Hello, welcome to Wikipedia.
You can help improve the articles listed below! This list updates frequently, so check back here for more tasks to try. (See Wikipedia:Maintenance or the Task Center for further information.)

If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. If you made any edits before you got an account, you might be interested in assigning those to your username. I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian!

Hi. Please don't sign articles. That trick with the 4 tildes is for signing talk pages and similar discussions. I hope that's clearer! Cheers, -- Infrogmation 20:31, 16 Jun 2004 (UTC)

Hi, I've started a drive to get users to multi-license all of their contributions that they've made to either (1) all U.S. state, county, and city articles or (2) all articles, using the Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike (CC-by-sa) v1.0 and v2.0 Licenses or into the public domain if they prefer. The CC-by-sa license is a true free documentation license that is similar to Wikipedia's license, the GFDL, but it allows other projects, such as WikiTravel, to use our articles. Since you are among the top 2000 Wikipedians by edits, I was wondering if you would be willing to multi-license all of your contributions or at minimum those on the geographic articles. Over 90% of people asked have agreed. For More Information:
To allow us to track those users who muli-license their contributions, many users copy and paste the "{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}" template into their user page, but there are other options at Template messages/User namespace. The following examples could also copied and pasted into your user page:
OR
Or if you wanted to place your work into the public domain, you could replace "{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}" with "{{MultiLicensePD}}". If you only prefer using the GFDL, I would like to know that too. Please let me know what you think at my talk page. It's important to know either way so no one keeps asking. -- Ram-Man (comment| talk)
Hi, have reverted your edit to List of people who have suffered from depression. I think it's generally considered appropriate to use non gender-specific descriptions for jobs. This is also the view of Equity [[1]]
I have to say your Dorothy Parker addition: "following two years at Vogue" is now less clear. A writer is "on" staff, not "at" the staff. You want to change that back now? --K72ndst 18:57, 2 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Hi. I accidently wiped a recent edit of yours when rv'ing out some nonsense. I was putting your edit back in but hit a conflict with further edits you were doing. Being that the first one was pretty substantial, you may want to back the article up to that version and just put in your later material. The goal of my rv was to get rid of a POV tag further down in the article. Sorry for the headache. Nice edits you are putting in. --StuffOfInterest 19:20, 4 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
[edit]It doesn't help to put quote marks round Govenorship; this is POV editorialising and not permitted. --Rodhullandemu (Talk) 18:15, 13 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for the contributions to Kirk Franklin, however you did not provide a source for your edits or an edit summary. Do you have a citation or source for the information you changed? Absolon S. Kent (talk) 19:39, 18 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
[edit]I have reverted your recent edit to the above -- delinking dates is probably ok per WP:MOSNUM. Also, please use edit summaries. – ukexpat (talk) 22:48, 14 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Hi
Sorry to let you know that i had to roll back some of your pages.
They were unfortunately not following MOSNUM - dates, and in particular Linking dates out of context
They were flagged as vandalism, but i have not reported you.
Please try not to do this and follow the guidelines
thanks Chaosdruid (talk) 01:16, 19 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Hello! I just thought I'd drop by and leave you a link to the manual of style. This message is prompted by the many, many edits you did today in which you bolded certain phrases related to the toxicity of plants. This is highly discouraged. I don't know of any other encyclopedias that do so. Cheers, Rkitko (talk) 02:59, 31 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
It has already been explained to you to stop wikilinking dates and violating other WP:MOS guidelines, but you continue to do so. Therefore:
Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at Taylor Swift, you will be blocked from editing. . Ward3001 (talk) 16:59, 24 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Hello - I reverted your tweak to the first line of the article on Ralph Vaughan Williams - you'll see the reason why. Best wishes. John Hamilton (talk) 10:22, 6 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Please stop linking dates such as the recent edit you made to Paul Williams (The Temptations). This is against the editing guidelines. You have been warned not to do this before, so if you do this again you maye be blocked from editing. --Pontificalibus (talk) 23:28, 26 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
{{unblock|Your reason here}} below, but you should read our guide to appealing blocks first. tedder (talk) 00:23, 27 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
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.
