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.
- The eligibility to eventually become an administrator.
- 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. -- KOS | talk 16:17, 22 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Creating a user account
- Hello, all you have to do is click on this link and you'll be able to create the account. If I created it for you, you would not be logged into it. Cheers KOS | talk 16:45, 22 August 2006 (UTC)
- Ahh, well it appears that your ip address is from AOL, so your ip address will change once you disconnect from your internet, and return. KOS | talk 16:49, 22 August 2006 (UTC)
- What I mean is it would be pointless to start that page, because once you leave and return you will have a new one, the only way to prevent this is to create an actual account. KOS | talk 16:50, 22 August 2006 (UTC)
- Yes it will, I know that, but since it's a dynamic IP, rather than a part of AOL's proxy pool, it probably won't be re-used for several months, and since there's a bot that blanks un-used IP pages after about 6 months of inactivity, it shouldn't really be a problem--172.130.227.58 16:51, 22 August 2006 (UTC)

- And now that my browser crashed... new IP already, all that javascript running in the background must have overwhelmed AOL--172.166.96.48 20:13, 22 August 2006 (UTC)
- If you do not wish to constantly "change" your IP address, you can click the link at Special:Userlogin and create, for example, User:Example. You must have cookies enabled to create a Wikipedian account. —$ΡЯΙNGεrαgђ (-¢|ε|Ŀ|T|♪-) 22:48, 22 August 2006 (UTC)
Many thanks for your work, hope you get this before your ip changes. --Alf melmac 00:42, 23 August 2006 (UTC)
This is the discussion page for an anonymous user, identified by the user's numerical IP address. Some IP addresses change periodically, and may be shared by several users. If you are an anonymous user, you may create an account or log in to avoid future confusion with other anonymous users. Registering also hides your IP address.
