Greetings 172.143.19.100, and Welcome to Wikipedia!

Please remember to sign your name on talk pages by clicking Image:Signature icon.png (or by typing four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name and the date.

You might want to start with the Wikipedia Tutorial, it has loads of very helpful information, and links to more in-depth information if you get the "WikiBug" like many of us do. Finally, please do your best to always fill in the edit summary field.

I'm including some useful links to help you get started. If you have any questions, feel free to head over to my Talk page and ask!

Happy editing! - ArielGold 16:29, 26 July 2007 (UTC)


I notice you're doing a lot of work to the Continuity Irish Republican Army article. Thank you! It is users like you that help update and keep the encyclopedia informative! However, your recent edits indicate that you're unfamiliar with the policies, and the formatting of Wikipedia, which is natural, so I'm including some helpful links for you below. Enjoy!

(P.S. Do not indent sentences. Wikipedia uses special scripts, and indentation results in those funny looking boxes. Use a colon (:) to make an indent.)ArielGold 16:29, 26 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Also, regarding copyrights...

I forgot to add, copyright laws do not allow users to copy and paste information from any other source, regardless of where. Please see the Wikipedia:Copyright article for more information. It appeared to me that section you were trying to add, came directly from This site. Also, please see Wikipedia:Words to avoid for more help. (Words like "I", "we", etc need to be avoided.) I would also urge you to read over the Neutral Point of View article. :) Cheers, ArielGold 16:32, 26 July 2007 (UTC)
