From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hi Dabarkey, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thanks for your contributions to the coolest online encyclopedia I know of =). I sure hope you stick around; we're always in need of more people to create new articles and improve the ones we already have. You'll probably find it easiest to start with a tutorial of how the wikipedia works, and you can test stuff for yourself in the sandbox. When you're contributing, you'll probably find the manual of style to be helpful, and you'll also want to remember a couple important guidelines. First, write from a neutral point of view, second, be bold in editing pages, and third, use wikiquette. Those are probably the most important ones, and you can take a look at some others at the policies and guidelines page. You might also be interested in how to write a great article and possibly adding some images to your articles.

Be sure to get involved in the community – you can contact me at my talk page if you have any questions, and you can check out the village pump, where lots of wikipedians hang out and discuss things. If you're looking for something to do, check out the community portal. And whenever you ask a question or post something on a talk page, be sure to sign your name by typing ~~~~.

Again, welcome! It's great to have you. Happy editing! --Spangineer (háblame) 04:32, Jun 26, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] RfC on Wiarthurhu

I have filed a Request for Comment on Wiarthurhu Wikipedia:Requests_for_comment/Wiarthurhu. as the next step to resolving the issues on the F-14 Tomcat page. Your input is requested. --Mmx1 05:39, 17 July 2006 (UTC)

Do you know what Mmx1 was doing to the F-14? He was even erasing it from Air superiority fighter even though it used the term before the F-15. He constructed "F-14 was not designed as a dogfighter" from the lack of mention from two open source articles, even though I provided several sources showing Grumman's designers intent that he dismissed as "biased" or "I don't believe you". Do you support his style of WP editing??
I neither support nor oppose a "style of WP editing". I simply seek to make each article as concise and factual as possible. Dabarkey 05:08, 19 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Welcome.

I always appreciate having someone with actual knowledge on a subject.  :) Wikibofh(talk) 03:14, 2 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Fighter Mafia

Haven't spent any time on this, but I did recently expand the Light Weight Fighter article; there is significant overlap with the Fighter Mafia article and all of the sources for LWF also provide citations for "fighter mafia" --Mmx1 20:14, 10 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Reverting vandalism

Thanks, I know how to fix vandalism. The problem was that there were several anonymous vandal edits in a row, and I missed one of them when reverting. Thanks very much for catching that! -- FP (talk)(edits) 08:06, 26 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Photograph size

In reference to your insight to why I was resizing the photographs, if you haven't noticed--practically all Wiki pages are given a specific size. That is my rationale. --Signaleer 14:56, 10 January 2007 (UTC)
