User talk:Brambo
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Greetings!
My name is Ryan, and it's my pleasure to welcome you, Brambo, to Wikipedia! First of all, I'd like to thank you for joining the project, and contributing to articles and discussion. I hope you can continue to take part in Wikipedia, because we need more valuable editors like yourself.
If you are new and need some assistance, here are some great links to check out:
- The five pillars of Wikipedia are the primary goals and most important rules that we follow.
- These help pages are important if you'd like to learn more about specific processes.
- The tutorial is a hands-on approach to learning all about editing.
- For a "crash course" in editing, head on over to Redwolf24's Bootcamp!
- Writing a great article is a noble accomplishment. An article you start might end up on the Main Page!
- The Manual of style is an in-depth group of pages that will teach you how to make articles look their very best.
I hope you enjoy editing here, and being a Wikipedian! If you have any questions, find out where to ask a question or ask me on my talk page. Before I go, here's one more tip. When you post on talk pages, be sure to sign your name and the date by typing four tildes: ~~~~. That automatically generates your username and the date. Again, welcome, and happy editing! --Merovingian (t) (c) (e) 12:28, 22 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Album titles and links
G'day, Brambo. Well done getting infoboxes into the first two Ultravox album articles, I was planning to get in and clean them up so that's saved me a bit of work. However I note you've also changed the style of album titles on a few articles to remove italics; in fact italics is the Wikipedia standard for album titles (see WP:ALBUM) as well as for films and novels, among other things. Also, when putting in links to non-existent articles, consider the likelihood of anyone writing articles for the subjects in question; for instance under Systems of Romance, Robin Simon will probably justify his own article (I may get round to doing a stub for him myself) but Dave Hutchins may not be so likely (unless you'd like to do the honours). Anyway, those are a couple of minor points, pls don't let me discourage your continued editing of Wikipedia...! Cheers, Ian Rose 14:16, 25 June 2006 (UTC)
- Ok thanks, I didn't know that bit about italics, as for those links: I like to link to everything that seems just a bit remotely important. Now I don't know who the heck Dave Hutchins is, but he's a producer for Ultravox so in my book that makes him a bit important. Thanks again, Brambo 17:30, 25 June 2006 (UTC)
[edit] I thank you profusely
for adding to the Academy (band) article with a concise and accurate discography. Your contributions are very much appreciated. :) (Krushsister 01:20, 14 September 2006 (UTC))
- Thanks, no problem :-) I saw your post on the NWO and thought it was a great idea. Too bad one operator here thinks it isn't and has deleted the article :-(. I say we make a new and better one. Brambo 12:49, 14 September 2006 (UTC)
- But it's not deleted anymore! Not while the debate goes on, anyway. It is so great that you're a fellow NWO regular/Wikipedia editor. I would love very much so for us to collaborate on a "new and better" article. I'd love to be able to remember where exactly I got my first taste of Academy so I could go over to that site and ask whomever the MikeP equivalent of said site is, so that they can assist us in this endeavor. Do you happen to know of other NWO-like places? We could at least try to recruit assistance there on those forums. Anyway, thank you ever so. p.s.: It would be awesome if they actually did a national tour (that would totally give them the cause to stay here on the 'pedia). That might be one of our first questions. Grateful *hugs* from me. (Krushsister 05:14, 16 September 2006 (UTC))
