User:YellowAries2010

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hello. I am YellowAries2010. I live in my native Western USA. I have also lived in New England, the South, and the Mid-Atlantic regions of the  United States. I modify a wide variety of articles, usually just attempting to delete errors in spelling, syntax, grammar, punctuation and the like.

I follow soccer and gymnastics. This includes college, pro, and otherwise. I also have a renewed interest in motorsports, mainly IndyCar, NASCAR Cup Series and IMSA SportsCar Championship. However, my edits, which can be seen here, reflect a wide and random array of subject matter. My main broad editing interests include, but are not limited to, sports, news, and music.

More will be added as needed, especially as my knowledge of formatting increases.

This is the page for the user formerly known as YellowAries. I neglected to provide an email address for that page, and was eventually locked out by accident. I would delete that page if I knew how.

Tip of the day...
The lead section

The lead section is an essential summary of an article, located above the first heading.

In the source text (the text in the edit window), a heading looks like this:

== This is a heading ==

The lead section is a very important part of every article. The length should correspond to the overall length of the article: an article of 50,000 characters might well have a three paragraph lead, while one of 15,000 or less should limit itself to one or two paragraphs. The text should give a good overview of the article, but it should also get the reader hooked and interested in learning more. Take a look at some featured articles for inspiration.

It is often a good idea to align a representative image with the lead by placing [[File:Filename.jpg|thumb|caption]] just before the first heading. (Filename is the name of the desired file and caption is a description of the image).
