From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
[edit] Welcome!
Welcome to Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia! You don't have to log in to read or edit articles on Wikipedia, but creating an account is quick, free and non-intrusive, requires no personal information, and gives you many benefits, including:
- The use of a username of your choice, provided that it is appropriate.
- The use of your own personal watchlist to which you can add articles that interest you.
- The ability to start new pages.
- The ability to rename pages.
- The ability to edit semi-protected pages.
- The ability to upload images.
- The ability to customize the appearance and behavior of the website.
- Your IP address will no longer be visible to other users.
We hope that you choose to become a Wikipedian and create an account. Feel free to ask me any questions you may have on my talk page. By the way, make sure to sign your posts and comments with four tildes (~~~~), which will let others know who left it. -Phoenixrod 20:47, 16 September 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Please stop vandalism
Please do not add nonsense to Wikipedia. It is considered vandalism. If you would like to experiment, use the sandbox. Thank you. WVhybrid 22:41, 29 October 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Your comment on my talk page
Dear 71.224.218.188:
Your right, I did make a mistake. My only excuse is that you made it easy to perceive your edit as vandalism. You didn't leave an edit summary, and you didn't identify yourself. Then I misread the edit differential. My bad. Sorry. I need to be more careful (and go to bed earlier!)
However, I thought that my comment to you was pretty gentle for this place. I sorted through several different replies before I found the comment that I sent you, because I wanted try to be especially polite.
By the way, please, in the future, sign you edits. You can do that by leaving 4 curly symbols (~~~~) at the end of your talk page edit. WVhybrid 23:51, 30 October 2006 (UTC)
- Thank you for your polite reply. I'd like to urge you to come on and get on board. Learning to use Wikipedia isn't very hard, and it can help make communications go much more smoothly. (I made my first edit just last May.) Also, you may want to open an account so that your IP is not visible. (From your IP it looks like you live near a Phildelphia suburb and get your internet access from your cable service provider.) Good luck, and keep spotting those grammatical errors!
