Jobs I find quite interesting:

working as a criticality tester
working as a fact checker at Wikipedia.

I hate rote learning - actually my brain isn't able to do this. This is why my life relies on Wikipedia.

Wiki geography

{{coor d|57.2796|N|5.7385|W|}}

Looks like that: 57°16′47″N 5°44′19″W / 57.2796°N 5.7385°W / 57.2796; -5.7385. For additional information, consult Wikipedia:WikiProject_Geographical_coordinates

How to find the deletion discussion of an article:
- the awkward way: look in the Deletion log to obtain date and time of a deletion, then look at Wikipedia:Archived delete debates near that time to see which edit regards the unlisting of the page, then view the previous version.
- the probably not always working easier way: directly go to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/ARTICLENAME

Pinyin letters edit

Pinyin letters

āáǎà
ōóǒò
ēéěè
īíǐì
ūúǔù
ǖǘǚǜ
êü

The tone mark is added to the vowel in the syllable that comes first in this sequence: a o e i u ü. For example, ai takes the tone mark on a, and ia also takes the tone mark on a. The only exception is iu which takes the tone mark on u.

Wikitables edit

Wikitables


Tables are awkward

<pre>
{| class="wikitable"
|-
! rowspan="3" colspan="2" | Table
! colspan ="4" | Finals
|-
! colspan="2" | Two chars
! colspan="2" | Foo farce
|-
! a !! b !! c !! d
|-
! rowspan="5" | Initials
! e 
| eon || eton || email || ems
|-
! f
| fritz || fratz || flixx || fluxx
|-
! g
| grid || gred || gerda || great
|-
! h
| hrid || hred || herda || hreat
|-
! i
| irid || ired || ierda || ireat
|}

Turns out to be:

Table		Finals
		Two chars		Foo farce
		a	b	c	d
Initials	e	eon	eton	email	ems
	f	fritz	fratz	flixx	fluxx
	g	grid	gred	gerda	great
	h	hrid	hred	herda	hreat
	i	irid	ired	ierda	ireat

Semantic algorithm on how to put up wikitables

start with

{| class="wikitable"
|-

count the number of total rows and total columns of your table. keep always in mind that the number of columns for each line has to add up with your total number of columns. when adding up, count both the actual entries made with "| string || string2 || string3" (that would make three columns) AND the number of spanning fields made with "| colspan="5" | string" (that would make five columns ... so altogether this makes eight columns.

identify the upperleft field. look at how many y = rows and x = columns it spans if x or y is different from 1 than type

| rowspan="y" colspan="x" | string

where string is the string you want to place in this field. if the first row has more fields, than input

| secondfield || thirdfield || fourthfield

note that this row is a child of your field "string"

to start the next row, type

|-

note that all following lines will be row children of your "string" field until you have reached a number of y rows. after this a number of x columns will start which you have been specifing with rowspan="x"

go on for so until you finished all your rows. note that while you do not need to specify how many rows your table has, the number of columns always has to be the same for each row. this is due the fact that wikitable's syntax works by first demanding a row, than by specifing this line's columns.

end your table with

|}

if you want to highlight a field, put "!" instead of "|" at the beginning of this fields line. to "unlight" the following fields seperate them from the highlighted with a newline. rember that for the atomic field size, you don't need to specify colspan and rowspan.

Merge discussion template edit

Articles created

I propose to merge article A and article B. The reason is that both articles fail to differentiated themselves from each other. 

In case you see good reasons to keep the articles separate, then please

# discuss these reasons here,
# modify both articles in such a way that precise and different definitions are given,
# modify both articles in such a way that both articles explicitly mention each other and show the difference between both terms,
# remove the merge templates from both articles.

Thanks, Abdull
