Welcome to Wikipedia!!!

[edit]
Hello Bartleby007! Welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. If you decide that you need help, check out Wikipedia:Where to ask a question, ask me on my talk page, or place {{helpme}} on your talk page and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Please remember to sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name and the date. You may also push the signature button located above the edit window. Finally, please do your best to always fill in the edit summary field. This is considered an important guideline in Wikipedia. Even a short summary is better than no summary. Below are some recommended guidelines to facilitate your involvement. Happy Editing! -- Kukini 17:51, 19 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Editing Concerns

[edit]
  1. Thank you for experimenting with Wikipedia. Your test worked, and it has been reverted or removed. Please use the sandbox for any other tests you want to do. Take a look at the welcome page if you would like to learn more about contributing to our encyclopedia. Kukini 17:51, 19 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  2. Please do not delete huge swaths of articles with no discussion on the talk page. Kukini 17:53, 19 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Help tag

[edit]

I noticed that you put a help tag on Kukini's talk page. Is there something you need help with? -- Merope Talk 18:37, 19 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

We-ell. The stuff that you removed is information that is cited from reliable sources. It may be opinion, but it's opinion that is documented and from notable people. The best way to introduce balance would be to provide information from other reliable sources that view the man or his work from a different angle. You can also introduce a dispute tag, such as {{POV-check}}, to indicate that you believe the article is not written from a neutral point of view. You can then explain your reasoning on the talk page. In general, deletions should be discussed on the talk page before they are carried out (except for cases of vandalism or the like), but additions are not typically discussed. I'd encourage you to do a little research and introduce the other side of the controversy in the article.
I hope this is helpful--POV disputes are not my expertise. -- Merope Talk 19:02, 19 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome

[edit]

I included the welcome message above, as I had a feeling that you did not intend anything inappropriate, but instead just needed an introduction to how we do things around here. Your edits are welcome, of course. Study up a little bit on the links above and you will have a great time in our community and become an important community member.

You might want to go back and add whatever you were adding to what is there now. Rearranging is also great. I was forced to revert back a ways to clean it up, due to the extensive deletes. Kukini 16:48, 21 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I cleaned off that word. Good catch! As for the controversy section. I have a feeling, that as the overall controversy dies down, it will fade or shrink in importance on that page. At the moment, we need to keep it all on with both sides reflected. This is similar to the way people are handling the page for Michael Moore. I think we might want to look at using much of that article as a possible template for the article we are discussing. Kukini 20:25, 21 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
