== Trying to customize my sig, not working ==

I used the tutorial's template to try and make this "[[User:L3X1|L3X1]] [[User talk:(L3X1)|Complaints Desk]]", except the "Complaints Desk" doesn't link to my talk page. I've been troubleshooting on my talk page through 25 Iterations, and it isn't working. [[User:L3X1|L3X1]] [[User talk:(L3X1)|Complaints Desk]] 16:59, 14 January 2017 (UTC)
:You need to remove the parentheses from around your username in the sig. --[[User:Orangemike|<span style="color:#F80">Orange Mike</span>]] | [[User talk:Orangemike|<span style="color:#FA0">Talk</span>]] 17:10, 14 January 2017 (UTC)

:::Now It works, thanks for helping me :) [[User:L3X1|L3X1]] [[User talk:L3X1|Complaints Desk]] 17:20, 14 January 2017 (UTC)

:::::A wikilink to the page itself like [[Wikipedia:Help desk]] is displayed as bold unlinked text. See [[Help:Self link]]. Users with customized signatures usually just accept this. [[MediaWiki:Signature]] stores the default signature. It adds an anchor <code>#top</code> to signatures on the user's own talk page to avoid the bold selflink feature. It's possible for a customized signature to use similar code and for example insert <code><nowiki>{{#ifeq:{{FULLPAGENAME}}|User talk:L3X1|&#35;top}}</nowiki></code> right after <code>User talk:L3X1</code>.

== How can I add a new page in English? ==

I want to add a English version of the Wikipedia page "Sadaka tasi"...
I tried, but it's difficult. How can I add a new English version of a Turkish wikipedia page?

:Hello. I have answered you at [[WP:Teahouse#Add a new page in different language?]]. Please don't post a question in more than one place. (And yes, it is difficult: I always advise new editors to spend at least a few months improving existing articles before they try creating a new one). --[[User:ColinFine|ColinFine]] ([[User talk:ColinFine|talk]]) 17:57, 14 January 2017 (UTC)

== External Link ==

I am trying to add
* [http://www.survivetheday.org/2017/01/doomsday-prepper-movies.html 127 Hours | Doomsday Prepper Movies]

to The Impossible and The Road as they have been selected as two of the top 5 Doomsday Prepper Movies ... Can you advise ???

== Article name ==

There is an Argentine TV series named "Estocolmo", with no article here yet. However, that word is [[Stockholm]] in Spanish language. Should "Estocolmo" redirect to the city and the TV series named "Estocolmo (TV series)", or should the TV series be named "Estocolmo" and include a hatnote to the city? [[User:Cambalachero|Cambalachero]] ([[User talk:Cambalachero|talk]]) 23:25, 14 January 2017 (UTC)

:What I would do is use Estocolmo for the series and no hatnote for the city because this is not the Spanish Wikipedia. ([[Juan]] doesn't have a hatnote to [[John]], etc.) It could be mentioned in the article's introduction that Estocolmo is Spanish for Stockholm.

== failed edit ==

Hello-

I just edited an article on The Groove Kings/Groove Kings, a band from Montreal, Canada.

The changes were saved, but Wiki will not accept captchas.

What do I do now?
