[edit] February 2007

Welcome! Thank you for adding your humour to Wikipedia, but the articles are meant to be serious, so please don't make joke edits, as you did to Dean Cook. Some readers looking for a serious article might not find them amusing. If you'd like to experiment with editing, try the sandbox, where you can write whatever you want (as long as it's not offensive). You might also want to check out Wikipedia:Bad Jokes and Other Deleted Nonsense. Matt J User|Talk 11:57, 13 February 2007 (UTC)

I initially copied the Dean Cook article to my userspace so that it would be accessible to you for your exams, but I've since decided to just delete it instead. Frankly, I find it extremely unlikely that you need that for school, but just in case you do, I've emailed it to you. If you still need to post it to the web somewhere, I suggest wikispaces. Please don't re-add it to Wikipedia. Thanks.--Kchase T 12:34, 13 February 2007 (UTC)
