Goh, welcome to the wiki! Please leave a note on my Talk page if you have any questions. Pat Palmer (talk) 05:59, 6 May 2023 (CDT)
Creating new pages
The notice at the top of NCS Group was there because it invoked the {{subpages}} template at the top, while no one had yet created the Template:NCS Group/Metadata (the so-called "metadata file") for it. When you create a new article, you can just remove {{subpages}} from the top until I get around to create the metadata for you, or you can learn to create the metadata yourself. You can read more about subpages at CZ:Subpages. Pat Palmer (talk) 07:47, 9 May 2023 (CDT)
Please sign comments on Talk/Discussion pages
If you can please add four tilde's ~~~~ at the end of your comments on Talk pages, that will leave your signature and a time stamp when you save the page. Pat Palmer (talk) 07:49, 9 May 2023 (CDT)
Dash style matters; plus, I renamed a page you created
I have moved India–Singapore Comprehensive Economic Cooperation Agreement to India-Singapore Comprehensive Economic Cooperation Agreement (2005). In English, we do NOT use the long dash that you used (–); instead, we use a short dash (-). Although they look similar, use of the long dash messes up search and linking. Also, I felt the article should have a year after it, as sometime in the future, there could be another such agreement. I left a redirect in place, for now, for the long dash name lacking date.

- Hi, thank you very much for helping. I am sorry for the mistake with using dash. Goh Kok Keong (talk) 09:57, 25 June 2024 (CDT)
- No problem. Who knew? And note how I used colons to indent our comments (Edit to see how). Pat Palmer (talk) 12:30, 25 June 2024 (CDT)
Renamed Michael Palmer (politician)
Hi there, Because Michael Palmer is such a common-seeming name, I took the precaution of moving the article to Michael Palmer (Singapore politician). Pat Palmer (talk) 08:25, 18 July 2024 (CDT)
- Hi there, thanks a lot for helping.--Goh Kok Keong (talk) 12:39, 20 July 2024 (CDT)
- My pleasure. I'm glad to see you writing in here. Note how I added a colon in front of your comment to indent it, and two in front of mine to indent even more. Pat Palmer (talk) 14:24, 20 July 2024 (CDT)
