User talk:Jrec
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Hello Jrec, and welcome to Wikipedia! The first thing you should know is that we encourage you to be bold. Feel free to edit and improve articles, by clicking any 'edit' link.
If you'd like to test what Wikipedia can do, check out the sandbox - just type and save the page and your text will appear. That's the beauty of a Wiki.
For more information check out our tutorial - it's designed with newcomers in mind, as is the help section. If you'd like to get involved with current projects, have a look at the Community Portal. There are always tasks for users to do, ranging from copyediting to expanding stubs.
I hope you'll enjoy your time here, but be warned, it can become addictive! Feel free to message me, I'm more than happy to help. As an added tip, sign any message you post so users know that you've said it. To do so is delightfully simple, just use the wikicode ~~~~.
Once again, welcome!

[edit] How to create a new article
Literally, it's as easy as going to the webpage http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PAGETITLE and if it doesn't exist, the site will ask if you'd like to start the article. James Kendall [talk] 09:43, 31 March 2006 (UTC)
[edit] article Radio Method Records
I'm not sure if it should be on Wikipedia. It may not be classed as notable as it is not famous.
I'll leave it up to you to edit the article, but I'm just giving a heads up. Giving a contact number is also unencyclopaedic. You could try putting the article on your user page if you are in doubt :) James Kendall [talk] 21:58, 1 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Image tagging for Image:Clive_owen1.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Clive_owen1.jpg. The image has been identified as not specifying the source and creator of the image, which is required by Wikipedia's policy on images. If you don't indicate the source and creator of the image on the image's description page, it may be deleted some time in the next seven days.

[edit] Image copyright problem with Image:Rmr2.JPG
Thanks for uploading Image:Rmr2.JPG. However, the image may soon be deleted unless we can determine the copyright holder and copyright status. The Wikimedia Foundation is very careful about the images included in Wikipedia because of copyright law (see Wikipedia's Copyright policy).
The copyright holder is usually the creator, the creator's employer, or the last person who was transferred ownership rights. Copyright information on images is signified using copyright templates. The three basic license types on Wikipedia are open content, public domain, and fair use. Find the appropriate template in Wikipedia:Image copyright tags and place it on the image page like this: {{TemplateName}}. If you have not already done so, please also include the source of the image. In many cases this will be the website where you found it.
Please specify the copyright information and source on any other images you have uploaded or will upload. Remember that images without this important information can be deleted by an administrator. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me, or ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Fritz Saalfeld (Talk) 18:29, 22 October 2006 (UTC)
