[edit] An Automated Message from HagermanBot
Hello. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. You may also click on the signature button located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your name and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you! HagermanBot 02:06, 21 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] About the Adoption
I have considered adopting you, dear Hmrox, I really have. But another user seeking adoption, asked me less than an hour before you did. I thought, I could handle adopting one user, but two... No, I really think not. When I've helped this other user, he might learn much. And maybe, he will not need my help by then, and then I could help you. But I suppose their are still loads of users who still need adoption; just seek out their user-pages! I'm sorry, I really am, but I just can't adopt two users...
For the rest of it; I wish you the best of luck on wikipedia, and I hope you'll do great!

[edit] Adoption
Hello! I'm an experienced user and would like to adopt you! Please respond on my talk page. --Cremepuff222 (talk, review me!) 21:51, 25 March 2007 (UTC)
- Excellent! Your first assignment is to change your current adoption userbox to {{adoptee|Cremepuff222}}. Then, please tell me your interests on my talk page. --Cremepuff222 (talk, review me!) 22:08, 25 March 2007 (UTC)
Cool. Be sure to contribute to articles that interest you as this is the easiest way to accumulate edits. Now, what are some of the things that you would like to learn about on Wikipedia? --Cremepuff222 (talk, review me!) 22:15, 25 March 2007 (UTC)
- The latter will just take time. To learn about debates and voting, I recommend checking out WP:MOTD. This is a fun place to learn voting. Then, after you get more experienced, consider looking at various deletion databases. Learning how to become a good voter takes time and effort. --Cremepuff222 (talk, review me!) 22:21, 25 March 2007 (UTC)
There are many things that you can do! You could volunteer at the help desk, greet new users by posting {{subst:w-basic|cookies=true|heading=true}} on his or her talk page, or you could help users at CAT:HELP. If you ever find a user that's done a very good job, you could give him or her a barnstar. Or, you could drop a friendly note to a stressed user. Feel free to do what you want. --Cremepuff222 (talk, review me!) 22:36, 25 March 2007 (UTC)
