appreciate it, however, the next time please follow these guidelines when filling out an infobox. there is a space provided underneath each category which is where you fill out the information. Like so:

Still not following my proper infobox fillout regulations

Please refer to the above post for how to fill out the infoboxes properly. As much as we appreciate your contributions, other user would also like to work on other pages instead of cleaning up after you. Please be considerate. Red_marquis 9:29 pm, 30 January 2007 (UTC)
