[edit] A welcome from Sputnik

Hi, Torc, Welcome to Wikipedia!
Hello, bonjour, salut, privyet, konichiwa, shalom, hola, salve, sala'am, bonjourno, and hi! I'm Sputnik. I noticed that you were new and/or have yet to receive any messages so I just thought I'd pop in to say "hello". We're glad to have you in our community! I hope you like this place — I sure do — and want to stay. Wikipedia can be a little intimidating at first, since it's so big but we won't bite so Be Bold and get what you know down in microchips! If you do make a mistake, that's fine, we'll assume good faith and just correct you: it'll take a few seconds maximum! I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Though we all make goofy mistakes, here is what Wikipedia is not. If you have any questions or concerns, don't hesitate to see the help pages or add a question to the village pump. The Community Portal can also be very useful. If you want to play around with your new Wiki skills the Sandbox is for you. Here are a few links to get you started:
And remember:
  • 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.
  • If you're bored and want to find something to do, try the Random page button in the sidebar, or check out the Open Task message in the Community Portal.
  • P.S. I'm happy to help new users. Feel free to leave a message on my talk page if you need help with anything or simply wish to say hello. :)

Happy Wiki-ing!

[edit] Hi there

I'm glad you decided to register and join in. We could do with better coverage of the druid world (better in the sense of more encyclopaedic, referenced, proper explanations of what it's all about etc.). One small thing: your User page is peppered with weblinks. That's not really encouraged, it loks like search engine optimisation. Better to include a short list of links somewhere, link once to each site and let people find their way around.

Is Loksbergen near Mechelen? I used to go there a lot back in my old job. I had friends in Antwerpen and St.-Niklaas. - Just zis  Guy, you know? [T]/[C] 00:04, 3 February 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for your feedback! I've takn your advice and placed some external links under the text. Loksbergen is 12 km from Diest (12 km from Leuven/Louvain) and 16 km from Hasselt. User:Torc

I've only been to Leuven a couple of times (and Louvain-la-Neuve as well). Good beer :-) - Just zis  Guy, you know? [T]/[C] 16:34, 3 February 2006 (UTC)
