User talk:C'est la Vie
Welcome![edit | edit source]
Hello C'est la Vie and Welcome to Uncyclopedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like it here and decide to stay.
Useful guides and references for your contributions:
I hope you enjoy the site and being an Uncyclopedian. Always remember to sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~) or use the "sign" button (
) above the edit box. This will automatically produce your name and the date.
If you want to start an article of your own it is usually best to start it within your namespace, for example, [[User:{{subst:BASEPAGENAME}}/Article about stuff]]. If you do this you can edit it at your leisure and move it over into the mainspace when it’s done. To start an article in the mainspace attach this template - {{construction}} to your work, so other Users will know you'll be back to finish it.
Should you need any help, do not hesitate to ask me on my talk page or ask at the Village Dump Forum. You can also add the following: {{help}} to this page along with a message and someone will come along and help you if they can. Additionally, the Uncyclopedian Adopt-a-Noob program is there to bring experienced writers straight to you. Browse our list of available mentors, and leave them a message on their talk page. Once again welcome to the site.--Sycamore (Talk) 19:43, 3 August 2008 (UTC)

- I require a bit of advice. You see, I've been around the site for a while now, but I haven't regestered until... well, a few moments ago. Now that I have an account, I don't know what to do first... (other than vote on VFH, cos the header told me to) C'est la Vie 20:05, 3 August 2008 (UTC)

- Well, it all depends on what you want to do. If you want to write articles, read HTBFANJS, browse a few features, and give it a whirl. You could even write articles in your userspace (i.e. User:C'est la Vie/articlename) if you so desire.
- If you want to review articles, or get your article reviewed, there's pee review just for that.
- If you're looking for a place to vote, you can vote for articles here and for pictures here. Voting is one of the most important things a user can do. It keeps the site running smoothly.
- For maintenance work, you can patrol the recent changes page and browse through the new pages. Use QVFD if an article is just vandalism or a one-liner, or check out the rules behind using {{ICU}} as a tag. Any users blanking pages or cyberbullying? Report them to ban patrol.
- Want me to elaborate on any particular subject? Press 9. – Sir Skullthumper, MD (criticize • writings • critchat) 20:16 Aug 03, 2008
- Ooh, thourough! Many thanks! And no, I believe that's it for now. Merci beaucoup, guys! C'est la Vie 20:21, 3 August 2008 (UTC)
