[edit] Welcome

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are a few good links for newcomers:

Here are some other hints and tips:

  • I would recommend that you get a username. You don't have to log in to read or edit articles on Wikipedia, but creating an account is quick, free and non-intrusive, requires no personal information, and there are many benefits of having a username. (If you edit without a username, your IP address is used to identify you instead.)
  • When using talk pages, please sign your name at the end of your messages by typing four tildes (~~~~). This will automatically produce your username (or IP address) and the date.

If you have any questions, check out Wikipedia:Where to ask a question, ask me on my Talk page, or type {{helpme}} on this talk page and a user will help you as soon as possible. I will answer your questions as far as I can. Again, welcome!

Thank you again for contributing to Wikipedia. I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian./wangi 21:26, 5 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Warnings

Please do not add nonsense to Wikipedia, as you did to Intel Core 2. It is considered vandalism. If you would like to experiment, use the sandbox. Thank you. (I also notice that you pranked the list of Pakistani musicians) Frankie

[edit] Please stop creating duplicate articles

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. I see you are making copies of a large number of Pakistan related articles and then creating new articles with " Limited" on the end of the article name. Please stop doing this. This is known as a cut and paste move and is the wrong way of doing it.

Normally a "move" button is available next to the "history" button at the top of the page and this should be used to move the page - this maintains the version history. This might not be available if your account is new (less than four days I think).

Another way is to create a redirect from the new name to the existing name, for example if the existing article was ZXC QWE and you wanted to be able to access it from ZXC QWE Limited then you would create "ZXC QWE Limited" with the following content:

#REDIRECT [[ZXC QWE]]

For more information please see:

Additionally renaming these articles is not required and is actually opposite to what Wikipedia policy says. Please have a read of:
Wikipedia:Naming conventions#Companies
"Convention: The legal status of the company (Corp., plc or LLC), is not normally included, i.e. Microsoft or Wal-Mart. When disambiguation is needed, legal status, main company interest or "(company)" can be used to disambiguate: for example, Halifax (bank) or Converse (company). When the legal status is used, it is abbreviated in the article title. In the article itself, the title sentence of the article should include the abbreviated legal status. For example: Generic Corp. Ltd. is largest provider of widgets in the world."

Can you acknowledge that you have read these messages? I notice that while you have stop most of the renamign etc you are still updating bits of the list of Pakistan companies to include "Limited" on the end - please do not. Thanks/wangi 20:44, 5 October 2006 (UTC)
