[edit] Welcome

Hi BeckyAnne, and Welcome to Wikipedia!

Welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you enjoy the encyclopedia and want to stay. As a first step, you may wish to read the Introduction.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask me at my talk page — I'm happy to help. Or, you can ask your question at the New contributors' help page.


Here are some more resources to help you as you explore and contribute to the world's largest encyclopedia...

Additional tips...

  • Please sign your messages on talk pages with four tildes(~~~~). This will automatically insert your "signature" (your username and a date stamp). The Image:Wikisigbutton.png button, on the tool bar above Wikipedia's text editing window, also does this.

Good luck, and have fun. --Knowpedia 03:17, 29 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Good work

Just thought I'd drop a note saying welcome and keep up the good work. There's lots of work to do on the zoo articles.

Two suggestions. First, see {{Information}}. It's helpful for images. See what I did to Image:PotawatomiZooEntrance.JPG for a model to copy from. Second, you might consider uploading your free images on commons commons:Special:Upload. There are plenty of categories that those images can be put under (especially animals). Those exact same images can then be used on other language wikipedias.

Feel free to drop me a note on my talk page or the zoo project page any time. Cburnett 00:00, 5 May 2007 (UTC)

  • One problem about the commons, I dont seem to have an account there, do I have to create an account there or is there something I am not doing right?
The commons would be a new or separate account. --Knowpedia 20:41, 5 May 2007 (UTC)
Thank you for the information.BeckyAnne 19:54, 7 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Welcome to the Disney WikiProject!

Hello, BeckyAnne, and welcome to the Disney WikiProject. We hope you can enjoy yourself and work on these Disney articles with fun in mind. If you need any help, just ask one of our participants or refer to the Building Blocks of Wikipedia. Walt Disney 18:44, 7 May 2007 (UTC) (The Walt Disney thing translates to "01kkk")

[edit] Twinkle

If you're reverting vandalism a lot, you might find Twinkle useful. It's pretty easy to add to your account, and it gives you a lot of handy tools. --Haemo 23:30, 12 May 2007 (UTC)

Thank you, I have installed it, I will try it later when I have a reason to try it. BeckyAnne 01:18, 13 May 2007 (UTC)

SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. Your contributions make Wikipedia better -- thanks for helping.

If you have feedback on how to make SuggestBot better, please tell me on SuggestBot's talk page. Thanks from ForteTuba, SuggestBot's caretaker.

P.S. You received these suggestions because your name was listed on the SuggestBot request page. If this was in error, sorry about the confusion. -- SuggestBot 03:21, 9 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Mackinac Bridge

I just wanted to let you know that I re-removed the trivia item from the article. It really says nothing about the bridge. --Elliskev 18:56, 9 July 2007 (UTC)

Ok I removed it mainly because it was a un summary removal by an IP. BeckyAnne(talk) 19:05, 9 July 2007 (UTC)
Makes sense. Thanks! --Elliskev 19:13, 9 July 2007 (UTC)


[edit] Detroit Zoo

How about helping with the footnotes you want, and not just tagging. Whoever wrote it did a fair job. The tag throws the format off and makes it unreadable. Thomas Paine1776 19:15, 9 July 2007 (UTC)

It needs inline citations.. All they did was cite the book, and since I don't have the book, and no way to get the book I cant put up the inline citations. Also citations to books need to include pages. BeckyAnne(talk) 20:47, 9 July 2007 (UTC)
