Have you seen a contribution you think deserves recognition? We don’t see all the great edits around here, so if we’re missing some folks who deserve recognition, share it here! https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1MyOqwjOBCt5MgP08s1zljBSYnWxq1beLRYrfuL_tsSg/viewform

Amazing!:smiley:

Woot, woot!

Great job, everyone!

:smiley:Congrats to the team.:slight_smile:

Congratulations. Great work.

Top jobs all. One littler thing… https://www.wikihow.com/Get-a-Girl-to-Like-You-if-You-Are-Disabled - this article appears not to exist…

^Good catch.:slight_smile:

Great job wikiHowers!

@HumanBeing - If you look at the link in the original post, you will notice that the link transferred to the post did not pick up the portion of the title after the open parentheses. However, if you copy the entire url for the diff into your browser address window, the correct diff should come up. 

Here it is -  wikihow.com/index.php?title=Get-a-Girl-to-Like-You-if-You-Are-Disabled-(for Teenagers)&diff=prev&oldid=19540514

Thanks for the mention Anna!:slight_smile:Great job everyone!

I dunno what I’m doing wrong @Alabaster …I got it in the end from the users contributions list. Here’s a working link if as anyone else is as daft as me! http://www.wikihow.com/Get-a-Girl-to-Like-You-if-You-Are-Disabled-(for-Teenagers)

Hi HB - you are losing the plot!!  here is the link.  Your link doesn’t include the (for - Teenagers) bit in it in blue. 

wikihow.com/Get-a-Girl-to-Like-You-if-You-Are-Disabled-(for-Teenagers

@HumanBeing - I realized that you probably know more about the way links are formed in html than I assumed. If not, I will note that there are two parts to a link as far as a browser is concerned:

  • the text that is displayed
  • the anchor, the active web address which is shown in a post in green if you have not visited the page or blue if you have
    … and… It is important to realize that these two do not necessarily correspond. 

(I found this blurb which gives the details, but is not ultra-clear - http://www.w3schools.com/html/html_links.asp.)

Anyway, what is important is that you noticed a problem and took the time to bring it to @Anna ’s attention and that she knows how to fix it. I’m now thinking you probably knew how to fix too, but simply couldn’t edit her post.)

Thanks for the mention and great job everyone!!!

Good job everyone! Thanks for the mention!
