From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Hello PeadarMaguidhir, and welcome to Wikipedia! The first thing you should know is that we encourage you to be bold. Feel free to edit and improve articles, by clicking any 'edit' link.
If you'd like to test what Wikipedia can do, check out the sandbox - just type and save the page and your text will appear. That's the beauty of a Wiki.
For more information check out our tutorial - it's designed with newcomers in mind, as is the help section. If you'd like to get involved with current projects, have a look at the Community Portal. There are always tasks for users to do, ranging from copyediting to expanding stubs.
I hope you'll enjoy your time here, but be warned, it can become addictive! Feel free to message me, I'm more than happy to help. As an added tip, sign any message you post so users know that you've said it. To do so is delightfully simple, just use the wikicode ~~~~.
Once again, welcome! James Kendall [talk] 13:48, 14 February 2006 (UTC)
Thank you for the warm welcome!
Now that I have understood the system, I would like to identify myself as writer of paras 1,3 and 4 on "Rosmuck" page; as well as of para "Langer" (as well as one other, which I can't remember) on Hiberno-English page.
Le gach dea-ghuimhe (with every warm wish:prayer),
Peadar

[edit] Buóichas
Go raibh maith agat as an sár-obair atá déanta agat ar an alt Rosmuck. I have done some work on several of the Gaeltacht articles. Perhaps we may be able to collaborate in future.--File Éireann 17:42, 18 June 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Obair
Ba bhreá liom é! Peadar--PeadarMaguidhir 15:28, 19 June 2006 (UTC)
[edit] re: email
I'm not sure if it works on my talk page, but if you go to your preferences (Special:Preferences), there should be an email section in the 'user profile' part. You'll need to click a button to verify your email address, which will send an automated email to you with a link that you need to click.
Hope that helps :) James Kendall [talk] 14:10, 27 June 2006 (UTC)
[edit] re: red sig link
A red link in Wikipedia means that the page has yet to be created. If you create a userpage for yourself (User:PeadarMaguidhir), then the link will turn blue. Alternatively you can use HTML coding like I do to change the font colours.
An example would be:
<font color="red">Peadar</font><font color="purple">Maguidhir</font>
which would produce: PeadarMaguidhir. You may also find this list of colours useful.

[edit] Edit to Hiberno-English
(Could this come from the French "guerrier," (warrior), via the Hugeunots???--PeadarMaguidhir 07:49, 13 July 2006 (UTC)
I'm afraid this has no place in the article proper. It's the sort of thing you should discuss on the talk page - the main page being for things we do know (or think we do) - including occasional statements that no one does. garik 09:17, 13 July 2006 (UTC)
OK Thanks for the Explanation (I'm still a bit new to Wikipedia.
- Hi. I just got the following message from someone. I should say I disagree with them - I think they just missed the point of my edit. However, I do apologise if I seemed a bit blunt or unpleasant in my deletion of your bit or in my message: that certainly wasn't my intention.
- You got so precious with nice PeadarMaguidhir about "gurrier", in which he is correct. So I removed "Aye" on the same principle. --—The preceding unsigned comment was added by 86.42.150.148 (talk • contribs).
- All the best. garik 13:48, 21 July 2006 (UTC)
As this first arose due to ignorance on my part (new to Wikipedia),and bearing in mind that there is a para on the Discussion Page on this subject, I suggest we close the chapter here.--PeadarMaguidhir 13:51, 27 July 2006 (UTC)
