Thanks == Formatting ==Some formatting things to be aware of: 1) No need to put city names in bold except for your contributions on Canada, but please don't write in the very first person as you did in line of the article (see what I've done to [[AlbertaRegina]] ("Other people I have talked to), have had trouble with 2) the highway number goes at the Service Station in ''end'' of the pastsubheading under ''Hitching out'', but I have notthe beginning."[[User:CRCulver|CRCulver]] ([[User talk:CRCulver|talk]]) 11:55, 17 June 2014 (CEST) No need to start off an article with a section heading '''About'''. On The initial paragraph of a community-edited forum like a wiki, it is not clear who "I" Hitchwiki article isindependent of any section. Write in the third person and try to keep your advice generalized. Thanks![[User:CRCulver|CRCulver]] ([[User talk:CRCulver|talk]]) 21:04, 24 June 2014 (CEST)

I certainly have no intention of editing other people's user pages. I'm very new at this, so I have been looking for examples of how to format. Clearly, I've been looking in the wrong places, and it wont happen again.

: Have a look at [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Introduction_2 Wikipedia]. Hitchwiki runs the same software, so editing is the same. And you can always experiment in your own [http://hitchwiki.org/en/index.php?title=User_talk:Fish_Soup/sandbox&action=edit sandbox] ;) [[User:Prino|Prino]]<small><sup>[http://hitchwiki.org/prino/ blog], [[User talk:Prino|talk]]</sup></small> 20:25, 10 June 2014 (CEST)

== First Person ==
Thanks for your contributions on Canada, but please don't write in first person as you did in [[Alberta]] ("Other people I have talked to, have had trouble with the Service Station in the past, but I have not."). On a community-edited forum like a wiki, it is not clear who "I" is. Write in the third person and try to keep your advice generalized. Thanks!
