Creating new edo pages

Please remember to add a link in the EDO page when you create new edo pages. I see you've created a couple of empty edo pages. You have anything coming up to the edos you created pages for? FloraC (talk) 13:22, 14 December 2024 (UTC)

MisterShafXen, thank you for your efforts to improve the wiki.
If you have been creating pages from the “wanted pages” list, it may be best to stop doing that, and to instead work on adding more content to the already-existing pages in Category:Stubs.
I have recently added a little blurb to Xenharmonic Wiki:Conventions explaining why “wanted pages” can be misleading and what other things to do instead.
I want to reiterate that I am thankful for your efforts and appreciative that you are here. I’m just trying to help you put your enthusiasm and good will to the best use.
Kind regards,

Budjarn has a great point. So far you've created a bunch of edo pages with only infoboxes. We all wonder what you have to say about those tunings, but if you don't have anything to say yet, I'd like to ask you to do us a favor to stop creating new pages for now cuz we don't have many volunteers to fill them with real contents.

Any chance we'll have a talk? FloraC (talk) 19:25, 17 December 2024 (UTC)

Sure! MisterShafXen (talk) 16:54, 7 January 2025 (UTC)

To create an infobox

To create an infobox with the visual editor, find insert on the same line as the save changes button. Click inserttemplate. Enter Infobox Interval in the text box (if it's an interval page), and click insert. To create an infobox in the source editor, simply enter {{Infobox Interval}}. You may use the SandBox page to experiment with editing. FloraC (talk) 17:00, 15 January 2025 (UTC)

It doesn’t show me the insert thing, I don’t know why. MisterShafXen (talk) 13:14, 16 January 2025 (UTC)

Here are screenshots of the process in the visual editor.

As Flora said, to experiment with editing, please use the page SandBox.

Now I understand… I am using mobile. MisterShafXen (talk) 12:45, 23 January 2025 (UTC)

Uploading pictures

You pictures aren't properly rotated, and it's generally not great to have to click a link to see it. Why not typing them down in plain text? FloraC (talk) 14:23, 17 January 2025 (UTC)

I’ve tried putting it in plain text. Someone else suggested putting pictures instead. I can’t seem to rotate it properly, it’s so annoying. MisterShafXen (talk) 14:41, 17 January 2025 (UTC)

Notice

I received many complaints about your conduct on this wiki. Your contributions have been considered unhelpful due to a massive lack of context. We asked you to provide context to your notation to various edos like what purpose they served and what method was used. There's still no answers. I think in general you can do us a favor by using your user namespace (pages of the form User:MisterShafXen/[Title]) more. The main namespace isn't where you put your idiosyncratic stuff without explanation. More specifically we ask you to

  • not create new equal tuning pages and interval pages until you have some substantial human-made contents (not machine-generated contents) to add.
  • not upload handwritten pictures.
    • get some digital formatting tools.
  • keep your notation solutions to your user space.

Finally, if you add links, pls add them in the proper section. Don't just carelessly put it in the intro. FloraC (talk) 20:50, 1 February 2025 (UTC)

Sure! I’m still learning… I will be putting in my reasoning for my notation in the next few days. MisterShafXen (talk) 18:47, 3 February 2025 (UTC)
