[edit] Welcome!

Hello, Darkhorse82, 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!

[edit] Creating Articles w/ Categories

Good work creating new articles. When you create things, it helps tremendously to assign them to an accurate category (see WP:CG for info). If you're really not sure about categories, at least assign your new articles a stub category (see WP:SC for info). By assigning a category, you help make sure your new articles don't get lost as 'orphans' that are not associated with related topics. Feco

[edit] Short AMG link

Hi. I was just wondering how did you get this short AMG address in The Covers Record article? Jogers 09:49, 22 January 2006 (UTC)

You have to log out of your AMG account. Maybe there's an easier way, but I don't know about it. Darkhorse82 10:20, 22 January 2006 (UTC)
Thanks. I'm going to use this from now on. Jogers 10:53, 22 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Theism and Evolution

Hi, there's a ongoing controversy being discussed in Template talk:User theistic evolution (the dispute includes reversions and accusations of Bad Faith). Since you created that template, maybe you could share your view about it. Bye. --Leinad ¬ pois não? 08:56, 25 January 2006 (UTC)

  • I think you've already addressed the obvious flaws in the other person's argument. However, I'm gonna change the text in the template to "This user believes in the premise of theistic evolution." Why? Because userboxes should present a belief or a fact - not an opinion. "This user accepts.." is an opinion, and it may offend those who hold opposing views - or even those who don't, like myself. Non-theistic evolutionists should change their templates accordingly. Of course, this is only one person's opinion. I'm not gonna go around making radical changes to templates that are irrelevant to me. But--personally--I don't want userboxes on my page suggesting that "I know, and you don't."
