[edit] Welcome to the Wikipedia

Welcome, newcomer!

Here are some useful tips to ease you into the Wikipedia experience:

First, take a look at the Wikipedia Tutorial, and perhaps dabble a bit in the test area.
When you have some free time, take a look at the Manual of Style and Policies and Guidelines. They can come in very handy!
Remember to use a neutral point of view!
If you need any help, feel free to post a question at the Help Desk
Explore, be bold in editing pages, and, most importantly, have fun!

Also, here are some odds and ends that I find useful from time to time:

Feel free to ask me anything the links and talk pages don't answer. You can most easily reach me by posting on my talk page.

You can sign your name on any page by typing 4 tildes, likes this: ~~~~.

Best of luck, and have fun!

You've requested a translation of the Danish article on Heinrich Christian Friedrich Schumacher and I will produce this as soon as I have a chance. Just letting you know this request will not be ignored.--Mike 08:58, 23 September 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Butterflies

Hi, I have made some butterfly images and used them in List of butterflies of the Indian subcontinent. Unfortunately I made a mistake and didnt put them in the commons. Please feel free to use them. Shyamal 04:17, 25 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Redirect syntax

A quick note: the syntax of a redirect looks like this:

#REDIRECT [[page to redirect to]]

I've fixed United States National Academy of Engineering for you. --ais523 12:44, 1 August 2006 (U T C)

[edit] Charles & Robert Swinhoe

Hi Valérie. I have no explanation for this. I've got sources for Robert's date of birth but not Charles's. Have you got access to any of Charles's obituaries? I'll have a look this evening to see where I read that they were brothers. Smallweed 12:29, 21 February 2007 (UTC)

May be, I will make a research in the Bibliothèque centrale of Muséum national d'histoire naturelle in few days. Today all Wikipédias are in the error.--Valérie75 12:53, 21 February 2007 (UTC)

Barbara and Richard Mearns refer to them as brothers in "Biographies for Birdwatchers" and "The Bird Collectors". Their reference is Charles' obituary in The Ibis 1924 pp. 362-3. Smallweed 09:29, 22 February 2007 (UTC)

Hi Valerie, thanks for pointing out. Very interesting. Will see if I can find any of the original sources. cheers. Shyamal 10:39, 24 February 2007 (UTC)
