From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions.
You might find these pages useful:
You can always experiment in the sandbox.
If you like, you can introduce yourself at the new user log, or write something about yourself on your user page.
One more thing: if you leave a note on any kind of discussion page it's always helpful to sign your post with four tildes (~~~~), which is automatically converted to your username and the date and time. Don't do this in articles themselves though as they are not 'owned' by any particular contributor.
If you have any questions, see help, leave a question at the help desk, or feel free to drop me a line on my talk page.
Thanks again and happy editing!

[edit] categories
Hi - I saw you added a category link to the Aeronca article. The link you added wasn't quite right (I've fixed it). What you added was [[:category:U.S._civil_utility_aircraft_1930-1939]] rather than [[category:U.S._civil_utility_aircraft_1930-1939]] (the difference being the colon before the word category). With the colon, this is a visible link to the pseudo-article which is the category listing (and doesn't add the article to the category). This form is generally used when talking about a category in an article (which rarely comes up outside of some wikipedia maintenance pages where categories are discussed). Without the colon, it becomes invisible when you view the article text but adds the article to the category. Hope this helps. -- Rick Block 19:30, 1 Apr 2005 (UTC)
Rick,
Thanks very much and appreciate the help!

[edit] Aeronca pics
Hi Joe, just a word about the pics on the Aeronca article.
Firstly, the pic Image:3230e front .JPG is not good enough quality for Wikipedia. I have plenty of good quality pics of Aeroncas taken in England where I live and I expect you do too so there's no need for poor ones .
Secondly, you probably didn't realise that the two pics you had removed could be useful to someone, so just leave them there for someone else to enjoy (they were Image:aeronca.11AC.chief.arp.jpg and Image:aeronca.15AC.sedan.arp.jpg). So I have put back those two pics. Best Wishes - Adrian Pingstone 09:23, 26 February 2006 (UTC)
