[edit] Welcome!

Hello, Smileyrepublic, Welcome to Wikipedia!
I hope you like working here and want to continue. If you need help on how to name new articles, look at the Guide to layout, and for help on formatting the pages visit the Manual of Style. If you need general help, look at Help and the FAQ, and if you can't find your answer there, check the Village pump (for Wikipedia related questions) or the Reference Desk (for general questions). There's still more help at the Tutorial and the Policy Library. Also, don't forget to visit the Community Portal — and if you have any more questions after that, feel free to post them on my New-Users' Talk Page.
Additional tips:
Here are some extra tips to help you get around Wikipedia:
  • If you want to play around with your new Wiki skills, try the Sandbox.
  • Click on the Edit button on a page, and look at how other editors did what they did.
  • You can sign your name using three tildes, like this: ~~~. If you use four, you can add a datestamp too. Always sign comments on Talk pages, never sign Articles.
  • You might want to add yourself to the New User Log
  • If your first language isn't English, try Wikipedia:Contributing to articles outside your native language
  • Full details on Wikipedia style can be found in the Manual of Style.
Happy editing!

This is a bit late, I'm afraid — but better a late welcome than none at all. Mel Etitis (Μελ Ετητης) 11:41, 6 Jun 2005 (UTC)

[edit] "Nothing riles me more than poor spelling"

Perhaps you should read the papers! There are a few more disturbing things in the world to be upset about. Although I value your strive to improve wikipedia by correcting spelling errors, try to do so in a collaborative manner, and not offending other users. The JPS 22:51, 9 Jun 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Malcolm Glazer

Glad you liked it :-) Are you a red as well? CTOAGN 13:45, 15 Jun 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Vandalism

No problem. Well, you could always give me an ordinary one! (That's not a request, BTW!) smoddy 20:25, 22 Jun 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Your edit warring on Urban75

Your edit warring on Urban75 goes far beyond what is acceptable on Wikipedia. If there is any sign of resumption I will block you. --Tony Sidaway|Talk 20:55, 23 Jun 2005 (UTC)

I'll take it as read, then, that WP doesn't want my edits. Smileyrepublic 21:26, 23 Jun 2005 (UTC)
That's not what I'm saying. WP doesn't want you edit warring. --Tony Sidaway|Talk 21:28, 23 Jun 2005 (UTC)
Then why not warn the half-witted anon who's come from U75's bulletin boards to do little other than engage in revert wars on Urban75 and add linkspam to articles on Nick Wrack, Lindsey German and George Galloway and has a penchant for adding obscenities to my user page? Smileyrepublic 21:30, 23 Jun 2005 (UTC)
I'm sure I shall do so if instances of this come to my attention. --Tony Sidaway|Talk 21:32, 23 Jun 2005 (UTC)
I have to say, you seem a bit of a jobsworth. Is it hot where you are tonight, cause it's cooling down in the North West. Have a beer, get a fan ... Smileyrepublic 21:44, 23 Jun 2005 (UTC)
Advice much appreciated. No, I'm not a jobsworth. I just warned you that edit warring was bad for Wikipedia. If you want to help Wikipedia please do feel free to report edit warring to WP:ANI or WP:AN3, where administrators will take any action that is due. --Tony Sidaway|Talk 00:19, 26 Jun 2005 (UTC)

[edit] UK COTW: Transport in the United Kingdom

Hey, just to let you know, an article you supported, Transport in the United Kingdom, is this week's collaboration. Cheers! -- Joolz 19:18, 26 Jun 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Category:UK Wikipedians

Hi, just to let you know that the list of UK participants at the UK notice board was getting rather long, so I have replaced it with the above category which I have added to your user page. -- Francs2000 | Talk 30 June 2005 20:51 (UTC)

[edit] Hello?

Thought it seemed quiet on here. Where have you gone? I hope you're just taking a break and aren't too pissed off by the edit war stuff. It seems to happen to everyone on here sooner or later, but it'd be a shame to lose another contributor. Anything I can do to help, give me a shout. CTOAGN 8 July 2005 20:56 (UTC)

[edit] Please don't use that sort of language on my talk page again...

...I find the word "sc***ser" highly offensive :-D

Good to see you're back. How are things? CTOAGN 19:54, 16 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] UK Radio stations

I noticed your comments at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Radio Stations about infoboxes and other things. I was wondering if you wanted to jointly co-ordinate some mass cleanup of British radio stations, and come up with an infobox and style more relevant to this side of the pond. --throup ✆ ✍ 20:19, 16 October 2005 (UTC)

I have read your comments at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Radio Stations and have written a reply. Hopefully the problems you mention will have been solved now (unless someone decides to remove the field-hiding code in the infobox again). --Marknew 07:21, 17 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Straw poll

You took part in the discussion at Talk:City of Manchester recently, but no-one seems to have mentioned the straw poll at the bottom to you. Thought you might be interested. You were right about EarlyBird. CTOAGN 18:10, 20 October 2005 (UTC)
