[edit] Howdy
Howdy — hope you're having a good Thursday. I just wanted to drop off a quick note to welcome you to Wikipedia, and to thank you for creating an account and for your recent contributions to the project.
If you haven't checked them out yet, you might want to check out some of the things your new account lets you do, such as customization (more) and your watchlist (more).
There are a few things you probably want to keep in mind as you traverse Wikipedia:
- Please write with a neutral point of view. This is perhaps the most important tenet of Wikipedia — write neutrally, and don't interject your opinion into articles.
- Please assume that people's actions are well-meant, unless they've given you ample cause to believe otherwise. On Wikipedia, this is referred to as "assuming good faith."
- If you get into disagreements with others, please try to work it out civilly and without personal attacks. If worse comes to worse, Wikipedia has methods for resolving disagreements, but it is best if the parties can work out by themselves ... and it reflects best on you, too.
- Please respect others' copyrights — that means it's not kosher to just cut and paste from webpages.
- If you need somewhere to goof around with things, try the Sandbox — please don't edit articles just to test them. But when you feel ready to, you don't need to hesitantly ask permission — if you think you've got a solid contribution to make, we encourage you to be bold.
- Please sign any message you leave on a talk page (not your contributions to an article, but any personal messages you might leave on an article's talk page or a person's talk page) with four tildes. This will sign your name. Four tildes look like this: ~~~~
More rules of the road can be found here, and a full list of policies can be found here.
If you'd like to learn more about Wikipedia, there are a few good places to start. Check out the welcome to newcomers, the introduction, and the tutorial.
If I can be of any help, please feel free to drop a line on my talk page by clicking below (if you do so, though, be sure to add my talk page to your brand-new watchlist to make it easier for you to check back there for my response). But since I'm not always available, you may get a quicker response by typing {{helpme}} on this page, and an experienced Wikipedian will shortly come around to answer any questions you may have.
Thanks ... and again, welcome! — Mike
[edit] Image copyright problem with Image:NancyWilson.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:NancyWilson.jpg. However, the image may soon be deleted unless we can determine the copyright holder and copyright status. The Wikimedia Foundation is very careful about the images included in Wikipedia because of copyright law (see Wikipedia's Copyright policy).
The copyright holder is usually the creator, the creator's employer, or the last person who was transferred ownership rights. Copyright information on images is signified using copyright templates. The three basic license types on Wikipedia are open content, public domain, and fair use. Find the appropriate template in Wikipedia:Image copyright tags and place it on the image page like this: {{TemplateName}}.
Please signify the copyright information on any other images you have uploaded or will upload. Remember that images without this important information can be deleted by an administrator. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me, or ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. --Hetar 17:51, 15 July 2006 (UTC)

- Thanks, I used an album cover instead, since the copyright status was easier to specify. Raumka 17:52, 15 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] September 2007
Please do not delete content from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Melco/Temp. Your edits do not appear to be constructive and have been reverted. If you would like to experiment, please use Wikipedia:Sandbox for test edits. Thank you. M.(er) 02:48, 24 September 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Moving of Melco/Temp
I moved this page to User:Raumaka/Melco/Temp, because it is a sandbox and not an article. M.(er) 05:05, 24 September 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Buffalo-inc.gif
Thanks for uploading Image:Buffalo-inc.gif. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot (talk) 18:38, 13 February 2008 (UTC)
