== Re: Advice Needed == |
|||
I see that you have already gotten a reply from [[User:K6ka|K6ka]], so I guess the only thing I can say more is to [[The Sims Wiki:Be bold|be bold]] in making edits and ask if there is anything that you don't know how to do. -- [[User:Icemandeaf|Icemandeaf]] ([[User talk:Icemandeaf|talk]]) 20:42, July 9, 2015 (UTC) |

- Thank you so much for your reply. I really appreciate it. I'll definitely be more bold, and will ask if I need help. I've already signed up for the adoption system, so I'll hopefully get help that way. Thank you again so much.

== Adoption == |
|||
I have decided that I will go ahead and adopt you, so that you can ask me questions. Although from what I have seen, it doesn't look like you need much help. If you would like to accept me adopting you, you can use this template on your user page: {{t|User adopted|Icemandeaf}} -- [[User:Icemandeaf|Icemandeaf]] ([[User talk:Icemandeaf|talk]]) 01:34, July 12, 2015 (UTC) |

:True, templates can be a little tricky at times (like I noticed you quickly found out just now with the {{t|User adopted}} template. I have found that using preview helps catch many mistakes (although not all). -- [[User:Icemandeaf|Icemandeaf]] ([[User talk:Icemandeaf|talk]]) 16:41, July 12, 2015 (UTC) |

== Re: Question == |
|||
That is fine. I did it all the time when I was first learning things myself. If you are making it your own page with your own information, but getting a template from someone else's page, then you aren't in any trouble. The only time you would be in trouble would be if you were to impersonate someone else. |
|||
As far as using American English rather than British English, the Wiki generally has a policy of using American English just because that is where the game comes from. So if you were to change neighbourhood to neighborhood, that would be perfectly acceptable. |

BTW, I noticed that you tried to do an indentation for a talk page. This is actually common practice, but I will teach you how it is usually done. It is a lot easier. ;-) If you are using the source view, a colon (:) at the beginning of the line is one indentation. Having multiple colons at the beginning of the line (i.e. ::) will do multiple indentations. If you are in the visual view, you just have to using the "increase indent" button for the same effect. -- [[User:Icemandeaf|Icemandeaf]] ([[User talk:Icemandeaf|talk]]) 17:54, July 14, 2015 (UTC) |
