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:

You are welcome to continue editing articles without logging in, but you may wish to create an account. Doing so is free, requires no personal information, and provides several benefits. For one thing, if you edit without a username, your IP address is used to identify you instead.

In any case, I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your comments on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your IP address (or username if you're logged in) and the date. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or ask your question and then place {{helpme}} before the question on your talk page. Again, welcome!

[edit] Mike Richardson (publisher)

You can't just copy and paste things from the Dark Horse webpage--please see WP:COPYVIO. Besides, that material would be better placed in the article about Dark Horse Comics rather than the article about Richardson. Finally, the material isn't written from a neutral point-of-view. Please do not revert my deletion of the copyrighted material again, instead discuss your concerns on the article's talk page. Thanks. Katr67 20:28, 25 September 2007 (UTC)

The article still clearly needs to be cleaned up.Ridernyc 20:30, 25 September 2007 (UTC)

If you represent Dark Horse and can show that the material is freely licensed, please discuss this on the talk page. It still needs to be written neutrally, however, thanks. Katr67 20:32, 25 September 2007 (UTC)

Please don't remove the cleanup tags from the article without discussion. Also if you're Bubbafett, you should log in. Katr67 20:35, 25 September 2007 (UTC)
You also shouldn't remove the advert tags - as you have conflicts of interest you should read up on the guidelines linked to and as neutrality issues are clearly evident it'd be advisable to restrict yourself to adding comments to the relevant talk page. As someone from inside Dark Horse you can provide a lot of useful and valuable information that could help improve a lot of relevant entries but just dropping in PR-laden sections isn't going to lead anywhere.

[edit] Warning

Please read about our reversion guidelines. Reverting without discussion 3 times in 24 hours is likely to get you blocked. This could reflect badly on your company. Please stop and discuss your edits rather than reverting! Katr67 20:41, 25 September 2007 (UTC)

As I mentioned above, due to neutrality issues being raised you should avoid editing the page in any major way and follow WP:COI guidelines by suggesting changes on the talk page. (Emperor 17:10, 30 October 2007 (UTC))
