If you do make a mistake, that's fine, we'll assume good faith and just correct you: it'll take a few seconds maximum! Here, however, are a few links to get you started:

There are lots of policies and guidelines to get to grips with but they all make your life easier and your stay more fun in the long run. If you have any questions, feel free to leave me a message on my talk page or add {{helpme}} to your userpage - someone will come very, very quickly to your aid.

[edit] Neurophone article AFD

Someone is trying to delete an article about the Neurophone which was tested at Tufts, can you make a vote and write at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Neurophone. Do you know of anyone at Tufts that can get a copy of the test so that a writer can write an article about it in a magazine? Then we can use that magazine article to backup the wikipedia article. --JimmyT 12:05, 17 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] In the Pale Moonlight

You recently added to the article that it's considered one of the best in Star Trek. For what's it's worth I agree wholeheartedly, but you can't just add something like that to the article. Who says it's good? You? Who are you and why does your opinion count more than person A who hates the episode?

You need to find a reputable source, preferably a website that can be linked to that says this is one of the best episodes if you want to add such a claim to the article. Then, when you add it, you can add the link as well. See WP:V for more info on verification. - Hayter 22:15, 7 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Gargoyles (TV series)

I left the link, but none of the information in the Wiki articles cites it. If actual citations were created (with <ref>...</ref> and {{footnotes}}), then it could be removed from the External links section without losing the reference value. -- JHunterJ 10:56, 1 August 2006 (UTC)

And now I've dressed it up a bit. There was even a (wasted) citation already, which was invisible without the footnotes template. I think it keeps Ask Greg prominent enough, yes? -- JHunterJ 15:59, 1 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Project Orion Disambiguation

I (at the time 209.172.11.17) made some edits to the project Orion disambiguation page, mainly to correct the page wich incorrectly said that NASA project to go to the moon again is called orion, it is not, the Crew Exploration Vehicle is called orion [1]. But I don't think that it is a good idea to claim that any specific project is called that, in fact, the program that will take us to the moon and moon and later to Mars, using the orion among other things is the Constellation Program . Note, the last link also talks about the orion being the name of the Crew Exloration Vehicle and not a project or program name and it is a citation from NASA.

Note, I also added some information to this extent to the talk page associated with that page so that hopefully people would look at that before reversing my changes.

The rest of the changes I made were for grammer or flow, and include the changing of 'programmes' to programs' because it is used much more frequently throughout wikipedia, and I think that it will help usability to have one spelling of the word.

I removed also from one of the options on the list because it seemed silly to be treating a bulleted list like a paragraph

I also changed the description of Project Orion to more accuratly display the true description of the project name, as stated on the wikipedia page about it, and to be consise.

About the only stylistic change I made to the page was to remove the years from the last link for project orion, I thought listing those years there was unimportant. I can go either way with that, and I don't know wich way would be better.

[edit] Ray Gunn

[edit] Ray Gunn

I have added a "{{prod}}" template to the article Ray Gunn, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but I don't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and I've explained why in the deletion notice (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may contest the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.
