[edit] Welcome to Wikipedia!

Hello Maggas, welcome to Wikipedia!

Here are some tips:

• Take a look at the Simplified Ruleset.
• Read the Tutorial, How to edit a page and the Manual of Style.
• Find out how to revert, move and merge pages.
• Sign your posts on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~).
• Add yourself to the New user log and a regional notice board
• Ask questions at the Village pump or Help desk.
• Use the Show preview button
• Provide an Edit summary
• Add the correct image copyright tag to any images you upload
• Create a User page
• Be bold
• Ignore all rules

If you feel a change is needed, feel free to make it yourself! Wikipedia is a wiki, so anyone (yourself included) can edit any article by following the Edit this page link. Wikipedia convention is to be bold and not be afraid of making mistakes. If you're not sure how editing works, have a look at How to edit a page, or try out the Sandbox to test your editing skills.

If, for some reason, you are unable to fix a problem yourself, feel free to ask someone else to do it. Wikipedia has a vibrant community of contributors who have a wide range of skills and specialties, and many of them would be glad to help. As well as the wiki community pages there are IRC Channels, where you are more than welcome to ask for assistance.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask me on my talk page. Thanks and happy editing, Alphax ^τεχ 23:27, 15 September 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Invitation to join Wikipedia:WikiProject Eastern Orthodoxy

Hi there! I've noticed that you've edited articles pertaining to the Eastern Orthodox Church. I wanted to extend an invitation to you to join the WikiProject dedicated to organizing and improving articles on the subject, which can be found at: WikiProject Eastern Orthodoxy. This WikiProject was begun because a need was perceived to raise the level of quality of articles on Wikipedia which deal with the Eastern Orthodox Church.

You can find information on the project page about the WikiProject, as well as how to join and how to indicate that you are a member of the project. Additionally, you may be interested in helping out with our collaboration of the month. I hope you'll consider joining and thank you for your contributions thus far! —A.S.

[edit] Graphic of Greek borders

Did you create the graphic of Greece's changing borders which you installed at History of Greece? It has at least two errors

• The Treaty of Sevres did not give Constantinople to Greece. The Straits were made a demilitarised zone and their ultimate fate was left to be determined.
• Tenedos is shown as Greek in 1945, which is incorrect (and technically Greece did not get the Dodecanise until 1946). Adam 07:47, 13 August 2006 (UTC)

A map showing the Treaty of Sevres cannot show Constantinople and the Straits as belonging to Greece, because the Treaty didn't give them to Greece. It placed them in a "status to be determined" category. If the Greco-Turkish war hadn't happened, Greece would have kept Smyrna, East Thrace, Imbros and Tenedos, but would only have got Constantinople if the Powers decided to give it to her. I will try and make a more accurate map (although I do like your graphic device). Adam 08:35, 13 August 2006 (UTC)

I will advise when I have done one. Adam 10:07, 13 August 2006 (UTC)

My new map - can be included in several articles

I will do some research on North Epirus - I'm surprised to see we don't have an article on it, by the way. Adam 01:14, 14 August 2006 (UTC)

Our article Epirus (region) doesn't say that Greece occupied North Epirus during the Balkan Wars, but if they did they withdrew in 1913 when the region was awarded to Albania. Greece occupied the area in 1919 and set up a North Epirus Autonomous Region. But the Treaty of Lausanne gave it back to Albania and Greece withdrew in 1924. Adam 04:19, 14 August 2006 (UTC)

There is an article at Northern Epirus.--ΚέκρωΨ 06:40, 15 August 2006 (UTC)
