The user page had not been vandalised; it was requested by the user according to this request and this edit summary . As the user has not returned (and is currently blocked from editing, as a result of using a shared IP address also used by a vandal), I've undone your edit. —Snigbrook 20:25, 23 January 2009 (UTC)[ reply ]
It's the user's page, he wanted it blanked and because he had been blocked he had to request it from another user. —Snigbrook 20:47, 23 January 2009 (UTC)[ reply ]
Very nice -- thanks for that. One comment, though (before someone mentions it): "users" in this case is possessive and takes an apostrophe. --Michael K. Smith (talk ) 22:04, 31 January 2009 (UTC)[ reply ]

Its not so much something you can join, there is no step by step guide. All any of us can do is keep an eye on Category:Wikipedians looking for help and try your best to answer any questions people may have--Jac 16888 Talk 13:48, 9 May 2009 (UTC)[ reply ]
(e/c ) There is no formal "joining" of the helpme function. Rather, users who want to participate either monitor Helpme-nq
}} , which addresses those users who place {{helpme}} on their talk page but fail to ask a question (this is not uncommon for whatever reason). Cheers.--

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did with this edit to the page No Vacancy (film) . Such edits constitute vandalism and are reverted . Please do not continue to make unconstructive edits to pages; use the sandbox for testing. Thank you. Zvika (talk ) 17:57, 4 June 2009 (UTC)[ reply ]
File Copyright problem
Thanks for uploading File:American shaolin2.jpg . I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, their copyright should also be acknowledged.
If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link . Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged , as described on
]
Thanks for adding the source! As its a DVD cover, it is non-free; I've removed the [2] CC-BY-SA and GFDL tags and added a fair use tag instead. —SpaceFlight89 18:43, 17 September 2009 (UTC)[ reply ]

SaiyanEmperor2008 (talk) (Contribs) 15:48, 18 September 2009 (UTC)[ reply ]
Take a look at WP:CITE
for full deatils. In brief, though, you cite a source by using <ref> tags:
eg. This is some article text.<ref> [http://www.example.com Example reference] </ref> .
Use a {{reflist}} template at the bottom of the page (under the references header) to make the reference appear as a footnote. (The reflist template will probably be there already, so you won't need to add it.) ∙ AJCham talk 16:21, 18 September 2009 (UTC)[ reply ]

Use another {{helpme}} here; or
