Welcome!

Hello, Minirich, Welcome to Wikipedia!
I hope you like working here and want to continue. If you need help on how to name new articles, look at Naming Conventions, and for help on formatting the pages visit the Manual of Style. If you need general help, look at Help and the FAQ, and if you can't find your answer there, check the Village pump (for Wikipedia related questions) or the Reference Desk (for general questions). There's still more help at the Tutorial and the Policy Library. Also, don't forget to visit the Community Portal — and if you have any more questions after that, feel free to post them on my New-Users' Talk Page.
Additional tips:
Here are some extra tips to help you get around Wikipedia:
  • If you made any edits before you got an account, you might be interested in assigning those to your username.
  • If you want to play around with your new Wiki skills, try the Sandbox.
  • Click on the Edit button on a page, and look at how other editors did what they did.
  • You can sign your name using three tildes, like this: ~~~. If you use four, you can add a datestamp too. Always sign comments on Talk pages, never sign Articles.
  • You might want to add yourself to the New User Log
  • If your first language isn't English, try Wikipedia:Contributing to articles outside your native language
Happy editing!

[edit] 2700-2799

Can you explain what this page is supposed to be? RickK 06:46, Mar 24, 2005 (UTC)

Hello Minirich. You have been adding some strange and confusing articles. If I understand correctly, these are clusters of postal codes in Austria? If so, these are not appropriate Wikipedia articles. You can read some guidelines for how to write acceptable articles at: Wikipedia:Guide_to_writing_better_articles. In particular, please note the importance of establishing context. I'll be deleting the articles you started, but I'll copy their content to User:Minirich/temp for your benefit. --Woggly 11:13, 30 Mar 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Warning

I'm trying to be polite. Please stop adding new articles for Austrian postal codes. SeeWikipedia:Votes for deletion/List of postal codes in Austria. Wikipedia is not the place to store any random information you might like to use. Engage in discussion, stop adding articles without community approval, or I shall be forced to block you from editing Wikipedia. --Woggly 11:51, 30 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Yes, please STOP adding these non-articles. - DavidWBrooks 18:56, 30 Mar 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Try to explain

Sorry for not responding, but i also have a RL. If you look through the Lists there are many links which are leading to an actual page, not created by me. So i belife it has a slight encyclopedic character. Even a telephone register is a kind of encyclopedia, it provides with matching name and numbers. If you have the postalcode you could easaly find the according Town and if created some additional Information. I have to confess that the names were not well choosen, so it could be mixed-up with other pages. But i insist that the pages should remain, after some slight changes. |Minirich 17:27 25 Apr, 2005 (CET)
