Thanks Sarah. Just wondering though - why have you just posted this, seeing as I joined WP almost 2 years ago? Whippen (talk) 11:11, 30 January 2008 (UTC)
- I saw you on my watchlist signing up as a new member of the Australian Wikiproject and noticed you had a red linked user page and a red linked talk page, which means you don't (didn't) have a userpage and that no one has ever left you a message before, both of which are signs of new users. However, I didn't inspect your contributions and didn't realise you had started editing two years ago. Seems very odd that in the space of two years no one has ever left you a welcome message or any other sort of message...but I guess it's because you only have around 20 edits and haven't been noticed by anyone else. If you don't like the message you are welcome to remove it. Sarah 11:01, 2 February 2008 (UTC)
