Hi, Spike Minoda. There is a form to leave a message, which is through "Post a Comment", but editing the talk page is also ok. Also, I frequently check the RecentChanges, which is a special page that shows all the recent edits made by users. There, I saw your name with a red talk page link, which means it's empty, and I usually welcome the people with the red talk pages. Also, you can view the new users using this log.
[edit] Image copyright problem with Image:Trtcover.PNG
Thanks for uploading Image:Trtcover.PNG. However, the image may soon be deleted unless we can determine the copyright holder and copyright status. The Wikimedia Foundation is very careful about the images included in Wikipedia because of copyright law (see Wikipedia's Copyright policy).
The copyright holder is usually the creator, the creator's employer, or the last person who was transferred ownership rights. Copyright information on images on Wikipedia is signified using copyright templates. The three basic license types on Wikipedia are open content, public domain, and fair use. Find the appropriate template in Wikipedia:Image copyright tags and place it on the image page like this: {{TemplateName}}.
Please signify the copyright information on any other images you have uploaded or will upload. Remember that images without this important information can be deleted by an administrator. You can get help on image copyright tagging from Wikipedia talk:Image copyright tags. -- Carnildo 04:42, 3 February 2006 (UTC)
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 may want to do. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to our encyclopedia.
the www.linkinpark.com address is fine. No need to add all that other unecessary text please. Thank you. --Xiahou 03:20, 4 April 2007 (UTC)

This is your last warning. The next time you insert a spam link, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Persistent spammers may have their websites blacklisted as well, preventing anyone from linking to them from any site that uses the MediaWiki spam blacklist, which includes all of Wikimedia and Wikipedia.

[edit] User:Spike Minoda
Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to User:Spike Minoda. 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 attract visitors to a web site or promote a product. See the external links guideline and spam policy for further explanations. Since Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, external links do not alter search engine rankings. 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. Thank you. --Calton | Talk 03:12, 5 September 2007 (UTC)
