User:CrazyBuilder

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hi, I'm CrazyBuilder from England. I'm new to editing Wikipedia pages (as of July 2024) and intend to stay around.

I have a wide range of interests, from mathematics to medicine, science to sport, history to geography and more. However, I do not have any real expertise in anything in particular.

I know HTML (hypertext markup language) well, mainly version 5, CSS (cascading style sheets) tolerably well, and I am interested in making websites accessible. I also have some experience in copy-editing.

I'm slowly understanding how Wikipedia works and how to mark up the pages. So far, so good.

Please correct me

Notes

  • "Presently acceptable sources are tv guide, rotten tomatoes, comedy guide."

    For more guidance, see Wikipedia:Reliable sources/Perennial sources.
  • How do I make CrazyBuilder my signature? Change and save in my Wikipedia:User profile page preferences. (The colours satisfy contrast requirements for WCAG's 2.0 level AA)
  • Here is my updated signature: CrazyBuilder talk 14:56, 27 September 2024 (UTC)
    Alleluia!! That was more of a struggle than expected.
  • I think a bot has corrected the user category template from 'Book' to 'Literature'. Sweet.
  • As a shortcut, one can make link text plural by simply putting an 's' immediately after the closing square bracket. Nice one.
  • When naming a source, remember to put the name in the opening tag. for both the definition and its subsequent use.
  • Tables are complicated to mark up: see Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Accessibility/Data tables tutorial for more details
  • Do not put lines in between list items—this will split the list for screen reader users. See also Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Accessibility#Lists for more details
