[edit] Welcome to Wikipedia!
Hello CorkMan, 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.
- Create a User page.
- 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.
- Be bold!
- Use the Show preview button
- Provide an Edit summary.
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 04:55, 19 Jun 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Request for edit summary
Hi. I am a bot, and I am writing to you with a request. I would like to ask you, if possible, to use edit summaries a bit more often when you contribute. The reason an edit summary is important is because it allows your fellow contributors to understand what you changed; you can think of it as the "Subject:" line in an email. For your information, your current edit summary usage is 0% for major edits and 0% for minor edits. (Based on the last 150 major and 2 minor edits in the article namespace.)
This is just a suggestion, and I hope that I did not appear impolite. You do not need to reply to this message, but if you would like to give me feedback, you can do so at the feedback page. Thank you, and happy edits, Mathbot 20:31, 27 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] John J. O'Kelly
Hi Corkman,
congratulations on your excellent work on Irish politicians. I have been doing some work on that area myself (categorising, creating stubs for some missing members of the [[Oireachtas]), and have encounted a problem with the article you created on John J. O'Kelly -- it appears to contradict he info on the Oireachtas members database. I have flagged the article as disputed (sorry, that's the available template, but the word is a bit strong!) and I have explained the details on Talk:John J. O'Kelly.
What do you think? --BrownHairedGirl 08:12, 30 April 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Irish sportspeople
I see you have been add several Irish sports-people article recently. Perhaps you can fill in some of the missing Millennium GAA Team without pages that are listed here: List of people on stamps of Ireland. Besides the Millennium GAA Team there are other sports-people listed there about whom I know nothing myself. Hope you can help. Cheers ww2censor 18:01, 10 June 2006 (UTC)
Hi, CM, please consider adding {{gaelic-sport-stub}} for gaelic footballers, to assist us poor drudges in the {{stub}} department. It could lead to your articles being expanded more rapidly. Cheers V. Joe 18:20, 15 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Use of fair use images
Going through your template contributions at [1], I found a large number of cases where images tagged with a fair use tag were used. Please understand that the use of fair use images outside of the main article namespace is proscibed by Wikipedia:Fair use criteria item #9. I've removed all such violations where I've found them. If you have any questions about this, I'd be happy to answer. All the best, --Durin 18:03, 13 August 2006 (UTC)
