I hope you like this place — I sure do — and want to stay. Before getting too in-depth, you may want to read about the Five pillars of Wikipedia and simplified ruleset. If you need help on how to title new articles check out the naming conventions, and for help on formatting the pages visit the manual of style. If you need help look at Wikipedia:Help and the FAQ , plus if you can't find your answer there, check the Village Pump (for Wikipedia related questions) or the Reference Desk (for general questions)! There's still more help at the Tutorial and Policy Library. Plus, don't forget to visit the Community Portal. And if you have any more questions after that, feel free to post them on my user talk page or place {{helpme}}
on your talk page and someone will be by to help you shortly.
Additional tips
[edit]Here's some extra tips to help you get around in the 'pedia!
- If you want to play around with your new Wiki skills the Sandbox is for you.
- You can sign your name using three tildes (~). If you use four, you can add a datestamp too. Five will get you the datestamp only.
- You may want to add yourself to the new user log.
- If you ever think a page or image should be deleted, please list it at the votes for deletion page. There is also a votes for undeletion page if you want to retrieve something that you think should not have been deleted.
- If you're still entirely confused, or would like to get a better grasp of your wikipedia skills, and you have an IRC client (or don't mind getting one), check out the Bootcamp. It's not what it sounds like, but it is fun and can help you with your editing skills.
- If you're bored and want to find something to do, try the Random page button in the sidebar, or check out the Open Task message in the Community Portal.
Happy Wiki-ing. —Kf4bdy talk contribs

When you clean up vandalised articles, as you did at Bacteriophage, please look at the edit history and ensure that you correct everything the vandal changed. -- Narge 11:13, 10 September 2006 (UTC)
- Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia. Wikipedia is not a mere directory of links nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. Inappropriate links include (but are not limited to) links to personal web sites, links to web sites with which you are affiliated, and links that exist to attract visitors to a web site or promote a product. See the external links guideline and spam policies for further explanations of links that are considered appropriate. If you feel the link should be added to the article, then please discuss it on the article's talk page rather than re-adding it. See the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. Thank you.

Carlos Boozer edit
[edit]Your edit was reverted due to you not citing your references, taking into the account the nature of the wording of the statement you added. Please accompany edits with verifiable sources in future. --Downwards 21:40, 21 January 2007 (UTC)
J.J. Redick
[edit]I'm not trying to keep you from editing this article, but please don't revert my changes. In addition to editing your text, I also footnoted all of your references, and I don't particularly want to do it again. Let me try to justify the changes I made. I took out the phrase, "the most famous incident," because your source never makes that claim. I took out "Perhaps Redick's most prominent legacy" because it's meaningless speculation. Again, I could keep it if the source maid that claim, but it doesn't. I took the quote marks off "50 to 75" because the source doesn't quote Redick, it paraphrases him, and I changed the wording because your sentence didn't make clear whether it was Redick or another source who made that claim. I'm reverting your changes, mainly because I don't feel like fixing the citations again. If you'd like to add back some of the information I took out, please do it without undoing my work. --Djrobgordon 02:37, 31 January 2007 (UTC)
Orphaned fair use image (Image:Hu 061116gottliebbigten1v thumbnail big.jpg)
[edit]Thanks for uploading Image:Hu 061116gottliebbigten1v thumbnail big.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable under fair use (see our fair use policy).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you.

It might not have been your intention, but your recent edit removed content from Fantasy 411. Please be careful not to remove content from Wikipedia without a valid reason, which you should specify in the edit summary or on the article's talk page. Take a look at our welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. A link to the edit I have reverted can be found here: link. If you believe this edit should not have been reverted, please contact me. V60 VTalk · VDemolitions 19:55, 14 February 2007 (UTC)
Matt Wieters
[edit]Thanks for adding the comment ("It should be noted...") about Matt Wieters' MLB draft prospects on the 2007 Major League Baseball Draft page. I'm sure you must realize that the Wikipedia policies on verifiability, especially with regards to living persons, are quite strict about providing reliable sourcing for such comments, as the Wikipedia can be held liable for such remarks. It is conceivable that Matt's agent and attourney could even claim that the Wikipedia harmed Matt's draft prospects, to the extent that the Wikipedia would owe Mr. Wieters substantial damages for lost wages. I have added a "citation needed" tag on your comment. If you can please attribute that comment to a reliable source, with a link to the news agency or editorial where you found it, then please do so immediately. If you cannot, then we must remove that comment, post haste. Thank you for your attention. --T-dot ( Talk/contribs ) 22:00, 26 May 2007 (UTC)
Fair use rationale for Image:Doug Gottlieb 920 AM.jpg
[edit]![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/f/f7/Nuvola_apps_important.svg/70px-Nuvola_apps_important.svg.png)
Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Doug Gottlieb 920 AM.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 01:12, 3 June 2007 (UTC)
Image:411webcrew.jpg
[edit]I have tagged Image:411webcrew.jpg as {{no rationale}}, because it does not provide a fair use rationale. If you believe the image to be acceptable for fair use according to Wikipedia policy, please provide a rationale explaining as much, in accordance with the fair use rationale guideline, on the image description page. Please also consider using {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair_use. Thank you. MER-C 06:21, 7 July 2007 (UTC)
Wikimania in Atlanta!
[edit]![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/0/09/Wikimania_2008_at_Tech.jpg/150px-Wikimania_2008_at_Tech.jpg)
Hi! I noticed your involvement on U.S. South-related articles, categories and WikiProjects, and I wanted to let you know about a bid we're formulating to get next year's Wikimania held in Atlanta! If you would like to help, be sure to sign your name to the "In Atlanta" section of the Southeast team portion of the bid if you're in town, or to the "Outside Atlanta" section if you still want to help but don't live in the city or the suburbs. If you would like to contribute more, please write on my talk page, the talk page of the bid, or join us at the #wikimania-atlanta IRC chat on freenode.org. Have a great day!
P.S. While this is a template for maximum efficiency, I would appreciate a note on my talk page so I know you got the message, and what you think. This is time-sensitive, so your urgent cooperation is appreciated. :) Mike H. I did "That's hot" first! 09:42, 31 August 2007 (UTC)

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
