[edit] Welcome from Redwolf24
Welcome!
Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. We as a community are glad to have you and thank you for creating a user account! Here are a few good links for newcomers:
- The Five Pillars of Wikipedia
- How to edit a page
- Editing, policy, conduct, and structure tutorial
- Picture tutorial
- How to write a great article
- Naming conventions
- Manual of Style
- Merging, redirecting, and renaming pages
- If you're ready for the complete list of Wikipedia documentation, there's also Wikipedia:Topical index.
- My own personal summarized Bootcamp is at User:Redwolf24/Bootcamp.
Yes some of the links appear a bit boring at first, but they are VERY helpful if you ever take the time to read them.
Remember to place any articles you create into a category so we don't get orphans.
I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! By the way, please be sure to sign your name on Talk and vote pages using four tildes (~~~~) to produce your name and the current date, or three tildes (~~~) for just your name. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my Talk page. Again, welcome.

[edit] Don't fix redirects that aren't broken
You made this edit to the Léon Theremin page. While your edit was in good faith, in the future please don't fix redirects that aren't broken. See Wikipedia:Redirects#Don't fix redirects that aren't broken for more information. Happy editing. -- Krash (Talk) 23:47, 7 March 2006 (UTC)
- sorry... just starting here, wanted to contribute somehow, and repairing dab links seemed a good idea. did't know about that policy (er... there are a couple of them to take care of :-). won't do it again. thanks for the message! Yaco 23:58, 7 March 2006 (UTC)
- Repairing disambiguation pages with links is important. So is disambiguation pages maintenance. Keep up the good work! Be sure to check out Wikipedia:WikiProject Disambiguation. Also, some good resources are Wikipedia:Disambiguation and Wikipedia:Manual of Style (disambiguation pages). -- Krash (Talk) 00:15, 8 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Virtual classroom
I've set up the Virtual classroom (VC), which is a forum for the discussion of advanced Wikipedia skills. It differs from the help forums on Wikipedia in that major topics of discussion are scheduled and once started remain continuous.
The reason I'm contacting you is because one of the class assignments is a comparison of our user interfaces. A lot can be learned from individual users, who usually have developed their own ways of doing things. I noticed you are an expert programmer, so you no doubt have some tricks up your sleeve. I'm hoping that you will stop by and share and compare the interfaces you use when browsing and working on Wikipedia. I've also constructed a tools page which presents everything learned from these discussions, and it is growing -- there are some pretty powerful techniques on there now. Even Interiot, Rich Farmbrough, and CBDunkerson have stopped by the VC to show off their tools and methods. It's been a lot of fun, and you are invited. The interface topics are called:
and
I look forward to seeing you there and to learning your wikiways. Sincerely, The Transhumanist 23:46, 21 November 2006 (UTC)
