Goodies, tips, and tricks Put Babel boxes on your user page so others know what languages you can speak and indicate your graphic abilities. You can find the files you have uploaded in your Uploads. Please sign your name on Talk pages by typing ~~~~. To link to an image page without embedding the image, type: [[:File:Foo.jpg]], which produces: File:Foo.jpg. You may enable gadgets (custom features) for your account. There are several tools to upload files. Have you edited Wikipedia before? This guide might be useful. Made a mistake? Do you want to have a file renamed or moved? Use the move link and wait for an authorized user to rename it. Do you want to have your recently uploaded picture removed? Tag it as {{speedy|reason here}}. For more information read the deletion guidelines.

Welcome: need some advice?

Hey!

I hope you understand (my) English... Welcome here! Thanks a lot for the category you've created . Are you here for a long time ? What you started with the Misfits helped me and if you want to do again this kind of work here you will be more welcome . I started to sort members of bands by name, as you did, but with adding another category: "Members of ..." (ex: Category:Members of Danzig, sub-cat of Category:Danzig (band) and Category:Musicians by musical group, as you can see we only have 143 sorted there...).

If you agree I can give you some advice to gain time with HotCat or Cat-a-lot, tools made for that. Have a nice day. --LW² \m/ ^{(Lie 2 me ...)} 15:58, 23 November 2016 (UTC)
