[edit] Welcome
Hi SMP, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thanks for joining the coolest online encyclopedia I know of. I hope you stick around. You'll probably find it easiest to start with a tutorial of how the wikipedia works, and you can test stuff for yourself in the sandbox. Check out the simplified ruleset. When you're contributing, you'll probably find the manual of style to be helpful, and you'll also want to remember a couple important guidelines.
- Write from a neutral point of view
- Be bold in editing pages
- Use wikiquette.
Those are probably the most important ones, and you can take a look at some others at the policies and guidelines page. You might also be interested in how to write a great article and possibly adding some images to your articles.
Be sure to get involved in the community – you can contact me on my talk page if you have any questions, and you can check out the village pump, where lots of wikipedians hang out and discuss things. If you're looking for something to do, check out the community portal. And whenever you ask a question or post something on a talk page, be sure to sign your name by typing 4 tildes like ~~~~. Always sign the talk page, never the articles.
Again, welcome! It's great to have you. Happy editing!--May the Force be with you! Shreshth91($ |-| r 3 $ |-| t |-|) 12:34, 30 October 2005 (UTC)
[edit] World Citizen userbox, {{User:1ne/Userboxes/User world}}
Hi, I noticed the message saying you're a World Citizen, I would like to invite you to add {{User:1ne/Userboxes/User world}} to your user page if you wish to proclaim it in a more effective way, and this template will also add you automatically to the Wikipedians with World Citizenship category. :) --Mistress Selina Kyle 23:54, 17 December 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Summary
- re this revert
When editing an article on Wikipedia there is a small field labelled "Edit summary" under the main edit-box. It looks like this:
The text written here will appear on the Recent changes page, in the page revision history, on the diff page, and in the watchlists of users who are watching that article. See m:Help:Edit summary for full information on this feature.
When you leave the edit summary blank, some of your edits could be mistaken for vandalism and may be reverted, so please always briefly summarize your edits, especially when you are making subtle but important changes, like changing dates or numbers. Thank you.

[edit] AWB
Sorry I must have forgotten to add you to the list after I removed your name. I have added you to the approved users now, and the AWB should work. By the way, could you please not use a template in your signature, per WP:SIG. Thanks, Prodego talk 15:47, 25 April 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Request for edit summary
When editing an article on Wikipedia there is a small field labeled "Edit summary" under the main edit-box. It looks like this:
The text written here will appear on the Recent changes page, in the page revision history, on the diff page, and in the watchlists of users who are watching that article. See m:Help:Edit summary for full information on this feature.
Filling in the edit summary field greatly helps your fellow contributors in understanding what you changed, so please always fill in the edit summary field, especially for big edits or when you are making subtle but important changes, like changing dates or numbers. Thank you. – Oleg Alexandrov (talk) 02:54, 11 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Re: Help with image tags
Hi SMP, Image:AZNAVOUR.JPG should be deleted. May be fair use can be established for Charles Aznavour article but outside of that it can't be used. Fair use claim has been already made by uploader. See WP:FU and WP:TAG.--Pethr 05:40, 13 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] July 2007
Please do not remove speedy deletion notices from articles you have created yourself, as you did with Bicing. Please use the {{hangon}} template on the page instead if you disagree with the deletion. Thank you. Andyreply 09:48, 20 July 2007 (UTC)
- Big apologies, I hadn't noticed the date that the speedy deletion notice was placed, if I had I would have checked the deletion review! I have removed the speedy deletion notice and placed a note in the edit summary explaining it has been removed as part of the deletion review. Sorry for any inconvenience caused.
