User talk:Riki

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hi Riki, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thanks for your contributions to the coolest online encyclopedia I know of =). I sure hope you stick around; we're always in need of more people to create new articles and improve the ones we already have. You'll probably find it easiest to start with a tutorial of how the wikipedia works, and you can test stuff for yourself in the sandbox. When you're contributing, you'll probably find the manual of style to be helpful, and you'll also want to remember a couple important guidelines. First, write from a neutral point of view, second, be bold in editing pages, and third, use wikiquette. Those are probably the most important ones, and you can take a look at some others at the policies and guidelines page. You might also be interested in how to write a great article and possibly adding some images to your articles.

Be sure to get involved in the community – you can contact me at my talk page if you have any questions, and you can check out the village pump, where lots of wikipedians hang out and discuss things. If you're looking for something to do, check out the community portal. And whenever you ask a question or post something on a talk page, be sure to sign your name by typing ~~~~.

Again, welcome! It's great to have you. Happy editing! --Spangineer (háblame) 10:54, Jun 16, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Redundant ategories

If you add a category like Category:Dutch guitarists, we don't need Category:Dutch musicians anymore because the former is already part of the latter. Rl 11:34, 13 August 2005 (UTC)

Thanks Rl, I hadn't noticed. Riki 11:49, 13 August 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Censoring on Wikipedia:Announcements

You wrote: Hi David, why are you censoring my contribution to Wikipedia:Announcements without any justification? Riki 12:15, 22 December 2005 (UTC)

Because the announcements page is not an appropriate place for it. The ramblings of a half-witted blogger who has nothing better to do with his time do not constitute suitable material for the announcements page, or for any other page that I'm aware of. That's all I want to say about the topic for now. David Cannon 12:20, 22 December 2005 (UTC)
You're welcome. For my part, I'm sorry I wasn't in a very good mood when I wrote that explanation. While I stand by the content of what I said, I regret the tone I used, and apologize. David Cannon 22:10, 22 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Marines in Iraq

On the Marine Corps page under the heading "Iraq War", you made a contribution addressing the Haditha investigation. Do you really think this is necessary?? The article is supposed to highlight Marine Operations and seeing as this incident was limited to a small number of Marines and reflects poorly on the Marine Corps, it seems to me to be superfluous.

[edit] List of biopics

I like what you have done with List of biopics. Would you might if I changed the date links from the general 2004 style to the film specific style 2004? Answering here is fine. Bejnar 01:18, 6 June 2006 (UTC)

No problem, Bejnar, go ahead. Thanks, Riki 13:21, 6 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] John Irving

You might want to consider adding to the recurring themes section about John Irving's novels which of his books have a novelist as a main character.
