[edit] Welcome to Wikipedia!!!

Hi, USERNAMEHERE, Welcome to Wikipedia! 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. [edit] Additional tips 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 PS: This is not a bot and you did nothing to prompt this message. This is just a friendly welcome by a fellow Wikipedian. Click here to respond to this message!

[edit] Edits by this IP

Please accept my apoligies for any edit this IP adress has preformed, this computer belongs to a Junior High School, and is housed in a popular lab. It would be advisable to block this IP address from editing Wikipedia. Thank You. Sorry for the ugly addition to your Talk page.

[edit] tom delay bot

The Tom Delay article has cleraly been vandalised. My edit only pointed this out, obviously in the wrong format. Unfortunately, you were inaccurate and now your error count is 2, lowering your accuracy.

sorry...

[edit] Cool edit

You didn't fix any vandalism, Kevin Cucci, is in fact very cool.

[edit] A piece of cake to bake

Well I just googled the popular meme quote "A piece of cake to bake" in quotations and only got 172 unique hits[1]. Meanwhile, I type in "Mustard man" also in quotes and get 675 unique hits [2]. Other than that, any references in popular culture to a character are usually put on a separate page. For example, Sean Connery's page doesn't exclusively say "you're the man now dog" since there is a separate page for it, YTMND. Also the Orihime Inoue does not exclusively mention Loituma Girl since there is a separate page for it. Anyway as you said, it would not be right to put pedophilic content or suggestions on a page frequented by children. Gdo01 14:02, 16 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Template

How did you get the welcome template that you are using? I use the more common {{welcome}} message. Sr13 08:20, 19 November 2006 (UTC)

I noticed that on at least [page], your welcome template is broken and corrupted the page - I was able to partially fix it by adding the tag to the call right after "Hi, Gurko", which fixed the font. However, I also had to insert the "Table of Contents" box from my own talk page, and I haven't figured out how to remove it without the corruption returning (I'm thinking there is a "|"}" that needs to be inserted or removed).

[edit] Hi Kf4bdy, Thanks!

Thank you for the helpful tips and some good starting points. I typically use wiki for researching topics. I may get more comfortably and actually contribute someday.

I like your user page template, as I see others do too, from "talk." I also appreciate your honest sharing of your spiritual journey in your profile page.

When I have more time, I will explore what you called the, "Independent Movement."

Peace to you.

how do create road maps like the interstate maps for routes? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 512theking (talk • contribs) 20:19, 6 January 2007 (UTC).

ok.—The preceding unsigned comment was added by GeorgeWClinton (talk • contribs) 22:12, 8 January 2007.

If it wasn't written very well, why didn't you just fix it apposed to deleting the whole thing?

What exactly was unrelated and/or biased? Correct me if I am wrong, but nothing. And SPAM, no wtf? Am I talking to a php program here or something?

What is so bad about saying "you"? Should I have said someone?

"was not all relevant to the subject of the article" EXCUSE ME!? I happen to know exactly what I am talking about, why else would I contribute to the wiki if I didn't know what I was saying?!

"duplicated content in other articles" – So you are saying I copy and pasted information from other articles? What are you NUTS?

"could be seen as part in advertising" - For who, and what? I didn't post anything with my name on it, and FYI nothing I posted was mine.

..."vandalism tag on it". You have *got* to be kidding me? I have contributed quite a fair bit to the hl2dm community, and now for some reason you decide to delete it? Not like it's that hard to correct the grammar yourself, but no... You just go and deleted it?

"but I'm afraid after you've removed all the stuff in your edit that was against policy" What? I didn’t remove anything? What are you going on about?

The thing which really pisses me off is that you go so far to even remove an external link from the EXTERNAL LINKS SECTION!? !?—The preceding unsigned comment was added by Pincus666 (talk • contribs) 22:20, 11 January 2007 (UTC).

Correct me if I am wrong, but you deleted my parts of the hl2dm article. You didn't even bother to edit it.

Correct me if I am wrong, again, but you just ignored my whole message?—The preceding unsigned comment was added by Pincus666 (talk • contribs) 08:06, 12 January 2007 (UTC).

Well, I'm glad I haven't done anything wrong yet (I got your message about 2 minutes after signing up). Do you cruise looking for newbies to welcome? I am always suspicious of unrequested contact, nothing personal. I do appreciate the links that you provided. I don't get the IRC Bootcamp link, tho. Is it really linked like you think?

Wikipedia is amazing. I update a few articles and people who have no knowledge about the topic vandalize it and make threats if I correct their vandalizm. I'm about to bail out.

Huh? [4] Mr Walker is trying to promote himself through wikipedia and then accusesd those who disagree with him of vandalsim. How is reverting his restoration of a deleted article not vandalism when the article is about him? How is my restoring the redirect according to community consensus vandalsim.--Hunter365 15:50, 13 February 2007 (UTC)

You must understand that Persian is spoken everywhere in Iran, it is the official language if you din't know that. I deleted what Babakexorramdin was writing as wrong information such as that Georgian and Armenian is spoken in Markazi and Isfahan province etc.. And who can be so ingnorant to write that Swahili is spoken in Hormozgan province?—The preceding unsigned comment was added by Mohammed180 (talk • contribs) 20:44, 14 February 2007 (UTC).

[edit] Regarding Wendy Bagwell

If you will take a look at the discussion page on the Wendy Bagwell entry, you will see that I clearly indicated why it was removed. This article is one I wrote for my own website. It was lifted word for word, without permission and gives me no credit.

You can view the original version here: http://www.musicscribe.com/2005/04/wendy-bagwell-biography.html

I wrote the original article on April 10, 2005.

Wikipedia is a fine website, but not when users steal what others have written. At the very least, when I take down a violation of my copyright, that should be respected.

[edit] Humorless

I'd think an entry on Oscar K. Maerth's deranged magnum opus could stand a bit of humor! But whatever.

[edit] Welcome message

You might already have realised this and corrected it, but your Welcome message needs a </font> at the end, otherwise it swallows up any messages left after it. (See the History of User talk:Kinghitz for an example.) --Mel Etitis (Talk) 08:38, 12 April 2007 (UTC)

Not wanting to be rude, but I can't tell if the welcome message should still look as it does after the </font> is inserted. It's very untidy. - Dudesleeper · Talk 22:05, 12 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] possible display issue with your welcome messages

Hi Kf4bdy - way back when, you welcomed me (thanks again for that by the way!) with a welcome message on my talk page. I've just noticed that my talk page now looks screwy - like this and I've tested it, and if I comment out your welcome message, it looks fine again.

I don't want to leave it commented out permanently as it was a nice message that I appreciated, so I was just wondering if you had any idea why it now looks funny? I've gone the whole way back through the history, to the first edit when you left the message, and even there it looks funny, which leaves me with two possiblities - either something that is referenced by your welcome message (a template?) has changed, and is affecting the message on my talk page, or else its not the message but rather how my browser is rendering it - but I've checked in IE and Firefox, signed in and signed out.

Another reason I'm contacting you is in case it is an issue that affects all the welcome messages you've left.

Any light you can throw on this would be great.

thanks Rmkf1982 ^Talk 20:33, 13 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] hi

hi who are you??????????????????

[edit] Missing tag

Please take a look at this. A missing closing font tag in the welcome template you used caused all the text on the page except links to turn white making them impossible to read unless selected. Please fix this as soon as possible. - Mgm|^(talk) 10:16, 20 April 2007 (UTC)

• I see you tried fixing it, but the fix might cause other problems. If the first thing you do in the message is open a div tag, it should be closed last. You misplaced the font tag in this message. - Mgm|^(talk) 10:19, 20 April 2007 (UTC)
• I found your template and fixed the order of the tags. - Mgm|^(talk) 10:23, 20 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Correcting errors in articles?

The dollhouse article has an obvious mathematical error in its discussion of 3/4" scale, saying it equals 1:18. I have pointed this out on the Talk:Dollhouse page, but since I don't know enough about this topic, I don't know if I should correct it for 3/4" scale or 1:18 scale. Should the incongruous statements be highlighted or something? — Joe Webster 13:24, 18 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Broken user talk pages

I see several folks have mentioned the problems your broken welcome message has caused on talk pages you added it to. I've made a list of all the talk pages that are certainly broken (your edit adding the broken welcome was the last edit), see User:Kf4bdy/broken talk pages, and a separate list of pages that may be affected (your edit was not the last one), see User:Kf4bdy/possibly broken talk pages. I'm going to solicit help in fixing these at Wikipedia:Bot requests. If you're around and still active, please feel free to help with this. -- Rick Block (talk) 16:51, 14 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] West Plains MO, Stephen W. Thompson

I entered Stephen W. Thompson as a notable person and linked it to First aerial victory by the US military. After David Gates note I added a sentence to support his notability. That hasn't been deleted, so I guess it is OK. But both are in red and I don't know how to make articles or pages to change that.

He was my father, and this is likely to be my only try at Wikipedia.

Bobby Jim

Two things—No one writes articles about their father. Second, there is no way I can verify this. You are only supposed to add verifiable material to Wikipedia. Unless it is, it can be contested and removed. At the moment, it's considered vandalism. I am reverting it right now. JONJONBT talk•homemade userboxes 03:01, 17 July 2007 (UTC)
