Welcome!

Hello, Rosiehannah, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created, such as Girls' Day Out Show, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines, and may not be retained.

The article Girls' Day Out Show has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

No indication that the subject meets the notability guidelines for inclusion. No reliable references to establish third-party coverage.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. §FreeRangeFrog 19:02, 16 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]


NEW MESSAGE

Hello! Thanks for the heads up. I am still learning but have sought help and advice from fellow wiki experts and have heavily revised the article. Please give me some feedback and let me know if this is okay now. Thank you very much. Rosiehannah (talk) 16:05, 19 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Definition of minor edits

I notice that most of your edits are marked as minor, but I think you need to read Help:Minor edit as I do not believe that many of your edits satisfy that definition. - David Biddulph (talk) 12:56, 19 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Oh great, thank you so much for helping. I was a little wary of what exactly is classed as a minor edit so this link was very helpful. Thanks again! Rosiehannah (talk) 13:05, 19 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The references you added seem to support the notability of this event. I see multiple third-party references to it, so you should be OK. What you need now is to fix it up a bit. See WP:MOS and look at other similar articles to get an idea about the tone and structure you need to follow. I also recommend heading over to the Teahouse for help from other editors. However, bad layout is not grounds for deletion or anything like that, it's just the idea that we should strive to do do quality work for the encyclopedia. Cheers. §FreeRangeFrog 21:18, 20 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Absolutely, I agree with that. I looked to Clothes Show Live for inspiration as it is a similar concept yet note that it does need tidying up so hopefully with a little more guidance and help my first ever contribution should be OK. Do you have any particular suggestions? Thanks again Rosiehannah (talk) 09:24, 21 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Aligning a table

I'm trying to align the table on the Girls' Day Out Show page so it's on the right at the top -but to no avail. Anyone help? Rosiehannah (talk) 10:16, 21 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

You said above that you looked to Clothes Show Live for inspiration, so the easy option is to use Template:Infobox Convention as that article does. - David Biddulph (talk) 10:23, 21 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Ofcourse! I was simply creating a table with the available icon above, when I needed to be creating an infobox. Great. Thank you. Rosiehannah (talk) 10:26, 21 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The numbers at the side of each contribution

Can anybody tell me what the numbers mean at the side of each contribution. For example: Moved spacing (+27) Removed table (-90) ? Rosiehannah (talk) 11:44, 21 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

27 bytes (or characters) added; 90 removed. But it sometimes gets its calculations wrong. - David Biddulph (talk) 11:54, 21 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
See Help:User contributions & Wikipedia:Added or removed characters. - David Biddulph (talk) 11:56, 21 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
