Dunnock
The dunnock (Prunella modularis) is a small passerine bird in the accentor family, Prunellidae. It is native to much of temperate Europe and parts of southwest Asia, including the Caucasus, northern Iran and Lebanon, and is also widely distributed in New Zealand after being introduced there in the 19th century. The dunnock inhabits lowland environments such as woodlands, shrubs, hedgerows and gardens, where it usually feeds on the ground. About 14 centimetres (5.5 in) long, it has a streaked brown back and grey head, a fine pointed bill, and produces a thin, tinkling song and a shrill tseep call. Dunnocks build nests low in bushes or conifers and typically lay three to five unspotted blue eggs. Their breeding system is variable, with different combinations of males and females sometimes sharing parental care.Photograph credit: Charles J. Sharp

I have added some features to Wikipedia articles in my edits such as those below:

Tip of the moment...
Article banner templates

New articles are usually created and left in the Draft namespace (or a user's subpage) until they are ready for primetime.

{{Under construction}} and {{In use}} templates are intended for subsequent article tune-ups, and are posted at the article page top.
{{In use}} template is for articles actively undergoing a major edit for a short time to list them in Category:Pages actively undergoing a major edit.
{{Under construction}} is for articles actively undergoing construction to list them in Category:Pages actively undergoing construction.

As the article is developed, {{stub}} templates along with their switches (posted at article bottom) are used for articles still needing additional content.

To add this auto-randomizing template to your user page, use {{totd-random}}

Music Samples

For the music samples I use the free-for-a-while MP3 Magic 2.0 from the great Applian Technologies. You get 7 days to test it out, and only $10 to buy. (Their suite of apps is sweet because it is the best to record intenet radio.) MP3 Magic lets you create 30 second clips that conform to Wikipedia's rules for length. You then use the free, open source Wikipedia application called Audacity to convert your clips to .OGG format for Wikipedia. Select Edit, Preferences, File Format tab, set OGG Export Setup to "0" to create reduced-quality 64 kbps .OGG versions of your clips.

Images

You can also use the paired <gallery>Images: here</gallery> tag to create a image gallery feature or stand-alone image like these from the editing toolbar:

Tables

{{German Language}} The HTML Table code for lyrics are just native HTML tags that Wikipedia accepts, or use the "Insert a table" button on the editing toolbar:

"Our Country"[1]

Written by John Mellencamp

"Well I can stand beside
Ideals I think are right
And I can stand beside
The idea to stand and fight
I do believe
There’s a dream for everyone
This is our country

There’s room enough here
For science to live
And there’s room enough here
For religion to forgive
And try to understand
All the people of this land
This is our country

From the east coast
To the west coast
Down the Dixie Highway
Back home
This is our country

That poverty could be
Just another ugly thing
And bigotry would be
Seen only as obscene
And the ones that run this land
Help the poor and common man
This is our country

 From the east coast

To the west coast
Down the Dixie Highway
Back home
This is our country

The dream is still alive
Some day it will come true
And this country it belongs
To folks like me and you
So let the voice of freedom
Sing out through this land
This is our country

From the east coast
To the west coast
Down the Dixie Highway
Back home
This is our country

From the east coast
To the west coast
Down the Dixie Highway
Back home

This is our country"

Creating "Notes" and references

Creating a References table in Wikipedia is almost as easy as creating a link. Look at the code at the top of the song lyrics sample table to see how to use the paired ref tag, e.g.,

<ref>[http://www.H2G2.com The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy]</ref>

to create the citation[3]. Then add a section near the bottom of the article containing the single,unpaired references tag. You will see that at the bottom of this article in edit mode.

Reusing Notes

Just include the "name" parameter in the ref tag (and don't leave it empty when you reuse it):

<ref name="Brainyquote">[http://www.brainyquote.com/quotes/authors/l/langston_hughes.html Brainyquote.com] - Langston Hughes</ref>

Using {{cite web}} Template

Richie Havens uses open D tuning on the guitar. By fretting all strings it produces a major chord on any position on the neck of the guitar.[6]

Example: Petaluma - Local

The mayor of Petaluma is David Glass,[7] who was formerly the vice mayor, and on the Planning Commission from 1999 until his election as mayor in November 2002[8].

Tips of the Day

How to provide a link to a specific Google Search

Especially on talk pages, and sometimes in External link sections, links to Google searches can be useful. The Wikimedia software that powers Wikipedia lets you make links to Google by including google: as the prefix for the link, like this:

[[google:Tipster]].

Which looks like this:

google:Tipster

Note: It is important not to use spaces in the search. To add more parameters to the search, separate them by a plus sign, +. For a phrase search, use a hyphen (minus sign), -, between each word. E.g. to search for "Tip of the day", use Tip-of-the-day.

To provide a link to a Wikipedia-specific search, include in the google-link +site:en.wikipedia.org (no spaces before or after), like this:

[[google:Tip-of-the-day+site:en.wikipedia.org]].

Which looks like this:

google:Tip-of-the-day+site:en.wikipedia.org

To clean up the link so that only the part you want to show is presented, use the pipe, like this:

[[google:Tipster+site:en.wikipedia.org|"Tip of the day"]]

Which makes it look like this:

"Tip of the day"

Navigate faster using Wikipedia shortcuts

Many of the pages in the Wikipedia namespace have specialized redirects called "shortcuts" that can be entered into the search box on the left side of your screen. Normally these shortcuts start with WP: and then a capitablized abreviation for the page name. Some common shortcuts are: [[WP:]], WP:DEPT, WP:FAQ, WP:FUN, WP:IMAGE, WP:VP, and of course, WP:TIP. A semi-complete list of shortcuts is available at Wikipedia:Shortcuts.

How to create a shortcut

Shortcut class redirects should be tagged with Template:R from shortcut(edit talk links history) so they will auto-categorize in Category:Redirects from shortcut.
All {{R from ...}} templates should be added on the same line as the #redirect [[Pagename]]. templates.

Example: #redirect [[Pagename]] {{R from shortcut}}.
