Hello Chrisn4255, welcome to Wikipedia.
You might find these links helpful: How to edit a page, How to write a great article, Naming conventions, Manual of Style. You should read our policies at some point too.
If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the Help desk or (if you want a broader audience) the village pump, or ask me on my talk page. I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian!
- You can introduce yourself on the new users page.
- You can find lots more information, including open tasks and daily tips, at the Community Portal.
- You can sign your name using four tildes, like this: ~~~~.
- Before saving a page, it's a good idea to use the Show preview button to review your edits. Also, consider writing a summary for each edit.
- The Tutorial is a great way to learn the basics in a more perspicuous fashion.
Again, welcome! Chris Roy 01:29, 3 May 2004 (UTC)
Hi. I would like to nominate you for adminship. Do you accept the nomination? If you do, please leave a message on my talk page. --Lst27 21:56, 10 May 2004 (UTC)
I appreciate your invitation to nominate me as an admin, but I would like to build up some more experience before I can accept. Thank you for the thought, though. Chrisn4255 05:19, 21 May 2004 (UTC)
Re: The spelling of California Gov. Olson's first name - the state website index spells it Culburt, but if you go to the bio page it uses the Culbert spelling in the text. [1] (http://www.governor.ca.gov/govsite/govsgallery/h/biography/governor_29.html) His inaugural address has the signature spelled Culbert, which I think is probably the best source: http://www.governor.ca.gov/govsite/govsgallery/h/documents/inaugural_29.html I've also done some research on him; the newspapers of the day uniformly used Culbert as the spelling, as did his obits.

It appears I was a little hasty with my reversion. Sorry. I'll defer to you on this one. Chrisn4255 04:50, 21 May 2004 (UTC)

CML
I reviewed his edits, and he hasn't made a single constructive one (the closest I could find was changing Darth Vader's hair color to "PENISTOE"--wtf?) As such, I've blocked him for 48 hours. Hopefully, this will teach him to follow policies. Best wishes, [[User:Meelar|Meelar (talk)]]
National Leaders
I think you should look at the the National Leaders Articles. To do so go to this Article First: List of national leaders. User:Patricknoddy 12:03 July 9, 2004
Re: Edits
I didn't know about the policy - but actually I moved what is the present article from it's talk page where I waited for input in regards. There was a bit of dustup as per Ronald Reagan raping a teenager in 1952 ... so I chose to wait for about a week. Thanks for letting me know. There was no intent to decieve. - Sparky 02:12, 18 Jul 2004 (UTC)
George W. Bush
I think you should look at George W. Bush or any other president. --Patricknoddy 14:43, 20 Jul 2004 (UTC)User:Patricknoddy User talk:Patricknoddy 10:41 July 20, 2004 (UTC)
Julius Caesar pic
Hi, I don't suppose you'd be able to note a source for the Julius Caesar pic (Image:Julius_caesar.jpg) which you uploaded a couple of months back? It'd be nice to use this pic in Caesar cipher, which we're hoping to put in a Wikipedia:WikiReader, so we need to be careful about copyrights and such. Thanks! — Matt 05:40, 2 Aug 2004 (UTC)

Hi. Image:Wilbur.gif didn't seem to upload properly. If you still have a copy, would you mind uploading it again? Vacuum | tcw 03:32, Dec 6, 2004 (UTC)
Article Licensing
Hi, I've started a drive to get users to multi-license all of their contributions that they've made to either (1) all U.S. state, county, and city articles or (2) all articles, using the Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike (CC-by-sa) v1.0 and v2.0 Licenses or into the public domain if they prefer. The CC-by-sa license is a true free documentation license that is similar to Wikipedia's license, the GFDL, but it allows other projects, such as WikiTravel, to use our articles. Since you are among the top 1000 Wikipedians by edits, I was wondering if you would be willing to multi-license all of your contributions or at minimum those on the geographic articles. Over 90% of people asked have agreed. For More Information:
- Multi-Licensing FAQ - Lots of questions answered
- Multi-Licensing Guide
- Free the Rambot Articles Project
To allow us to track those users who muli-license their contributions, many users copy and paste the "{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}" template into their user page, but there are other options at Template messages/User namespace. The following examples could also copied and pasted into your user page:
- Option 1
- I agree to [[Wikipedia:Multi-licensing|multi-license]] all my contributions, with the exception of my user pages, as described below:
- {{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}
OR
- Option 2
- I agree to [[Wikipedia:Multi-licensing|multi-license]] all my contributions to any [[U.S. state]], county, or city article as described below:
- {{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}
Or if you wanted to place your work into the public domain, you could replace "{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}" with "{{MultiLicensePD}}". If you only prefer using the GFDL, I would like to know that too. Please let me know what you think at my talk page. It's important to know either way so no one keeps asking. -- Ram-Man (comment (http://en.wikipedia.org/w/wiki.phtml?title=User_talk:Ram-Man&action=edit§ion=new)| talk)
