[edit] Welcome

Hello, welcome to Wikipedia.

Here are some tasks you can do:

You might find these links helpful in creating new pages or helping with the above tasks: How to edit a page, How to write a great article, Naming conventions, Manual of Style. You should read our policies at some point too.

If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump, or ask me on my talk page. I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian!

  • You can introduce yourself on the new users page.
  • If you made any edits before you got an account, you might be interested in assigning those to your username.
  • You can sign your name using three tildes, like this: ~~~. If you use four, you can add a datestamp too.
  • If you ever think a page or image should be deleted, please list it at the votes for deletion page. There is also a votes for undeletion page if you want to retrieve something that you think should not have been deleted.

Again, welcome! Chris Roy 18:21, 11 Mar 2004 (UTC)


Oz, Err... Misteak was deliberate and not one, however spelled. The context explains why. Should I change it back? ww 19:09, 2 Apr 2004 (UTC)

[edit] "Big-endian" Fibonacci coding?

Again, can you actually provide some reference that the system you describe as "big-endian" Fibonacci coding has actually seen use? Big-endian and little-endian byte-orderings came about because they were both equally good ways to handle the same situation. "Big-endian" Fibonacci coding seems markedly inferior to little-endian Fibonacci coding, since little-endian can handle the value 1 and big-endian cannot (how do you remove the leading "10" from "1"?) -- Antaeus Feldspar 00:00, 19 Feb 2005 (UTC)

[edit] nbsp

Hello. Your edit of recurring decimal prompts this comment.

"x + y = 7" sits on one line, but if I hadn't set it very close to the beginning of this sentence, there's the possibility of some reader's seeing it near the right edge of the browser window, and then "x" could appear on one line and "+ y = 7" on the next. The nbsp character prevents that. Do you object to that? Michael Hardy 23:52, 19 Mar 2005 (UTC)
