Welcome to Citizendium

Goh, welcome to the wiki! Please leave a note on my Talk page if you have any questions. Pat Palmer (talk) 05:59, 6 May 2023 (CDT)

Creating new pages

The notice at the top of NCS Group was there because it invoked the {{subpages}} template at the top, while no one had yet created the Template:NCS Group/Metadata (the so-called "metadata file") for it. When you create a new article, you can just remove {{subpages}} from the top until I get around to create the metadata for you, or you can learn to create the metadata yourself. You can read more about subpages at CZ:Subpages. Pat Palmer (talk) 07:47, 9 May 2023 (CDT)

Dash style matters; plus, I renamed a page you created

I have moved India–Singapore Comprehensive Economic Cooperation Agreement to India-Singapore Comprehensive Economic Cooperation Agreement (2005). In English, we do NOT use the long dash that you used (–); instead, we use a short dash (-). Although they look similar, use of the long dash messes up search and linking. Also, I felt the article should have a year after it, as sometime in the future, there could be another such agreement. I left a redirect in place, for now, for the long dash name lacking date.

Hi, thank you very much for helping. I am sorry for the mistake with using dash. Goh Kok Keong (talk) 09:57, 25 June 2024 (CDT)

No problem. Who knew? And note how I used colons to indent our comments (Edit to see how). Pat Palmer (talk) 12:30, 25 June 2024 (CDT)

Renamed Michael Palmer (politician)

Hi there, Because Michael Palmer is such a common-seeming name, I took the precaution of moving the article to Michael Palmer (Singapore politician). Pat Palmer (talk) 08:25, 18 July 2024 (CDT)

Hi there, thanks a lot for helping.--Goh Kok Keong (talk) 12:39, 20 July 2024 (CDT)

My pleasure. I'm glad to see you writing in here. Note how I added a colon in front of your comment to indent it, and two in front of mine to indent even more. Pat Palmer (talk) 14:24, 20 July 2024 (CDT)

Bolding article title

Hi there! I see you've figured out how to create the Metadata page for new articles. That's great, and I appreciate the help. Remember to bold the first occurrence of the article in the article's introduction (and nothing else in an article should be in bold face type). Also, please remember to link to Singapore in the article introductions, and also it's good to link Singapore/Related Articles to your new articles about the city. I've been doing this for you sometimes but will leave it to you in future. Good job on these articles! Pat Palmer (talk) 08:13, 1 August 2024 (CDT)

Hi, thanks a lot for helping. Because sometimes I was too busy, so I put the task of creating the Metadata page aside first.--Goh Kok Keong (talk) 09:25, 1 August 2024 (CDT)

Please consider adding "Summary" information when you edit

Hi there! Thanks for writing in Citizendium. I have a small request. When you save an edit, would you please try to write a few words in the "Summary" before saving your changes? This helps other collaborators when they look at the history of an article, and the summary also shows in Recent Changes. Best regards, Pat Palmer (talk) 10:38, 8 September 2024 (CDT)
