Welcome to Wikipedia!

Hello {{PAGENAME}}, '''welcome ↗''' to Wikipedia!

I noticed nobody had said hi yet... Hi!

You might like some of these links and tips:

'''Take a look at the Simplified Ruleset ↗.'''

Read the Tutorial ↗, How to edit a page ↗ and the Manual of Style ↗.

Find out how to revert ↗, move and merge ↗ pages.

Sign your posts on talk pages ↗ using four tildes (~~~~).

Add yourself to the New user log ↗ and a regional notice board ↗

Ask questions at the Village pump ↗ or Help desk ↗.

Use the Show preview ↗ button

Provide an Edit summary ↗

Add the correct image copyright tag ↗ to any images you upload

Take a look at Consensus of standards ↗

'''Be bold ↗'''

Ignore all rules ↗

If you feel a change is needed, feel free to make it yourself! Wikipedia is a wiki ↗, so anyone (yourself included) can edit any article by following the '''{{MediaWiki:edit}}''' link. Wikipedia convention is to be bold ↗ and not be afraid of making mistakes. If you're not sure how editing works, have a look at ''How to edit a page'' ↗, or try out the Sandbox ↗ to test your editing skills.

If, for some reason, you are unable to fix a problem yourself ↗, feel free to ask someone else to do it. Wikipedia has a vibrant community of contributors ↗ who have a wide range of skills and specialties, and many of them would be glad to help. As well as the wiki community pages there are IRC Channels ↗, where you are more than welcome to ask for assistance.

If you have any questions, feel free to '''ask me''' on my talk page. Thanks and happy editing, Alf <sup style="color:green;">melmac</sup> ↗ 14:18, 11 September 2005 (UTC).

Don't forget to sign your posts!

Hello. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages ↗ and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts ↗ by typing four tilde ↗s ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. You may also click on the signature button Image:Button sig2.png ↗ located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your name and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you! —Vanderdecken∴ <b>∫ξ ↗φ ↗</b> 14:50, 3 March 2007 (UTC)

Deletion of CGP ↗

A tag has been placed on :CGP ↗, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article seems to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable, that is, why an article about that subject should be included in Wikipedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion ↗, articles that do not assert notability may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable ↗, and if you can indicate why the subject of this article is notable, you may contest the tagging. To do this, add <code>{{tl|hangon}}</code> on the top of the page (below the existing db tag) and leave a note on the article's talk page ↗ explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm its subject's notability under the guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies ↗, for web sites ↗, for bands ↗, or for companies ↗. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. —<b>Pilot <span style="color:orange;">guy</span> <small>(go around ↗)</small></b> 23:21, 9 March 2007 (UTC)

I've restored it then. Get to work. —<b>Pilot <span style="color:orange;">guy</span> <small>(go around ↗)</small></b> 19:34, 10 March 2007 (UTC)

Careful

You should be careful when reverting vandalism because you reverted Tokyo ↗ to the http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Tokyo&diff=123887625&oldid=123887519 vandalized version ↗. <b><span style="color:#FF9933; font-family:monotype;">Amos Han</span></b> <sup><span style="color:#00FF00;">Talk</span> ↗</sup> 19:37, 18 April 2007 (UTC)
:Oh fnord. Sorry about that - I must clicked on the right instead of the left. Apologies. --Islomaniac 973 19:40, 18 April 2007 (UTC)
