[edit] Welcome!
Welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you enjoy the encyclopaedia and want to stay. Before getting too in-depth, you may want to read about the simplified ruleset. If you need help on how to title new articles check out the naming conventions, and for help on formatting the pages visit the manual of style. If you need help look at Wikipedia:Help and the FAQ; plus, if you can't find your answer there, check the Village Pump (for Wikipedia related questions) or the Reference Desk (for general questions). There's still more help at the Tutorial and Policy Library. Also, don't forget to visit the Community Portal. And if you have any more questions after that, feel free to post them on my user talk page.
[edit] User accounts: increased anonymity and editing benefits
You don't have to log in to read or edit articles on Wikipedia, but you may wish to create a account. Doing so is free, requires no personal information, and provides several benefits, including:
- The use of a username of your choice, provided that it is appropriate.
- The use of your own watchlist, which shows when articles you are interested in have changed.
- The ability to create new pages.
- The ability to rename pages.
- The ability to edit semi-protected pages.
- The ability to upload images.
- The ability to customize the appearance and behavior of the website.
- Your IP address will no longer be visible to other users.
[edit] Additional tips
Here are some extra tips to help you get around in Wikipedia:
- If you want to play around with your new Wiki skills the Sandbox is for you.
- If you ever think a page or image should be deleted, please list it at the votes for deletion page. There is also a votes for undeletion page if you want to retrieve something that you think should not have been deleted.
- If you're still entirely confused, or would like to get a better grasp of your wikipedia skills, check out the New contributors' help page.

[edit] Your edit to Oak Ridge, Tennessee -- priceless
Your edit[1] to Oak Ridge, Tennessee:
- Sound editorial judgment
- Priceless edit summary:
- "Some people' also claim that Nostradamus predicted my face wrinkles, but the cites for that are equally unencyclopedia. Folk tale about Hendrix removed."
Thanks for contributing -- you made my day. --A. B. (talk) 15:13, 29 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Your additions to the Morristown, Tennessee article
I enjoyed reading what you added. You mentioned Goodspeed as the source of at least some of the material. Are there other references to cite?
PS - Many people believe that John Hendrix prophesied the establishment of Oak Ridge. I know there are several credible published accounts by people who recounted his prophetic statements, but they aren't cited here yet. ;-)

[edit] Civility
Try to keep a respectful and civil tone in your edit summaries. Calling others morons etc. causes an atmosphere of conflict and stress. See Wikipedia:Civility for Wikipedia's policy on this issue. --Ezeu 20:57, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
