[edit] Welcome to Wikipedia!
Dear Jcarr99,
Welcome to Wikipedia, a free and open-content encyclopedia. I hope you enjoy contributing. To help get you settled in, I thought you might find the following pages useful:
- Five Pillars of Wikipedia
- Community Portal
- Frequently Asked Questions
- How to edit a page
- How to revert to a previous version of a page
- Tutorial
- Copyrights
- Shortcuts
If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the New contributors' help page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type {{helpme}}
on your user page, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions.
If you are unsure of how to do something, you are welcome to ask a more experienced user such as an administrator. One last bit of advice: please sign any discussion comment with two hyphens followed by four tildes --~~~~
. The software that runs Wikipedia will automatically convert this into a signature which contains your username and the date and time you posted the message, so other users don't get confused.
I hope I have not overwhelmed you with information. If you need any help just let me know. Once again welcome to Wikipedia, and don't forget to tell us about yourself on your userpage. Please add {{User:PEAR/welcomed}}
to your userpage.

[edit] License tagging for Image:A3a.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:A3a.jpg. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.
For more information on using images, see the following pages:
This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 02:04, 14 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Your edits to automotive articles
Please do not delete   marks from numbers and units, as this prevents unawanted line breaks. Numbers and units are supposed to have a space between them, as established in Wikipedia's style guide. Also, do not turn PS into hp, all metric hp notations are to be labelled PS, and litres, when applied to automotive engines, are to be written as L (in the more specific automotive style guides). Diesel is supposed to have a capital letter, as the engine is named after its creator, Rudolf Diesel. --Pc13 13:18, 14 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] 'Show preview'
Hello, I noticed you were doing several edits in the same article in a short period of time. It would be nice, if you would use the 'show preview' button for future edits (as seen on picture), because every change on an article is saved seperatly on the WP-database. That way you help to keep the page history viewable and release server stress.
Thank you. --BSI 14:03, 14 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Dannii Minogue article
Hello. Thanks for contributing to the Dannii Minogue article, but please cite your sources when discussing feature single releases. It is usually best to wait for official confirmation from Minogue's management or record label before adding it to the article. If you have any questions, please feel free to leave me a message on my talk page. -- Underneath-it-All 20:43, 16 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Orphaned non-free media (Image:Dannii Minogue.jpg)
Thanks for uploading Image:Dannii Minogue.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot 15:06, 25 October 2007 (UTC)
