From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Hello, welcome to Wikipedia. Here's some tips:
- You can introduce yourself on the new users page
- If you made any edits before you got an account, you might be interested in assigning those to your username.
- You can sign your name using three tildes, like ~~~. If you use four, you can add a datestamp too.
- Remember to use the show preview button before you save a page.
- If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page.
Other useful pages are: how to edit, how to write a great article, naming conventions, manual of style and the Wikipedia policies.
I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Angela. 08:49, Mar 9, 2004 (UTC)
[edit] Love is a Many Splendored Thing
I added a bit to the article, and I'm considering doing some more work to it. See the changes and tell me what you think. Mike H 02:57, Sep 9, 2004 (UTC)
[edit] History of the announcements of Another World
I saw your post about the AW introductions and announcements at WoST. Personally, I don't think this needs to be its own article, but when I put Another World (TV series) through FAC in June, people insisted that things that were "too trivial" go to their own articles. :-/ Mike H 18:40, Oct 6, 2004 (UTC)
[edit] Cleanup
Please don't delete Cleanup headers until the article is actually cleaned up. RickK 06:20, Oct 13, 2004 (UTC)
[edit] SFT
You know those '82 episodes at WoST? Maybe you can give me a faster answer. You know the music blaring in Wendy's apartment in the seventh segment? Who sings that song, and what's it called? I really like that song and want to download it. Mike H 04:59, Nov 1, 2004 (UTC)
[edit] Templates
Greetings! Most templates can be edited by going to the page Template:XXXX where "XXXX" is the name of the template. To explain it better using an example, if you wanted to edit the content of {{Bowl Games}}, you would go to the page Template:Bowl Games. In this same manner, you can create a new template by creating a new article in the Template: namespace, like Template:Burglflikl. You can find some more information on this at Wikipedia:Template messages. RADICALBENDER★ 17:56, Dec 5, 2004 (UTC)
[edit] Article Licensing
Hi, I've started a drive to get users to multi-license all of their contributions that they've made to either (1) all U.S. state, county, and city articles or (2) all articles, using the Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike (CC-by-sa) v1.0 and v2.0 Licenses or into the public domain if they prefer. The CC-by-sa license is a true free documentation license that is similar to Wikipedia's license, the GFDL, but it allows other projects, such as WikiTravel, to use our articles. Since you are among the top 1000 Wikipedians by edits, I was wondering if you would be willing to multi-license all of your contributions or at minimum those on the geographic articles. Over 90% of people asked have agreed. For More Information:
- Multi-Licensing FAQ - Lots of questions answered
- Multi-Licensing Guide
- Free the Rambot Articles Project
To allow us to track those users who muli-license their contributions, many users copy and paste the "{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}" template into their user page, but there are other options at Template messages/User namespace. The following examples could also copied and pasted into your user page:
- Option 1
- I agree to [[Wikipedia:Multi-licensing|multi-license]] all my contributions, with the exception of my user pages, as described below:
- {{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}
OR
- Option 2
- I agree to [[Wikipedia:Multi-licensing|multi-license]] all my contributions to any [[U.S. state]], county, or city article as described below:
- {{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}
Or if you wanted to place your work into the public domain, you could replace "{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}" with "{{MultiLicensePD}}". If you only prefer using the GFDL, I would like to know that too. Please let me know what you think at my talk page. It's important to know either way so no one keeps asking. -- Ram-Man (comment| talk)
[edit] Andrew Lloyd Webber
From your edits to the Phantom of the Opera entry, it is apparent that you mistakenly believe that Andrew Lloyd Webber's last name is simply Webber, which it is not. His last name is Lloyd Webber, the same as his brother, cellist Julian Lloyd Webber. The FinalWord 21:12, 30 Dec 2004 (UTC)
[edit] Sorry
Sorry about the confusion just then with the Smile album. I wasn't sure what was going on! - Akamad 05:46, 11 December 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Rock opera
Hi, I have just reverted your inclusion of Rock Opera in the opera genres template and I would like to explain why I had to do this. The Opera project recently discussed the issue of Rock Opera at some length and the majority were against including it. The list at present is a short one, not all genres are included, only the more important ones. I trust that explains why rock opera is not there. Regards. - Kleinzach 19:39, 21 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Color Classics
A long time ago you contributed information to the article Color Classics. Would it be possible for you to dig up your sources for your contributions? Thank you. Captainktainer * Talk 05:01, 17 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] About Dune (film)
Hello, i recently changed one of the changes you made, about the Dune film. Much of the article is in fact devoted into debunking the rumour that there was a 4-hours director cut of the film that was never shownd, when in reality this cut never actually existed to begin with, the thing that comes close to it was the workprint cut. I encourage you to read the whole "Production" section of the article.
[edit] Article in need of cleanup - please assist if you can
[edit] Bond Soundtrack
Please do not vandalize. Thank you.
[edit] Names
1. The Wikipedia convention (indeed, the convention for all English-language reference works) is to give the English version of the name (the article title) first, and the non-English form second. Please don't continue your extensive attempts to change this.
