[edit] Welcome to Wikipedia!
Hello RandallJones, welcome to Wikipedia!
Here are some tips:
- Take a look at the Simplified Ruleset.
- Read the Tutorial, How to edit a page and the Manual of Style.

- Sign your posts on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~).
- Add yourself to the New user log.
- Ask questions at the Village pump or Help desk.

If you feel a change is needed, feel free to make it yourself! Wikipedia is a wiki, so anyone (yourself included) can edit any article by following the Edit this page link. Wikipedia convention is to be bold and not be afraid of making mistakes. If you're not sure how editing works, have a look at How to edit a page, or try out the Sandbox to test your editing skills.
If, for some reason, you are unable to fix a problem yourself, feel free to ask someone else to do it. Wikipedia has a vibrant community of contributors who have a wide range of skills and specialties, and many of them would be glad to help. As well as the wiki community pages there are IRC Channels, where you are more than welcome to ask for assistance.
If you have any questions, feel free to ask me on my talk page. Thanks and happy editing, Alphax τεχ 09:20, 15 Jun 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Flatland film
FYI: The external link you put into Flatland for the upcoming film goes to a 404 page. - DavidWBrooks 00:49, 23 June 2006 (UTC)
- The one in the <ref>{{cite web}} that shows up down in Notes? Just went there now after clearing cache. Works for me… --RandallJones 17:12, 26 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Your sandbox
I came across a link at Hetch Hetchy Valley that should have pointed to Hetch Hetchy Railroad. Instead, it pointed to your sandbox, which contains what is certainly enough of an article to be moved to mainspace. May I suggest that you do so, and continue to work on it there?
The link at Hetch Hetchy Valley was listed here as a probable violation of the rule on cross-namespace links, which is how I found it. I have taken the liberty of changing the link in anticipation of the article being created. Thanks. John Broughton | Talk 20:23, 9 January 2007 (UTC)
- I hadn't noticed the link and I agree with your edit. I had not moved my draft yet because there are still some chunks I need to paraphrase so it doesn't attract a copyvio. I'll see if I can't get back to work on that and move it ASAP. —RandallJones 21:13, 9 January 2007 (UTC)
- Sounds good. I was so busy admiring the article that I forgot about that. If you don't mind, please drop me a note when you put the article out; I'll be happy to do a minor copyedit that might help reduce any doubts. John Broughton | Talk 00:13, 10 January 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Fair use images in userspace
I removed two images from a subpage in your userspace. Fair use images are not allowed outside of article namespace per fair use criteria #9.--NMajdan•talk 19:43, 11 January 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Caribou
There is a book called Colorado, 1870-2000 Revisited, The History Behind the Images by John Fielder which is publisg by Westcliffe Publishers (www.westcliffepublishers.com) ISBN: 1-56579-389-7.
This is the book where I got the Caribou from (Athough I typed the article with my own words yet it was true to the documents) And I learned about Caribou/Caribou Ranch thing. John Fielder wrote in his book about the ranch on page 65: I knew that Jim Guercio, ex-drummer of the defunct rock band Chicago, owned a place called Caribou Ranch, but he does not know that an old mining town named Caribou existed in the 19th century which is where I got the source to put in the Caribou Ranch. I may be wrong that it saids nothing about the town existed where the ranch is. I think we shoud keep it "Coincidently, there was a 19th century town named Caribou".

- There's "caribou" stuff all over that part of Colorado; it might be worth including as a possible historical basis for the name of the ranch. Please repost your point above over on Talk:Caribou Ranch so others have a chance to chime in that won't see this here on my backwater page. (Don't forget to add your new article to Caribou (disambiguation).) —RandallJones 10:27, 16 January 2007 (UTC)
