From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
[edit] Welcome!
Welcome to Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia! You don't have to log in to read or edit articles on Wikipedia, but creating an account is quick, free and non-intrusive, requires no personal information, and gives you many benefits, including:
- The use of a username of your choice, provided that it is appropriate.
- The use of your own personal watchlist to which you can add articles that interest you.
- The ability to start new pages.
- The ability to rename pages.
- The ability to edit semi-protected pages.
- The ability to upload images.
- The ability to customize the appearance and behavior of the website.
- The eligibility to eventually become an administrator.
- Your IP address will no longer be visible to other users.
We hope that you choose to become a Wikipedian and create an account. Feel free to ask me any questions you may have on my talk page. By the way, make sure to sign your posts and comments with four tildes (~~~~), which will let others know who left it. thunderboltz 16:31, 4 June 2006 (UTC)
Okay, okay. Maybe it sounded a little rude. I'm not sure what you mean by "accidentally left in". My reading of Wikipedia's guidelines leads me to believe that even if a user places the {{hangon}} template in the article they are still obliged to leave in the original speedy delete nomination.

No worries. I'm actually not Cin- and I pulled the tag, he didn't. He asked me to help him clean things up and fill it out because he had to take off. So he didn't remove it.
BTW ... just a note before I'm asked ... I don't use a username because I don't care about starting new articles, and it's a subtle nose-thumbing at the overzealousness many people take the [citation needed] tag and original research directives to -- thus I consider refusing to have a username a form of reductio ad absurdum in that if I used a name, I'd be asserting it as a moniker for myself only by myself, and therefore it would be original research unless I uploaded a birth certificate, which would put me at risk for identity theft. Until the [citation needed] tags littering this place like cigarette butts calm down and people stop demanding citations for a clear Colorado sky being blue, I may take on a name again. I have a static IP address, so this is good enough, and the IP address itself is documentable by Comcast. Other than that, I'm just me [citation needed].
