New contribution: Biography of Italian mathematician Tortolini

Please read my new article and contribute suggestions. Rachel Tortolini (talk) 19:09, 6 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

You are free to create the article yourself. Please have a look at WP:FIRST. Gary King (talk) 23:59, 13 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

{{helpme}} I guess I need to know what your equivalent of a publish button is. I don't understand how to get the article from my user space to general distribution as a searchable article. Rachel Tortolini (talk) 01:26, 19 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Just create the article - search for it, then in the search results page click the red link at the top with the article's name. That will bring up an edit window. Paste your own article from your user space (assuming you are the only contributor) and then put it in the edit box and click 'save'. The link Gary King gave you is helpful, you should read it again. There is no 'publish button' that makes an article in your userspace part of the encyclopedia. --Golbez (talk) 01:53, 19 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

{{helpme}} Okay, I did it. Thank you and thanks to Gary. One last help and I won't bother you anymore. The page title came out with lower cases on the last name instead of the usual capitalization of "Tortolini." How can that be fixed?Rachel Tortolini (talk) 01:30, 20 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

You can move the page to proper capitalization. –xeno (talk) 01:35, 20 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
