By Andre, for those that are generally misdirected:
- You sent this message to Wikipedia, the Free Encyclopedia (http://en.wikipedia.org). We provide articles about all kinds of subjects through the internet. It seems your mail was intended for another organisation, company or institution. This might have been one that we have an article on, or one that is advertising through a website that copies our content. We have no connections with this organisation, and are thus unable to help you any further.
By Ben, for questions of creating accounts:
- Anyone can become an editor and contributor to Wikipedia. Please visit <http://en.wikipedia.org/Special:Userlogin> to create an account. We thank you for your interest.
By Keith, for those who ask those sorta-random questions:
- For future reference, you can ask questions like this on the Reference Desk. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Reference_desk).
By Gerrit, for AOL Users:
- Your computer is identified by an IP address. However, AOL assigns IP addresses dynamically: the IP address you currently have has previously been used by someone else. The message was not meant for you. You can prevent seeing those messages in the future by creating an account and logging in.
By Me, for Citation-related questions:
- You also might find http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Citing_Wikipedia useful.
By Alphax, for Reference-desk questions:
- I am afraid that the Wikimedia Foundation is not able to help you with this request. As an organization that relies entirely on volunteer work, Wikimedia doesn't have the resources to answer questions unrelated to its projects. However, there is a page on the English Wikipedia where various volunteers try to answer questions such as yours, called the Reference Desk <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Reference_desk>. Try to be as specific as you can to aid them. Remember that there is no guarantee that they can provide an answer!
