Don't worry too much about being perfect. Very few of us are! Just in case you are not perfect, click here to see how you can avoid making common mistakes.
If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the New contributors' help page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type {{helpme}}
on your user page, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions.
Wikipedians try to follow a strict policy of never biting new users. If you are unsure of how to do something, you are welcome to ask a more experienced user such as an administrator. One last bit of advice: please sign any discussion comment with four tildes (~~~~). The software will automatically convert this into your signature which can be altered in the "Preferences" tab at the top of the screen. I hope I have not overwhelmed you with information. If you need any help just let me know. Once again welcome to Wikipedia, and don't forget to tell us about yourself and be BOLD! *Mystic* (talk) 08:03, 23 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] License tagging for Image:Daffyinn.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Daffyinn.jpg. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.
For more information on using images, see the following pages:
This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 04:05, 9 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] The Milky Waif
Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. Thanks for writing this article. Unfortunately it doesn't conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines for new articles. However, please do not be disheartened by what may happen to your first article, if indeed it is deleted. Please continue to edit Wikipedia and add articles which conform with the inclusion criteria. For help, see Help:Contents. To find out what will probably be deleted, see Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion and Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not. Thanks, and if you have any questions, please ask them on my user talk page. To do this, click on my name (just after this sentence) and click discussion at the top and then the (+) button at the top. ffm yes? 23:55, 9 February 2007 (UTC)
I don't wanna create template "Deletionclaim" that says: "This page has been deleted due to copyright claim: ?". Any of you will think it's bogus. Zeldabalooney2006
Can I create two templates that are serious: Orphanedpage and Deletionclaim? Zeldabalooney2006
[edit] About your tags
{{orphan}} already exists. Please don't create tags suggesting all orphan pages are delete- this is not a reason for deletion. Have a read through Wikipedia:Deletion Policy. Thanks. --Wafulz 22:19, 18 February 2007 (UTC)
Oh, sorry. I've just created Deletionclaim, a template that will be marked on pages that will drive companies insane. Zeldabalooney2006
[edit] Spoiler messages
I don't know how to be an Administrator and I wanted to create good MediaWiki message: "Innapropriatetext". Trust me, "MediaWiki:Innapropriatetext" will not be a fake article, just.... Oh, I wish there was a "flag as innapropriate" square that you can choose an answer. Can someone tell me?
- Sorry, I don't understand you question. Could you explain further? Also see my message below about the MediaWiki namespace. mattbr30 12:07, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Super Demo World - The Legend Continues
I have added a "{{prod}}" template to the article Super Demo World - The Legend Continues, 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.

Go ahead. Zeldabalooney2006
[edit] Deleting your own stuff
If you want your own things to be deleted, you can just add the {{db-author}} template to the article. --Wafulz 02:43, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Re your comment at MediaWiki talk:MediaWiki
Why are empty MediaWiki messages fully protected? Zeldabalooney2006
- All pages in the MediaWiki namespace are fully protected by default because they are system messages and are part of the interface. Empty pages in this namespace do not serve any purpose and so there is no need to edit them. There is more at Wikipedia:MediaWiki namespace and Help:MediaWiki namespace. Thanks, mattbr30 11:51, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
- PS. The contents of the MediaWiki namespace are not part of the encyclopedia and are directly tied into the software used by the site. Also, please sign your comments with ~~~~ as this will automatically produce your username and the date and time you posted your message. This makes it easier to keep track of who posted what when. Thanks. For me, this produces: mattbr30 12:07, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
- What if I lost being an administrator? Zeldabalooney2006
- Here you go! Zeldabalooney2006
I see from your contributions you have created Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/Zeldabalooney2006. You have only completed step one of the nomination instructions, so your request is not currently being discussed by the community, and you will have to complete the remaining steps before your nomination is considered. Due to your relatively short time here, unfortunately you may not have the necessary experience that the community deems necessary for you to to become an administrator, and I think it is unlikely that your request will succeed at the current time. For examples of what the community is looking for in an administrator, you may want to look at the current requests for adminship, some successful requests and some unsuccessful ones. Let me know if you have any questions. Thanks, mattbr30 19:09, 8 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Springtime for Thomas
Your articles are quite interesting, but when you write them, could you ensure that they actually make sense and are written in good English? Otherwise it's probably not worth writing them as it takes more effort for other people to re-write them than it did to write the synopsis in the first place.
- Especially where The Invisible Mouse, Springtime for Thomas, High Steaks and Catty Cornered are concerned.
