[edit] Welcome

Hello,

Welcome to wikipedia! In case you were wondering, users do have the ability to move pages, like you accidentally did with Santa Claus. I can see from your edit summaries that it wasn't malacious, so just try to be careful in the future with edits. If you'd like to test things out, please use the Sandbox, which exists specifically for testing. Here are some other pages that you might find helpful:

• The five pillars of Wikipedia
• How to edit a page
• Help pages
• Tutorial
• How to write a great article
• Manual of Style

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name and the date. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or place {{helpme}} on your talk page and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Again, welcome! -- St.isaac 21:31, 8 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] PageMove!

"had no idea how to revert it or flag it for someone else to read so I decided to just move it thinking that an editor will notice this completely random and unnecessary move, and hopefully someone else"

What do want people to look at the page for?

I'm confused.

[edit] Tip

• If you want to see some nonsense undone, I would recommend reading up on Wikipedia:Revert or ask for help at WP:HD or WP:ANI. Making an unneccesary move may make people mistake you for the vandal like it happened now. - Mgm|^(talk) 21:29, 8 August 2006 (UTC)
• Also see Wikipedia:Tutorial. - Mgm|^(talk) 21:31, 8 August 2006 (UTC)
• Unicode is almost never needed. You can find some oddball characters under the edit screen. Just click them and insert. - Mgm|^(talk) 09:37, 10 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Barack Obama

Hi. Your edit to the lead of the article invited a redundancy ("currently serving serving"), so I reverted it. I'm not entirely sure there's a big difference between "now" and "currently", but if you feel the latter is better feel free to replace it. Gzkn 06:58, 7 December 2006 (UTC)
