[edit] Welcome!

Hi Cs california, and a warm welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you have enjoyed editing as much as I did so far and decide to stay. Unfamiliar with the features and workings of Wikipedia? Don't fret! Here's some good links for your reference and that'll get you started in no time!

Most Wikipedians would prefer to just work on articles of their own interest. But if you have some free time to spare, here are some open tasks that you may want to help out :

  • RC Patrol - Keeping a lookout for vandalism.
  • Cleanup - Help make unreadable articles readable.
  • Requests - Wanted on Wikipedia, but hasn't been created.
  • Merge - Combining duplicate articles into one.
  • Wikiprojects - So many to join, so many to choose from...Take your pick!

Oh yes, don't forget to sign when you write on talk pages, simply type four tildes, like this: ~~~~. This will automatically add your name and the time after your comments. You also might want to consider visiting Wikipedia:New user log and introducing yourself. And finally, if you have any questions or doubts, don't hesitate to contact me on my talk page or simply place {{helpme}} on this page, and someone will drop by to help out. Once again, welcome! =)

[edit] Note

Please don't blank your talk page; among other things, it can look like you're trying to conceal warnings you've been given. Also, it's not a good idea to remove the AfD tags from articles. PROD tags, yes, but AfD tags, no. DS 14:08, 18 May 2006 (UTC)


[edit] Hi Cs california

Hi, thank you for your message on my talk page! Please add any gameguide articles to my gamecruft to be deleted page, which is at User:Proto/gc. I think many of the pages you suggested are already on this list. I can't delete every game guide article in one go, and am working my way through them systematically. Thanks for pointing out these articles. Regards, Proto///type 18:44, 7 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Civility

It is important to keep a cool head, especially when responding to comments against you or your edits. Personal attacks and disruptive comments only escalate a situation; please keep calm and remember that action can be taken against other parties if necessary. Attacking another user back can only satisfy trolls or anger contributors and leads to general bad feeling. Please try to remain civil with your comments. Thanks!

Please refrain from calling editors names such as "stupid hipocrate" [sic]. It doesn't help your case and is expressly against Wikipedia's policy. Wickethewok 20:35, 7 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] C&CRA navigational box

Hello! I've just started an article called Technology of the Allies (Red Alert series) and I intend to expand into Soviet and Yuri factions as well (with some help from the community, of course) so in the end we'll have something like the technology series of C&C (as seen in {{Command & Conquer}} box). I was hoping that you could add a similar "Technology" title to your C&CRA box and mention the related articles there. Please drop me a line either here or at my talk page. Take care --Xasf 12:01, 19 July 2006 (GMT+3)

[edit] Please don't mess up with user subpages

Thank you for experimenting with the page User:Proto/gc on 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. Wickethewok 01:28, 21 July 2006 (UTC)

Please don't mess with pages in the user space unless given permission by the user or by a consesus ruling. Thanks. Wickethewok 01:28, 21 July 2006 (UTC)

Please refrain from adding nonsense to Wikipedia, as you did to User:Proto/gc. It is considered vandalism. If you would like to experiment, use the sandbox. Wickethewok 01:34, 21 July 2006 (UTC)

The same standards apply for user subpages as userpages. Any edits such as those you are making are considered vandalism. Wickethewok 01:36, 21 July 2006 (UTC)

  • I apologize, as Proto did you give permission. I have taken the liberty of reverting to your chess additions. Wickethewok 01:47, 21 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Image tagging for Image:Arc at legion of honor.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Arc at legion of honor.jpg. The image has been identified as not specifying the source and creator of the image, which is required by Wikipedia's policy on images. If you don't indicate the source and creator of the image on the image's description page, it may be deleted some time in the next seven days. If you have uploaded other images, please verify that you have provided source information for them as well.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

On image description page it says "Image released by author for wikipedia only for informational purposes." This implies to me that use is allowed only on Wikipedia and is not freely licensed. Also the image use policy states "user-created images may not be watermarked, distorted, have any credits in the image itself or anything else that would hamper their free use, unless, of course, the image is intended to demonstrate watermarking, distortion etc. and is used in the related article. All photo credit should be in a summary on the image description page."


[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Pokeball.JPG

Warning sign This file may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:Pokeball.JPG. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. When you use a generic fair use tag such as {{fair use}} or {{fair use in|article name}}, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages 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 fair use images lacking such an explanation 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. Sandstein 09:56, 4 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Welcome

Hi, Cs california, and welcome to WikiProject
San Francisco Bay Area
!

We are a growing community of Wikipedia editors dedicated to identifying, categorizing, and improving articles relevant to the Bay Area. Here are some points that may be helpful:

  • Our main aim is to help improve Bay Area-related articles, so if people ask for help with an article, please try your hardest to help them if you are able.
  • Most important discussions take place on the project's main discussion page. It is highly recommended that you watchlist it.
  • The project has several ongoing and developing activities, such as article quality assessment, which you are welcome to participate.
  • Our system for improving lower-quality articles is Jumpaclass. If you'll be editing stub, start, or B-class articles, consider using Jumpaclass to track your progress.
  • If you have another language besides English, please consider adding yourself to our translation section, to help us improve our foreign Bay Area topics.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask on the talk page, and we will be happy to help you.

Again, welcome! We hope you enjoy working on this project.
