Welcome! (We can't say that loudly enough!)

Hello Cottonball and Welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. If you decide that you need help, check out Wikipedia:Where to ask a question, ask me on my talk page, or place {{helpme}} on your talk page and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions.

[edit] Wikipedia:Citing sources

Greetings. Your recent edits to the Tai Chi Chuan article don't cite any sources for the info you've provided. If you could provide a verifiable source or sources, it would help maintain the info in the article, otherwise it is likely to be removed. Also, if the info does stay in, its nature as "secret" innuendo pretty much guarantees that it will have to be qualified as coming from this or that school. Regards, --Fire Star 火星 04:15, 24 October 2006 (UTC)

Hi Fire Star, be it as you will. I just feel sad that Taiji is taught the way it is today. Cottonball 04:22, 24 October 2006 (UTC)

Yeah, me too. I don't disagree with what you've said (and I left it on the talk page) but we need sources to keep it in the encyclopaedia. Otherwise, I could put all kinds of interesting stories I've been told about the former masters in there! ;-) Cheers, --Fire Star 火星 04:26, 24 October 2006 (UTC)

Sorry, Fire Star, i don't have any sources, because these are the things that i have come to realise over the years. Anyway, thanks for agreeing with me. If another admin takes it out, so be it.
