[edit] Human rights in Saudi Arabia
In a quick and brief response to your comment, you should know that the unkown (or at least what you didn't mention) is worse, much much worse. -- Eagleamn 12:03, 12 February 2006 (UTC)
P.S: As a courtesy for other editors, it is a Wikipedia guideline to sign your talk page and user talk page posts. To do so simply add four tildes (~~~~) at the end of your comments and your user name or IP address and the date will be automatically added along with a timestamp. Signing your comments helps people to find out who said something and provides them with a link to your user/talk page (for further discussion). For further info read Wikipedia:Talk page guidelines. Thank you.
[edit] WP not a soapbox
Greetings Dean1970 and welcome to Wikipedia. I notice that all your edits so far have been postings on Talk pages, often somewhat polemic and of dubious relevance to the article itself. Please bear in mind that Wikipedia is not a soapbox and it's not the place for personal opinions voiced for their own sake. Perhaps you should think about starting your own website or posting them on some discussion forum. Meanwhile please feel free to edit Wikipedia articles, in a strictly objective and verifiable way that will help us improve the encyclopaedia. Here are some links you might find useful:
- Try the Tutorial, and feel free to experiment in the test area.
- If you need help, post a question at the Help Desk
- Follow the Wikipedia:Simplified Ruleset
- Remember Wikipedia:Neutral point of view
- To sign your posts (on talk pages, for example) use the '~' symbol. To insert just your name, type ~~~ (3 tildes), or, to insert your name and timestamp, use ~~~~ (4 tildes).

[edit] Blanking talk pages
Hi Dean1970, can I ask you not to blank comments on Talk pages, especially when to do so makes nonsense of what is there. Unless content is completely nonsensical or objectionable in some way there is normally no reason to remove comments, and when a Talk page gets too full they can be archived. Thanks.

[edit] link to British
Hello, when you want to link to the article about something British, please do not link to British, as that is a disambiguation page (which nothing should be linked to). Instead link to the one of the options found on that page such as United Kingdom or Great Britain by writing out [[United Kingdom|British]] or [[Great Britain|British]].

[edit] Sign with four tildes
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 tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. You may also click on the signature button 
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! jd || talk || 01:32, 15 October 2006 (UTC)
[edit] License tagging for Image:DVD cover.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:DVD cover.jpg. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.
For more information on using images, see the following pages:
This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 23:08, 31 March 2007 (UTC)
