From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Hello and welcome to Wikipedia!
Here are some tips to help you get started:
- Try the Tutorial, and feel free to experiment in the test area.
- If you need help, post a question at the Help Desk
- Eventually, you might want to read the Manual of Style and Policies and Guidelines.
- Remember Wikipedia:Neutral point of view
- Explore, be bold in editing pages, and, most importantly, have fun!
Good luck!
P.S. One last helpful hint. To sign your posts like I did above (on talk pages, for example) use the '~' symbol. To insert just your name, type ~~~ (3 tildes), or, to insert your name and timestamp, use ~~~~ (4 tildes).

[edit] Ted Kennedy
Please desist from making your POV edits to the Ted Kennedy article. RickK 23:42, Jan 7, 2005 (UTC) Explain how stating the fact that the water was six feet deep is a POV.Lokifer 23:47, 7 Jan 2005 (UTC)
I'm not. It is a fact. I'm not questioning if he had the ability to save her or not. But the fact that the water was only six feet deep appears nowhere. The article sounds like the water was deeper than it actually was.Lokifer 23:54, 7 Jan 2005 (UTC)
- Please document your contention and its significance. RickK 00:03, Jan 8, 2005 (UTC)
- As I said, please also explain its significance. You may also want to discuss this at Talk:Ted Kennedy, as I am not the only person who is questioning your motives with this edit, nor am I the first to revert it. RickK 00:09, Jan 8, 2005 (UTC)
Thank you. That wording is much more NPOV. RickK 00:50, Jan 8, 2005 (UTC)
Your original editing implied that Kennedy's attempts at rescuing her were either nonexistant or half-hearted. RickK 01:02, Jan 8, 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Hillary Rodham Clinton
Thanks! Appreciate the time & the details you spent in making the revisions. Still don't know what MERC is, though... --allie 11:17, 13 Jan 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Category:World War II veterans
This category is listed for deletion and its survival is uncertain. Please don't put more articles into it while the discussion is ongoing. This only creates more work for those of us who will end up having to empty it if the decision is to delete. -Aranel ("Sarah") 02:37, 15 Jan 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Do You Like Stalking Me?
Stop tracking my edits and reverting them. CPS 05:32, 28 Jan 2005 (UTC)
- Sticks, stones..but political affliations hurled at me don't hurt.Lokifer 08:23, 28 Jan 2005 (UTC)
- Lokifer has tracked down 5 different pages (Right-to-work law, Geto Boys, Talk:Nolan chart, Bill O'Reilly, and Wikipedia:Votes for deletion/List of ethnic stereotypes) to revert my edits. This is in the course of one or two days. I know this is his idea of being "clever" (what other people deem being an asshole), but it isn't allowed on Wikipedia and probably isn't healthy for an old fossil like him to be doing anyway. Lokifer, do you look like this? Fellow army ass-kisser CPS 04:13, 29 Jan 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Micah Wright
You should stop slandering Micah Wright. He has apologized for his actions. Further, you are adding lies and fiction to Wikipedia by creating new offenses which he has not committed. Please list credible links showing him talking to anti-war rallies or universities, for example. He also never claimed to have been ordered to execute civilians... this is pure fiction and you know it. Wikipedia is not your private right-wing blog... go elsewhere to spread your hate.
[edit] Re: Spitting Image Query
The issue I see with what you added is that you have to upgrade (i.e., pay) to see the sources. Which makes them questionable as refs. However csloat is entirely wrong in saying it "smacks of original research"- WP:OR states it can be counted on as OR if: * It introduces a theory or method of solution;
* It introduces original ideas; * It defines new terms; * It provides or presumes new definitions of pre-existing terms; * It introduces an argument, without citing a reputable source for that argument, that purports to refute or support another idea, theory, argument, or position; * It introduces an analysis or synthesis of established facts, ideas, opinions, or arguments in a way that builds a particular case favored by the editor, without attributing that analysis or synthesis to a reputable source; * It introduces or uses neologisms, without attributing the neologism to a reputable source.
Newspaper articles do not get killed by any of these. I'd ask you to go to his talk page and talk to the editor in question. If you need me to get involved, I'll help. DÃ¥vid Fuchs (talk / frog blast the vent core!) 16:05, 12 February 2007 (UTC)
