If you'd like a continuous refill reminder, the floating cup of coffee can be put in place by using this code: {{User:Yworo/havacuppa}}

Tip of the moment... Subject bar template The Subject bar template is intended to be placed at the end of an article, after the References or External links and before any navboxes and categories. It offers a variant to several floating box templates that link to books, portals, and Wikipedia's sister projects but that typically cause formatting issues because of their size and alignment. The template's documentation contains several examples where links to books, portals and sister projects are shown in various combinations, all within the one Subject bar template. It offers an alternative to the multiple variations of portal templates that may appear in the article's "See also" section. Prior tip – Tips library – Next tip Become a Wikipedia tipster To add this auto-randomizing template to your user page, use {{totd-random}}

The Tip of the Day project provides a different piece of advice for using Wikipedia every day. Like the Picture of the Day, you can include it on your userpage by adding {{totd}} somewhere (at the top of your talk page is a good place for it). The randomized version (displayed above) is {{totd-random}}, and shows a different tip each time it is displayed on your screen. Other formats for the TOTD exist, such as the more compact {{totd3}}, or you can make your own by including {{Wikipedia:Tip of the day/{{CURRENTMONTHNAME}} {{CURRENTDAY}}, {{CURRENTYEAR}}}} on your userpage (which includes the raw text, without any formatting) and then enclose it in your own formatting. To float the tip of the day to the right of content (as it is displayed here), place this code where you want the tip to show up: {{right|{{totd3}}}}.

A spin off of the tip of the day, this is another template that provides useful instruction a little at a time.

This is an example of a Barnometer, to display the barnstars you've received in a humorous timescale. You can check the coding and then tweak it according to your own needs. Hold your mouse pointer over each barnstar to read each greeting.

There's a motto of the day project, called, you guessed it: Wikipedia:Motto of the day. To use it, just place {{Motd}} on your user page!

Here's what it looks like:

Today's motto...
→ When forces of oppression come to maintain themselves in power against established law, peace is considered already broken.

Nominate one today!

There is a huge selection of pictures on Wikipedia and its sister site Wikimedia Commons. Pictures can be a powerful way to express yourself...

Pictures can be found all over Wikipedia, but it can be very time-consuming to hunt for them in the encyclopedia's articles. Another option is to browse Wikipedia's collections...

Some images can be found in the categorical index, at:

• Category:Wikipedia images
• Category:Wikipedia featured pictures

But most of the images used on Wikipedia are kept at:

• Wikimedia Commons (plus a whole lot more)

Featured pictures can also be found in the picture of the day archive:

A monthly archive of Wikipedia's featured pictures

There is usually a long delay before a featured picture is scheduled into the picture of the day system, so two other places to look for featured pictures are:

• Wikipedia:Featured pictures
• Featured picture thumbnails

The Picture of the Day, which changes daily, is currently displayed every day on the Main Page, and you can use it to decorate your userpage as well...

Here's what the various picture of the day templates look like. To place them on your user page, include the corresponding double-curly bracket code, and the picture will be displayed automagically:

{{pic of the day}}

Picture of the day

The fork-tailed flycatcher (Tyrannus savana) is a bird in the family Tyrannidae, the tyrant flycatchers. Named after their distinguishably long, forked tails, particularly in males, fork-tailed flycatchers are seen in shrubland, savanna, lightly forested and grassland areas, from southern Mexico south to Argentina. They tend to build their cup nests in similar habitats to their hunting grounds (riparian forests and grasslands). Males perform aerial courtship displays to impress females involving swirling somersaults, twists, and flips, all partnered with their buzzing calls. These courtship displays utilise the long tail feathers. This male fork-tailed flycatcher of the subspecies T. s. monachus was photographed in Cayo District, Belize, demonstrating its characteristic forked tail while in flight.Photograph credit: Charles J.

If you'd rather have it without the text (to make it smaller), you can use {{Wikipedia:POTD/{{CURRENTMONTHNAME}}_{{CURRENTDAY}},_{{CURRENTYEAR}} instead.

To display the alternate picture of the day from the no-restrictions anybody-can-add-a-pic-right-now picture project, use {{rpotd}}, which displays this:

Unlike PotD, these pictures are not featured. You can use {{rpotd}} to add the daily random picture to your userpage.

To display the alternate cool random picture of the day from User:FormalDude/Contributions/Templates/Random Cool Picture Generator, use {{User:FormalDude/Contributions/Templates/Random Cool Picture Generator}}, which displays this:

NASA's Cassini spacecraft slipped into Saturn's shadow and turned to image the planet, seven of its moons, its inner rings -- and, in the background, our home planet, Earth.

You can also display the Commons Picture of the Day, which is different from the featured picture displayed on the main page, with {{WP:Wikimedia Commons/POTD}}. Which shows this:

Heavy snowfall brought by Storm Filomena hit Spain in January 2021, and persisted on the ground for many days across much of the country, as this Copernicus Sentinel-3 satellite image shows.
