Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. If you ever need editing help, see Wikipedia:How to edit a page. You can also see how to format pages at Wikipedia:Manual of Style. You can practise this in Dundee FC, an non-wiki-formated article! If you need pointers on how we title pages visit Wikipedia:Naming conventions. If you have any other questions about the project then check out Wikipedia:Help or post a question in my talk page.

Arabs frae Dundee
Hi DDuck, how r u doing? Hope you don't mind but I added some stuff to the Dundee United FC article. There was actually already a Dundee United article but I have merged them at your article which is the better name for such a topic.
Hope you enjoy adding to Wikipedia!
PS Are you an Arab yersel? Big Jim Fae Scotland
- I'm beginning to get the hang of this thing. I'm amazed how sometimes I finish working on something and just minutes later someone is adding bits, moving pages, and wikifying away. To answer your question, I no football fan, but everything to do with my home town, Dundee, holds some significance for me. :) - Iain
Bonnie Dundee
Hi again Iain, how r u? Just to let you know you will have loads of punters on at you moaning about yer Bonnie Dundee article cos it is out of context. I think you should add a bit about it before reproducing the text. Just a suggestion mate. :o) Big Jim
- Hi Big man, I'm fine. I've added a short introduction, with links to all over. That should keep a'body happy. Dduck 20:40, 10 Nov 2003 (UTC)
Hi, it seems some of the information you contributed was listed at Wikipedia:Request for immediate removal of copyright violation and has since been removed. Please note that it is not permitted to copy from other sites unless you have permission to use that material under the terms of the GFDL. See Copyrights for further information.

- Well it wasn't technically a copyright violation, but it was borderline plagiarism. I rewrote the material and added a reference to each article so that it can no longer be considered to be plagiarism. Dduck, please be more careful in the future. :) --mav 03:39, 25 Jan 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 2000 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)
