[edit] Welcome to Wikipedia!
Dear Put It Down Boy: Welcome to Wikipedia, a free and open-content encyclopedia. I hope you enjoy contributing. To help get you settled in, I thought you might find the following pages useful:
- Five Pillars of Wikipedia
- Community Portal
- Frequently Asked Questions
- How to edit a page
- How to revert to a previous version of a page
- Tutorial
- Copyrights
- Shortcuts
Don't worry too much about being perfect. Very few of us are! Just in case you are not perfect, click here to see how you can avoid making common mistakes.
If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the New contributors' help page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type {{helpme}} on your user page, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions.
Wikipedians try to follow a strict policy of never biting new users. If you are unsure of how to do something, you are welcome to ask a more experienced user such as an administrator. One last bit of advice: please sign any dicussion comment with four tildes (~~~~). The software will automatically convert this into your signature which can be altered in the "Preferences" tab at the top of the screen. I hope I have not overwhelmed you with information. If you need any help just let me know. Once again welcome to Wikipedia, and don't forget to tell us about yourself and be BOLD! ~ N. Harmon 17:34, 28 May 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Ashes of the Wake
Thank you for experimenting with Wikipedia. Your test worked, and has been reverted or removed. Please use the sandbox for any other tests you want to do. Take a look at the welcome page if you would like to learn more about contributing to our encyclopedia. Nufy8 16:13, 29 May 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Evil Chemistry
Please do me a favor. It's obvious that "Evil Chemistry" and all of the corresponding articles you've created about it are fake, so if you request that they be deleted now, there won't be a need to go through the lengthy deletion process. How about it? Nufy8 16:50, 29 May 2006 (UTC)
- I'm going to nominate them for deletion. You can still request that they be deleted immediately, though. And I suggest you refrain from disrupting the process by creating more articles like this. Thank you. Nufy8 17:07, 29 May 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Image Tagging Image:SKTSBA-m.jpg

|
Thanks for uploading Image:SKTSBA-m.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this media yourself then there needs to be an argument why we have the right to use the media on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the media yourself then it needs to be specified where it was found, i.e., in most cases link to the website where it was taken from, and the terms of use for content from that page.
If the media also doesn't have a copyright tag then one should be added. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media qualifies as fair use, consider reading fair use, and then use a tag such as {{fairusein|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair_use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.
If you have uploaded other media, consider checking that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. cholmes75 (chit chat) 17:56, 29 May 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Results
Your experiment to see how long your fiction can last undetected in Wikipedia is now over. All your fictitious articles have been deleted, or are now in the process of being deleted. You are blocked from editing for the rest of your life; don't come back. DS 00:00, 30 May 2006 (UTC)
