[edit] Welcome Response

Hi! You didn't do anything wrong. I'm just welcoming users who don't already have welcome messages on their talk pages. Sorry if I caused you any trouble. I do enjoy your contributions here! --Db099221 16:59, 22 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Correct way to write this reference.

I am currently working on the Elvis Presley article. I do have a problem. I want to use the letter that Elvis wrote to President Nixon as a source. The problem is that I have no clue how the reference should look like. I found a transcript of the letter at the site of The National Archives. I will write the reference here: Is it OK?[1]

Does the reference look OK? I haven't written any date because they only know when the White House received the letter, not when it was written.

Thanks!

OK! I have no idea why the reference does not appear. I will do a "syntax-error" so it will appear.
ref>"Elvis Presleys letter to President Richard Nixon" by Elvis Presley, The National Archives</ref
You put <ref>[http://www.archives.gov/exhibits/when_nixon_met_elvis/letter.html "Elvis Presleys letter to President Richard Nixon"] by Elvis Presley, ''The National Archives''</ref>, then under a subtitle "Notes", put in <references/>, which will give you:

Notes:

  1. ^ "Elvis Presleys letter to President Richard Nixon" by Elvis Presley, The National Archives

[edit] Article proposed for deletion

I have proposed your article Elvis Presley/Cult-section for deletion as it is redundant and provides no further information than the main Elvis Presley article. This article is also orphaned, meaning there are no Wikipedia articles that link to it. Which means it cannot be found with out searching for it or prior knowledge of it's existence. Please do not take offense to this notification, it is provided for your convenience. Pretender2j 12:09, 14 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Signing comments

Hello. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. You may also click on the signature button Image:Wikisigbutton.png located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your name and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you. The Evil Spartan 21:26, 10 September 2007 (UTC)

In recent posts on talk pages, your signature does not include a link to your user page or to your talk page. You're probably either typing your name followed by five tildes, you've made a custom signature that does not include a link, or your are typing out the whole thing each time. It's nice for other users to be able to just follow a link to your user page or have links to both your user page and your talk page, so I suggest that you use the four tildes in a row ~~~~ or change your custom signature to incorporate a link. - Enuja (talk) 21:16, 12 January 2008 (UTC)
Rumble, can you please take heed of the above comment by Enuja, it's an important part of discussion on Wikipedia. Signing your posts properly is something you really need to get the hang of, and you're currently not doing it on FPC. —Vanderdecken∴ ∫ξφ 12:10, 3 February 2008 (UTC)
In that case, go to Preferences, find the Signature box, delete anything that's in it, type PureRumble instead and untick the box which says Raw signature. Then click the Save button and your sig should now work. —Vanderdecken∴ ∫ξφ 15:16, 3 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Re: A FPC notification.

Thanks for the heads up. I must say I'm a little puzzled why you notified me, given I said I was going to oppose, but thanks nonetheless. --jjron (talk) 05:02, 3 February 2008 (UTC)
