Hi there,

I noticed you did a large amount of work on Four Dead in Five Seconds Gunfight and thought you'd appreciate a look now I've 'Wikified' and added some more content.

Paste any feedback you may have on my talk page!

Kindest Regards,

[edit] 2nd June

Hi!

Thanks for getting back to me so quickly. I'm glad to see someone with such a great, friendly attitude join Wikipedia!I'm glad you liked the article, it took quite a while.

Most of the things you'll need to know about styling are in the manual of style, but the tutorial is quite useful for learning the basics. Other than that, the best way to learn is to look at coding in other articles or ask other users for help- I'm more than happy to help as far as I can, just email me or leave a message on my talk page.

Here's a few other links you may find useful:

  • If you do recent changes patrolling, you may find the administrator intervention against vandalism page useful for alerting admins to IP addresses or other users that have been vandalising Wikipedia. There's more help for this on the page itself.
{{subst:temp1-n|Article name}} gives a template warning the user

Don't forget you can sign posts on user pages and talk pages by typing ~~~~.

Kind regards,

[edit] El Paso, Texas

Are you from El Paso? Somnabot 23:06, 11 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] El Paso

I was born and raised in El Paso, Texas. Apparently, I know the city very well and know it like the back of my hand. I no longer reside there.  :) How about you?

I am looking to further expand the article about El Paso. I hope to branch the article out amongst topics of neighborhoods, personality, and notable people. A valid aspect lacking in the current article is the presence of the Albert Bacon Fall 1907 mansion located at 1725 Arizona. This piece of the El Paso puzzle is only one example of what is lacking. Prominent names within the El Paso community continue to remain faceless within the pages of Wikipedia as well. Aside from the El Paso article, I wish to further expand the Ciudad Juarez article as it is brief, and overall below average in content. I write to you looking for help... If you have anything to contribute along these lines, please aid me in my endeavor. Somnabot 06:14, 13 July 2006 (UTC)
