[edit] Welcome

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are a few good links for newcomers:

Here are some other hints and tips:

  • I would recommend that you get a username. 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 there are many benefits of having a username. (If you edit without a username, your IP address is used to identify you instead.)
  • When using talk pages, please sign your name at the end of your messages by typing four tildes (~~~~). This will automatically produce your username (or IP address) and the date.

If you have any questions, check out Wikipedia:Where to ask a question, ask me on my Talk page, or type {{helpme}} on this talk page and a user will help you as soon as possible. I will answer your questions as far as I can. Again, welcome!

Thank you again for contributing to Wikipedia. I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian. Mike Christie (talk) 02:48, 29 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Lord of the Rings

Please stop. If you continue to vandalize pages, as you did to The Lord of the Rings, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. --Db099221 01:56, 29 August 2006 (UTC)

Please refrain from adding nonsense to Wikipedia, as you did to The Lord of the Rings. It is considered vandalism. If you would like to experiment, use the sandbox. A link to the edit I have reverted can be found here: link. If you believe this edit should not have been reverted, please contact me. Mike Christie (talk) 01:58, 29 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Your note to me re the LotR change

I just saw your note; I'll leave a reply on my talk page too, in case you check there. You are editing anonymously, which means that there is no way for other editors to distinguish between you and any other user from this same IP. Someone using this IP address vandalized the Lord of the Rings article; you are now using that IP, so you're seeing the warnings. I've added a welcome template at the top, which includes some useful advice; the most useful thing you could do would be to create an account, which only takes a second and requires no personal information. If you do that, there'll be no risk of you being mistaken for another editor. Please leave a message at my talk page if you have any other questions. Mike Christie (talk) 02:48, 29 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Beekeeping

For your edit to that article: Thank you for experimenting with Wikipedia. Your test worked, and it has been reverted or removed. Please use the sandbox for any other tests you want to do.
