Hi, RobinTh. Welcome to the Central Wikicity! I hope you enjoy it "here". -- Another Robin 23:32, 27 Jul 2005 (UTC)

Thank you --Robin--
Thanks for your greeting. I guess I've many jobs to do on http://thqn.wikicities.com and I would ask for your help sometime... RobinTh 11:36, 30 Jul 2005 (UTC)


 * Sure. Let me know how I can help.  --Robin 21:47, 1 Aug 2005 (UTC)

Creating pages and using templates
See my replies at http://www.wikicities.com/wiki/Talk:Community_portal#How_can_I_add_new_contents and the paragraph below it.

And now, having seen your "thqn", I suggest you
 * 1) Edit your mainpage so as to create links to any word or phrase that might be a good article name.
 * 2) Add a link Help:Contents (but use a Thai word for "Contents" if you like). That can contain links to all sorts of "help" pages, both on "thqn" and (with several of them called by the same name Help:Contents ) on Central Wikicity and on other MediaWiki sites. Redirect your "Help" button to that page, maybe, or at least add a link to it from the page you reach when you hit "Help" on the sidebar.

Me again, replying to your message on my talk page that included this: "when I use Help:Contents as you suggested, it always link to http://thqn.wikicities.com not go to help on http://www.wikicities.com and many of internal links within Wikicities always be like that!"

That's where those links should go (so that your readers stay in your site as long as possible).

The ThQN Help:Contents (or Help:whateveryoucallit) page will contain (in Thai) whatever you and other users want to put there, which can include links to other sites such as the Central Wikicities page ( wikicities:Help:Contents ) for additional help, for any users who do not find enough on your help page (which is very likely in the early days when you have not written much on it). For an example of a simple "editing" help with links to other sites, see http://mi.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Community_Portal, the section on "How to edit". (I wrote that, so you may copy it all as a starter without further acknowledgment; but you will need to change some of the links)

It is likely that the Thai Wikipedia has a lot of translations of "help" pages that will be useful for thqn. You are already registered on it, so have a look around. You might find it useful to link your readers to those pages as well as (or instead of) the Central Wikicities English if they deal with the same things. When your "help" pages are developing, you may be able to copy paragraphs from Wikipedia (with the proper acknowledgment - see lotr:Template_talk:EnWP).

Please come back for more ideas whenever you like! But try some of the Thai Wikipedia people too.

:thqn closed?
อ่าว, เดี๋ยวสิครับ, ไม่ต้องถึงกับปิดเวปก็ได้ครับ (ใจร้อนจัง -_-'). จริงๆ ก็แค่ลบเนื้อหาที่ขัดแย้งกับ GFDL ออกไปก็ได้นี่ครับ, เนื้อหาที่เขียนขึ้นเอง (และอื่นๆ ที่ไม่ได้ขัดกับ GFDL) ก็ยังเป็นประโยชน์อยู่มากนะครับ, ผมว่า. ปิดไปก็น่าเสียดายแย่เลย, อุตส่าห์หวังว่าจะให้ wikicities แพร่หลายในหมู่คนไทยซะหน่อย. -- (อานนท์) Ans 08:28, 2 Sep 2005 (UTC)
