Personal Page
If you are a real person here at AboutUs. Meaning you are using your real name/ identity, then we warmly welcome you into the main namespace of the wiki. If you choose to keep a pseudonym, then please keep it in the User: namespace.
What is a Personal Page?
A personal page is a place for you to tell the rest of the AboutUs community about yourself, the person. (If you'd like to talk about your website do so on its domain page.)
You can visit and edit your own personal page by logging in and clicking your name at the top right of the site.
The Ideal Personal Page May Include...
- Real Name
- A Portrait/Photo
- Location (your city, state, region, or country...)
- Age
- Interests
- Contact information (through talk page, email, phone?)
- Web presence (links to your web sites, social networking, etc.)
- Category tags for organization and self-badging (e.g., Category:ActiveMember)
- People you are affiliated with
- Scratch pad (pages you're editing, things you're working on)
Example Personal Pages
Many people at AboutUs has developed personal pages themselves! Here are a few examples. It is likely if you need help with your personal page any AboutUs community member would be honored to help.
