Welcome to the Wikipedia!

Welcome to the Wikipedia, Timdream! And thanks for fixing the text breaks on the Guantanamo Bay article. Hope you enjoy editing here and becoming a Wikipedian! Here are a few perfunctory tips to hasten your acculturation into the Wikipedia experience:

Take a look at the Wikipedia Tutorial and Manual of Style.
When you have time, you can peruse The five pillars of Wikipedia, and assume good faith, but keep in mind the unique style you brought to the Wiki!
Always keep the notion of NPOV in mind, be respectful of others' POV, and remember your unique perspective on the meaning of neutrality is invaluable!
If you need any help, post your question at the Help Desk.
Explore, be bold in editing, and, above all else, have fun!

And some odds and ends: Boilerplate text, Brilliant prose, Cite your sources, Civility, Conflict resolution, How to edit a page, How to write a great article, Pages needing attention, Peer review, Policy Library, Utilities, Verifiability, Village pump, Wikiquette, and you can sign your name on any page by typing 4 tildes: ~~~~.

Best of luck, Timdream, and have fun! Ombudsman 19:27, 10 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Mozilla Taiwan

Sorry if the article I created was inaccurate. I just saw that it was a red-link in the affiliates section of Template:Mozilla and I assumed it was one of them so I patterned it after the other affilates' articles using whatever I could find on the website. I see that you have corrected the article to reflect its true nature and fixed the template and I appreciate that as I am not familiar at all with local Mozilla communities.

It appears an IP user removed the section containing Mozilla Online (China) [1] Thorenn (talk) 16:28, 1 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I want to notify you that the page I created Mozilla Taiwan has been nominated for speedy deletion and I have contested this. However I don't think I know enough to make the case against its deletion. If you wish to help save this article please help make a case for it on its talk page.

Speedy deletion nomination of Mozilla Taiwan

You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles. See the Article Wizard.

Thank you.

A tag has been placed on Mozilla Taiwan requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article, which appears to be about a real person, individual animal(s), an organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable. If this is the first page that you have created, then you should read the guide to writing your first article.

If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the article (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Thorenn (talk) 03:32, 19 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
