User talk:HLS Group 3

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hi. I got here via the Wikipedia:Wikiproject Cyberlaw description. Best of luck in your time here on the wiki. I do have a comment. The first edit from this account was basically repeating your user page content at User:Cyberlaw-3. A quick check of the New users log shows that no such account was ever made and I have deleted your edit on the off chance that somebody else takes that account name only to find somebody has already started their user page. You are welcome to create a duplicate account at that name if you think there is a need to "reserve" it.

FYI, user pages are normally considered personal, though obviously not private, and many Wikipedians will refrain from editing other people's user pages even when there are blatant errors/typos. Editing another user page (though not user talk) will often draw the attention of Recent changes patrollers looking for vandalism. I'll do the welcome honors below.

Welcome!

Hello HLS Group 3, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are a few good links for newcomers:

[edit] Welcome from User:AlMac|^(talk)

Welcome from me too. I see that some of you anyway, have learned how to sign your name on talk pages. You might like to check the tool box on (your) user contributions from time to time. Where it says Top in bold, that means you were last to edit that page. You can visit other editor volunteer pages, then click on user contributions there, to see what they have contributed to recently. Another interesting link is Your edit count statistics. You'll need to cut & paste "HLS Group 3" into the search box there because I am not yet as slick as I want to be in fixing these links to go directly. I not remember how long it took me to get it right on my user page. Hmm, it says that there was one edit that you did that got deleted, but we need to be an administrator (I am not) to see what it was.

For some articles, you may be interested in knowing when there are edits after yours, and see what happened. The way I like to do that is when I visit a page I think I may be interested in checking up on again, as it evolves, I click the Watch button, which puts it on my watch list, which I check soon after signing on, to see which of the pages, that I am interested in, have had activity.

[edit] Talk:Kindergartener hypothetical

Suggest you might want to check this page. Basically there is a school of thought on Wikipedia that the encyclopaedia should not list 100% of what exists in the world, limit it to what is important, or notable. User:AlMac|^(talk) 03:07, 26 January 2006 (UTC)
