Welcome!
By the way, I've compiled a list of tips for New Wikians. To see them, click "Expand" on the right side of the box below.
New Wikian Tips |

These tips were written by Bigpuppy and transcluded from this page. The original version was written for Dressygirl, but now they are quite different. Thanks to jvvg and Kenny2scratch for helping me touch it up. I originally wrote the indenting instructions for Ski-, but I've changed them a lot for these tips. |
Have fun on the Scratch Wiki, and good luck editing!

PraCoco (talk | contribs) 08:23, 20 January 2021 (UTC)- The issue was you created it in mainspace instead of userspace. I see you have now created User:PraCoco/Signature, so I deleted the mainspace.

I'm not able to change my signature!
Hi there if you are seeing this can you tell me if my signature is any different? • Talk • Contributions 08:31, 20 January 2021 (UTC)
- You can change your signature using preferences, I think. There's a guide to customized signatures here.

Your signature
Custom signatures are supposed to have the user's username in it, with a link to their userpage. At the time of writing, it is not in your signature.

Please don't DEcategorize pages
Hi, in your edit here you removed the category from your file. Please don't remove categories from pages unless they don't fit the page. In this case, the file is an image for your userpage, and thus does belong to Category:Users' Images.
Additionally, you didn't compress the file before uploading it; and not only that, when my bot did so for you, it got warned by another bot because the other bot saw the category-less current contents of the page after my bot's edit and thought my bot had created the page anew without categories.
Why did you remove the category, anyway? And the description of the file?
I hope I don't come across as rude, but I hope it's clear how angry I am about this.
kenny2scratch Talk Contribs Directory 09:39, 10 February 2021 (UTC)
- Oh, wait, I'm so sorry. I'll do it. {I don't consider this mean, after all, you're just trying to tell me, aren't you?} I'll categorize them.
PraCoco (talk | contribs) 09:43, 10 February 2021 (UTC)- I've added the category back for you, don't bother with that. I've calmed down a bit now. Sorry for the angry message. I can see you were trying to remove "metadata" (though what kind of metadata you meant, I have no idea).
- I see above that you want the files deleted. I'll do that.
kenny2scratch Talk Contribs Directory 09:45, 10 February 2021 (UTC)- Thank you so much! It was my fault, I couldn't remove the metadata {the thing about the file at the bottom of the page, like you know, author and stuff? That's why I was trying to remove it. I wasn't using my account, so...}Thanks once again!
PraCoco (talk | contribs) 09:48, 10 February 2021 (UTC)

kenny2scratch Talk Contribs Directory 09:49, 10 February 2021 (UTC)

Oh, it was stored in the image file itself. Okay, gotcha. There are sites online that you can use to strip metadata from images. You can just search for them. Thanks for clarifying.

I renamed your image
Hi PraCoco,
Just a heads up I renamed your image Problems.png to PraCoco Signature Problems.PNG since the original had a generic title. This was to avoid confusion, and I have already updated your talk page message to Bigpuppy that references it, so no action is needed on your part. In the future please avoid uploading images with very generic filenames to avoid confusion. Thanks!

Please include your username in your signature
Hi,
Please make sure you include your username (and not just a link to your userpage) in your signature so that we can easily see who posted your messages. If you just replace the text for your userpage link from "Userpage" to "PraCoco" you will be fine.
jvvg (talk | contribs) 16:31, 22 February 2021 (UTC)
- Um, okay, thanks.

Please link to the account request instructions and not straight to the request form
Hi,
On the Scratch Wiki Contributors studio when someone asked how to join the link, you linked straight to the account request form. In the future, please link to the account request instructions (shortcut S:CONTRIB) to ensure that they know what to put in their request. Thank you!
jvvg (talk | contribs) 02:16, 23 February 2021 (UTC)

Please use the full signature
Hi, just noticing that you signed a couple of posts without the timestamp recently. Remember to use four tildas (~~~~) which produces the full signature, and not just three (~~~) which only produces the name. (You can amend your previous posts and add the timestamp by using ~~~~~ which produces just the timestamp.) Thanks!

What's wrong with the curated projects?
- Hi there, if you're going through my talk page, I just wanted to know, what's gone wrong with curated projects? They aren't showing up! Is it a glitch with me or something else?
- • PraCoco • Talk • Contributions 03:10, 26 February 2021 (UTC)
- The row isn't showing up for me either. My guess is that there is either a technical glitch or an issue with the current curator. My guess is they're not discontinuing the curator program entirely since 1. they'd give an announcement and 2. not do that in the middle of a shift. If we can find a reason, we should document that on the Wiki.
jvvg (talk | contribs) 16:14, 26 February 2021 (UTC)- Looks like there is a topic about this, so it's widespread. Hopefully the ST will give an explanation.

I moved (renamed) your image
Hi there!
Thank you for your contributions to the wiki! I just wanted to let you know that I moved the image you recently uploaded from File:ProfilePicture.png to File:PraCocoProfilePicture.png so it has a more descriptive filename, as per Scratch Wiki:Userspace#User Images. Thank you for understanding!
bigpuppy talk ▪︎ contribs 14:59, 21 July 2021 (UTC)
- Sure, thanks. I just understood why it wasn't showing up, I was just saying "ProfilePicture.png"
- Anyways, thanks a lot!

Your image, File:SiggyForPraCoco.png
Hi, I just wanted to let you know that I changed the category of the image above from Category:Other Images to Category:Users' Logos since it's more specific. Thanks!
