[edit] Welcome!

Hi fellow Wikipedian, and a warm welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you have enjoyed editing as much as I did so far and decide to stay. Unfamiliar with the features and workings of Wikipedia? Don't fret! Be Bold! Here's some good links for your reference and that'll get you started in no time!

Most Wikipedians would prefer to just work on articles of their own interest. But if you have some free time to spare, here are some open tasks that you may want to help out :

  • RC Patrol - Keeping a lookout for vandalism.
  • Cleanup - Help make unreadable articles readable.
  • Requests - Wanted on WP, but hasn't been created.
  • Merge - Combining duplicate articles into one.
  • Wikiprojects - So many to join, so many to choose from...Take your pick!

Oh yes, don't forget to sign when you write on talk pages, simply type four tildes, like this: (~~~~). This will automatically add your name and the time after your comments. And finally, if you have any questions or doubts, don't hesitate to contact me on my talk page. Once again, welcome! =)- Mailer Diablo 17:53, 13 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] In Re: Snape

You recently edited the Snape article on the subject of casting a Patronus, saying it was not stated that he was the only one; you also added the caveat that it could have been in an interview you missed. The statement has a reference, that reference to a webchat with JK Rowling, and if you go to that webchat, on page 11 you would see the following exchange:

Samantha: Was Snape the only Death Eater who could produce a full Patronus? J.K. Rowling: Yes, because a Patronus is used against things that the Death Eaters generally generate or fight alongside. They would not need Patronuses.

The assertion was referenced. Magidin (talk) 14:45, 25 February 2008 (UTC)

My apologies. I was working on the fly and missed the reference note.Doc W (talk) 02:24, 26 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] E.E. Smith article Reference

You have stated that you had located a copy of the 1947 Campbell/Smith letter referenced in the article on E.E. Smith. I am very interested in obtaining a copy of the letter. Can you help me? Wysoed (talk) 23:40, 7 May 2008 (UTC)
