1- a litte more wiser... is wrong! As far as wise is one syllable you must say: wiser not more wiser!!
2- thanks you is wrong you must say thank you!
3- I glad is wrong : I'm glad
4- please tell me what are they

In some contexts are they is the only correct word order. In this context, however, they are is the usual arrangement.
