Hello and welcome to Wikipedia! Hope you like it here, and stick around.
Here are some tips to help you get started:
- To sign your posts (on talk pages, for example) use the '~' symbol. To insert just your name, type ~~~ (3 tildes), or, to insert your name and timestamp, use ~~~~ (4 tildes).
- Try the Tutorial, and feel free to experiment in the test area.
- If you need help, post a question at the Help Desk
- Follow the Wikipedia:Simplified Ruleset
- Eventually, you might want to read the Manual of Style and Policies and Guidelines.
- Remember Wikipedia:Neutral point of view
- Explore, be bold in editing pages, and, most importantly, have fun!
Good luck!

Heh, I wouldn't worry too much about it, I was probably being a little too quick off the draw anyway. Have you checked out Wikipedia:WikiProject Albums? It might be worth a perusal if you haven't.

Lineage
Are you the chief archivist mentioned in Time Enough for Love who brought the Foundation's record to Tertius? Or perhaps his progenitor? Inquiring minds want to know ;-) --Uncle Ed 21:36, 2 Aug 2004 (UTC)
You're welcome!
Glad I could help. --Ðåñηÿßôý | Talk 03:08, 10 Oct 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)
albumcover
Just a note, make sure you use {{albumcover}} instead of {{fairuse}}. The latter still works, but the first one fits better for album covers. -- -- pmam21talkarticles 10:07, Mar 28, 2005 (UTC)
- Put a few of the articles and categories you're having problems with on my Talk page. In my experience, adding Category:Finance (note the extra colon before category here... this keeps the tag from applying to THIS talk page, so the link is valid w/out dumping your talk page into the Finance category) to an article will lead to it showing up in the category within a few minutes. Adding sub-categories to other categories generally takes a little longer. One thing to be aware of... category names are very sensitive... case, spacing, etc. must exactly match the category you've created. Feco 00:01, 10 Apr 2005 (UTC)
