[edit] Welcome to the Wikipedia
Welcome, newcomer!
Here are some useful tips to ease you into the Wikipedia experience:
- First, take a look at the Wikipedia Tutorial, and perhaps dabble a bit in the test area.
- When you have some free time, take a look at the Manual of Style and Policies and Guidelines. They can come in very handy!
- Remember to use a neutral point of view!
- If you need any help, feel free to post a question at the Help Desk
- Explore, be bold in editing pages, and, most importantly, have fun!
Also, here are some odds and ends that I find useful from time to time:
- Wikipedia:Policy Library
- Wikipedia:Utilities
- Wikipedia:Cite your sources
- Wikipedia:Verifiability
- Wikipedia:Wikiquette
- Wikipedia:Civility
- Wikipedia:Conflict resolution
- Wikipedia:Brilliant prose
- Wikipedia:Pages needing attention
- Wikipedia:Peer review
- Wikipedia:Bad jokes and other deleted nonsense
- Wikipedia:Village pump
- Wikipedia:Boilerplate text

[edit] Beaujolais effect
The problem with Beaujolais effect is that it seems to assume too much existing reader knowledge. What's a "visibility rule"? What's a "use clause"? The article doesn't say, or say where to find out. I read the article, and I can kind of put together the meaning, but have to apply some guesswork because I don't have a background in computer language design. -- Cyrius|✎ 00:31, 1 Apr 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Le Monde diplomatique
I see that you have replaced the affirmation that the Diplo is decidedly left-wing by an affirmation that it is generally considered to be so.
In all trueness, I don't know who considers that the Diplo is not left-wing. Perhaps the only people doing so are far far left activists, to whom anybody not espousing their own brand of communism is guilty of a "right-wing deviation" or is a "social-traitor". :-) But, seriously, the Diplo is left-wing by all reasonable definitions.

[edit] Women Unite
Women Unite has been proposed for deletion. Please see the article for details. NickelShoe 01:29, 1 March 2006 (UTC)
- Hi, I was not the person who proposed the article for deletion. That was NickelShoe. If you remove it, most likely NickelShoe will nominate it for Articles for Deletion. That is the next step.
- Every article on Wikipedia must satisfy the non negotiable policy of WP:V through WP:RS using WP:CITE. All of this means that you must show the encyclopedic importance of the article through verifying the statements in it by referencing third-party sources. In addition, if the group is music-related, it must satisfy WP:BAND. If you have any questions about this feel free to ask me.
- My page being semi-protected just means that non-registered users cannot edit it, so that does not apply to you! Sincerely, --Mattisse 13:05, 11 January 2007 (UTC)

- Looking back in the article's history, I guess I was the one who put the tag on in August, 2006. Anyway, what I wrote above still applies. Wikipedia's policy is that "verifiablity" not "truth" is the criteria for referencing. This is because Wikipedia is an encyclodia. Read WP:NOT - what Wikipedia is not.
