Welcome!
Hello, 71.3.136.31, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are some pages that you might find helpful:

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name and the date. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or place {{helpme}} on your talk page and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Again, welcome!
However, removal of Bias (compare WP:NPOV) and other statements against Wikipedia's policies is not "vandalism". Just because text is cleared does not mean it is cleared by a vandal; bear in mind that some of the text entered into Wikipedia will be biased (either way), misleading, or just plain wrong. I noticed your reversion of my edit at Darren Robinson - I was removing text put there by an editor whose only edits were vandalism, and treated that one as such too; as a slur on the character of the article subject in question, it also stood as removable by itself. The only way that statement - with its clearly negative POV - could be left in would be if it was cited from a reputable source, including a link back under a references section.
Again, welcome to Wikipedia, and I hope you will keep helping out on articles that catch your interest - but bear in mind that this is an encyclopedia, and needs to be a source for only the information - letting the reader of an article form their opinions themselves. --Firien § 09:04, 14 July 2006 (UTC)

Please refrain from adding nonsense to Wikipedia, as you did to Bend It Like Beckham. It is considered vandalism. If you would like to experiment, use the sandbox. -- zzuuzz (talk) 13:11, 16 July 2006 (UTC)
