SyG, well done with your first article, Four pawns attack! It's really impressive to see a new editor get the hang of wikipedia so quickly and turn out such an excellent article. Kudos to you. Don't hesitate to drop me a line if you need help with anything, though you seem to be rapidly figuring it out on your own. Here's a proper welcome msg (helpful for the links):

Hi Kchase, and thanks for your welcome! I have discovered Wikipedia 4 hours ago and it is becoming fun! Thanks for all your kind words, your advices, and all the usefull links you provided. Of course as a newbi my main problems will be about being compliant with the etiquette.

Also the "grammar stuff": I am not a native English speaker (as you probably realised already...), but I prefer to expand the English Wikipedia for ideological reasons. The danger is that I may make a lot of grammar errors, which would take a lot of time to other persons to get rid off. Do you think I should stop editing because of that, or is it bearable ?

As you have seen I have created my first "article". Well, it is more of a test for the moment but I intend to expland it much further. I have placed it in the "stub" world. I have also tried to create a link from another article towards my article, but it did not work. It is because my article was not reviewed or "too new" or something like that ? Or are the links case-sensitive ?

I have had a look at your profile. Greetings for all the good job you do, and for participating to such an ambitious project, maybe the biggest one since the French Encyclopediae in the 17s !(which kind of brought up the revolution in this country, incidentally)

Thanks for the compliments. I absolutely encourage you to stick around. Even if you make minor grammar errors, wikipedia is a work in progress and there are always lots of people correcting grammar, spelling, etc. I would be happy to proofread whatever you do. Feel free to leave a message here or on my talk page and I will get to it as soon as possible. Cheers!--Kchase T 18:55, 29 July 2006 (UTC)
