[edit] Welcome to Wikipedia!
Hello Simonfishley, welcome to Wikipedia!
It looks like you know what you're up to, the image upload tag didn't quite work, have another look, I'm sure you can sort it. Nice pic by the way.
Just in case, here's some tips:
- Take a look at the Simplified Ruleset.
- Read the Tutorial, How to edit a page and the Manual of Style.
- Find out how to revert, move and merge pages.
- Sign your posts on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~).
- Add yourself to the New user log and a regional notice board
- Ask questions at the Village pump or Help desk.
- Use the Show preview button
- Provide an Edit summary
- Add the correct image copyright tag to any images you upload
- Take a look at Consensus of standards
- Create a User page
- Be bold
- Ignore all rules
If you feel a change is needed, feel free to make it yourself! Wikipedia is a wiki, so anyone (yourself included) can edit any article by following the Edit this page link. Wikipedia convention is to be bold and not be afraid of making mistakes. If you're not sure how editing works, have a look at How to edit a page, or try out the Sandbox to test your editing skills.
If, for some reason, you are unable to fix a problem yourself, feel free to ask someone else to do it. Wikipedia has a vibrant community of contributors who have a wide range of skills and specialties, and many of them would be glad to help. As well as the wiki community pages there are IRC Channels, where you are more than welcome to ask for assistance.
If you have any questions, feel free to ask me on my talk page. Thanks and happy editing, Alf 11:49, 1 September 2005 (UTC).
[edit] Good stuff
Hi Simon, yep they seem good now. If I can politely suggest that the images are very big on the page and you might do well to tinker with them a bit, see. And I've undone my unintentonal bad of starting talk on your userpage sorry, I really should check which tab I'm on more carefully! Wikipedia:Picture tutorial. Alf 12:42, 1 September 2005 (UTC)
- I had a go at them, to see what I did use history, compare, move them around if you think the page reads better for it. I think "And don't forget the most magnificient views" has to be re-phrased to neutral, "providing scenic viewpoints over..." or similar maybe? Alf 13:00, 1 September 2005 (UTC)
- Me again,you're quite right, I found some nice source out there which backs up the greatly disliked, and now I can see why. Both sides are right though, so I've edited POV out, (you'll see that a bit see Wikipedia:Neutral point of view. You might know about a fire there that happened a few years back, did that do much damge? And check out the nice references article link. Alf 13:34, 1 September 2005 (UTC)
