- Experiment in the sandbox.
- Follow the Simplified Ruleset.
- Try to edit from a neutral point of view.

- Eventually, read the Manual of Style and learn about the Five Pillars of Wikipedia.
- And most importantly, have fun!
If you need any help, see the help pages and glossary, add a question to the help desk, or ask me on my talk page.
I hope you will enjoy editing and being a Wikipedian. Good luck! — Bcat
I saw your edits to The Cavaliers, and I must say, good job. From looking at your userpage it seems to be a specialty of yours! Please feel free to help out in whatever way you can on other drum corps articles. I'm always looking for a few helping hands. Mr Bound 13:15, 13 September 2005 (UTC)
[edit] RE: Drum corps templates
I've been adding the new infobox to pages and have hit some snags. Some pages, such as the Anaheim Kingsmen Drum and Bugle Corps, have information that can't be filled. For example, corps director. Others, such as Capital Regiment, need to have "highest placement" instead of "DCI Titles". Is there an easy way to work around this? Deleting the information doesn't work, nor does leaving the field blank get rid of it. I'm stumped, perhaps you have some ideas? Great work on the whole, though, it'll be a lot less confusing (and less intimidating for potential editors!) Mr Bound 02:37, 14 September 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Wikiproject Drum Corps
I would like to invite you to join the newly formed WikiProject Drum Corps, a WikiProject for the expansion of all things drum corps. If you'd like, add your name to the list of members, and lend a hand in some of the things we have yet to do! There's plenty lying around, but even a small contibution is very welcome. Hope to see you lending your knowledge to our growing collection of drum corps articles! Mr Bound 19:05, 15 September 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Timestamps!
Those timestamps can be generated if you sign your message with four tildes (~~~~). It'll create your signature and the timestamp. I'll mull over the infobox situation for the moment, I'm swamped in real life right now. Thanks for the reply! Mr Bound 14:16, 26 September 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Image Tagging Image:WillieB.jpg
|
Thanks for uploading Image:WillieB.jpg. I notice the image page currently doesn't specify who created the image, so the copyright status is therefore unclear. If you have not created the image yourself then you need to argue that we have the right to use the image on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the image yourself then you should also specify where you found it, i.e., in most cases link to the website where you got it, and the terms of use for content from that page.
If the image also doesn't have a copyright tag then you must also add one. If you created/took the picture then you can use {{GFDL}} to release it under the GFDL. If you can claim fair use use {{Non-free fair use in|article name}} or {{fairuse}}. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.
If you have uploaded other images, please check that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, too. You can find a list of image pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --wknight94 01:38, 1 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Non-free use disputed for Image:CavaliersStandingMan.gif

Thanks for uploading Image:CavaliersStandingMan.gif. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read carefully the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content and then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies.
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 05:44, 2 June 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Non-free use disputed for Image:ScorchersDVDCover.jpg
This file may be deleted. |
Thanks for uploading Image:ScorchersDVDCover.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read carefully the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content and then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure 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 21:41, 5 June 2007 (UTC)
