:Well, for instance take this code here:
{{userbox|border=#FF0000|mainbkgd=#FF5555|codebkgd=#FF0000|codecolor=#000000|code=Friends|msg=This user is friends with (Insert Name Here)}}

And then replace (Insert Name Here) with your username. Then put it on my talk page so I can put it in my userpage. And the code I gave you earlier, put it on your userpage. You might want to read the [[MarioWiki:Userboxes|userbox page]] for more info. You can also replace the left side with an image (if you want). After that, we are friends!

Well I suppose that is going to be an issue because I don't know how to make a user page XD.
:What part confuses you? I can guide you for a bit, especially if you're new to wikitml. But first, to create a userpage, you have to be [[MarioWiki:Autoconfirmed users|autoconfirmed]]. Once you're done, you can create your userpage. I hihgly suggest contributing to mainspace articles (you can click on the Random Page button the sidebar under "navigation") and check for minor issues like grammar errors, lowercasing "Names in Other Languages" to "Names in other languages", cleaning up bad writing, and more. Even minor edits count! To get familiar wit wikitml, you can play around in our [[MarioWiki:Sandbox|sandbox]], especially if you're planning on big-scale edits.
:Oh, and the "show preview" button is good. It's best to make edits as few times as possible, and the button helps reduce the amount to make it easier for other editors to review your edits. But if you have to make multiple edits because of mistakes you repeatedly catch, that's okay too.
:It's understandable that there's quite some policy around here, and it does take time getting familiar with it, but if you have any questions or uncertainties with your edits, don't hesitate to ask me or any other experienced users around here. {{User:Mario/sig}} 18:53, 9 June 2015 (EDT)
@Mario
Thanks, I am really inexperienced at this. So far I only know how to do the basic of responding and changing ''basic'' text on wiki articles. The problem however is that I am so inexperienced at editing that if I were to ask you how to do everything it would take you all day :p. I couldn't possibly let you go through that painful experience. Is there a list of basic commands so I can learn how to majorly edit articles including my own? :) {{User|Thenintendostooge}}
:[[Help:Contents|The help]] contents provided in both the welcome text and in the link might be a good starting point. But first thing is first, what do you want to do? If you want to edit an article, what's making you confused and stuck? But even changing basic text is good starting point; as I said, you can still fix grammar errors and correct header titles by editing only the words. Just give me one aspect of wiki editing that looks confusing to you, and we'll start from there, okay? One step at a time. {{User:Mario/sig}} 19:06, 9 June 2015 (EDT)
Thank you so much :). You are so sweet. I was wondering, how do I create my own web page first?
What do I put in it to make my page exist?
:You put any text you like in the page. Then, you can save the page and your page will be created. Simple. You can always edit it later so don't worry too much about how it looks after you save it. {{User:Mario/sig}} 19:43, 9 June 2015 (EDT)
Awesome. Now I just need to learn how to do those complex boxes and how to put pictures where I want them to.
