What's going to keep other people from making the Faethonx accounts ahead of you and keeping them password protected so you can't?
Just stop posting your password. RickK 00:03, Feb 5, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Welcome
Welcome!
Hello, Faethon2, 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:
- The five pillars of Wikipedia
- How to edit a page
- Help pages
- Tutorial
- How to write a great article
- Manual of Style
I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name and the date. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Where to ask a question, ask me on my talk page, or place {{helpme}}
on your talk page and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Again, welcome! — Knowledge Seeker দ (talk) 04:10, 5 Feb 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Your contributions on Votes for Deletion
Hi Faethon2, please stop suggesting that articles be placed in categories that don't exist. If you feel an article belongs in a certain category, you can go ahead and edit the article yourself. Or, if you are uncertain, you can bring up the issue on the article's talk page. The Votes for Deletion is intended to discuss whether articles should be deleted or kept; see the top of that page for the five possible outcomes. And feel free to ask me if you have any questions. Oh, and to second RickK's suggestion: if people are robbing your account, don't post the password on your user page. Why would you want to, anyway? — Knowledge Seeker দ (talk) 04:10, 5 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- Is it possible to propose new categories, or categories are fixed? Faethon2 17:54, 6 Feb 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Don't vandalize other people's User pages
Unless, of course, you're really Iasson ... RickK 06:10, Feb 5, 2005 (UTC)
- thanks for your help RickK. I add [rule 6], and I think this is the most important rule. Faethon2 09:29, 5 Feb 2005 (UTC)
Whenever I want to vandalize or do an illegal action against policy, I always sign it with my key. You are allowed to talk using my account, but if you want to use my account to vandalise or do any action against policy, have in mind that this can be proved as long as your IP is logged by administrators. - why are you encouraging people to commit vandalism?

[edit] Wikinfo
G'day and welcome.
Following your comments on Wikipedia:Votes for deletion/Second cold war, I thought you might like to check out Wikinfo. It's a Wiki-based encyclopedia based on Wikipedia, and they've modified the software so that it's really easy to transwiki articles from Wikipedia provided you act before they are deleted here. They (I suppose I should say we as I'm an occasional contributor and editor) promote a sympathetic point of view rather than NPOV, and even allow signed articles.
It's not for everything, but your ideas might be far better received there, and this article might be too. Andrewa 20:25, 5 Feb 2005 (UTC)
ok...thanks ,this wikinfo seems nice to me, I am going to check it. Faethon2 17:56, 6 Feb 2005 (UTC)
