Happy editing! ~Kvng (talk) 14:34, 25 June 2024 (UTC)

Thanks Kvng!

I'll check out your tips. I used to do a lot of Wikipedia editing, but then Wikipedia banned all all the people on T-Mobile, and since I don't do social media I could not get back on or even tell anybody my problem. Finally I was able to use one of Wiki's Wi-Fi workarounds so I guess I'm back on temporarily until this registration expires. So I just need to touch base every few weeks to keep it active I guess. I'm not sure why it expired previously or what the rules are. Seems there have been some philosophical changes around here.

Anyway now I see that the editing functions have changed all around and I feel quite lost. For example I just tried to add a comment to a talk page and that opened up to a few lines of HTML code and nothing else. <Br> I just added an HTML break code let's see if that works or it prints out literally.

I guess I'm using this as a sandbox right now. At the moment I'm not interested in reading a bunch of directions just to leave a suggestion on a talk page, that could take hours and then I would forget it next time I wanted to use it. But I'm sure eventually something will pull me in.

Welcome back! As far as I know, user accounts don't expire. It may be that the VisualEditor is now the default for new users and this may be causing some of your confusion. ~Kvng (talk) 20:01, 17 July 2024 (UTC)
