[edit] Welcome!

Hi, Flamepainter88, Welcome to Wikipedia!


[edit]

Here are some tasks you can do:

I hope you like this place--I sure do--and want to stay. If you need help on how to title new articles check out Wikipedia:Naming conventions, and for help on formatting the pages visit the manual of style. If you need help look at Wikipedia:Help and The FAQ , plus if you can't find your answer there, check The Village pump (for Wikipedia related questions) or The Reference Desk (for general questions)! There's still more help at the Tutorial and Policy Library. Plus, don't forget to visit the Community Portal. And if you have any more questions after that, feel free to post them on My User talk Page.

Additional Tips:

Here's some extra tips to help you get around in the 'pedia!

  • If you made any edits before you got an account, you might be interested in assigning those to your username.
  • If you want to play around with your new Wiki skills the Sandbox is for you.
  • You can sign your name using three tildes, like &#126&#126~. If you use four, you can add a datestamp too.
  • You may want to add yourself to the New User Log
  • If you ever think a page or image should be deleted, please list it at the votes for deletion page. There is also a votes for undeletion page if you want to retrieve something that you think should not have been deleted.

You got an interesting angle in the station wagon picture you added to the Impala page! However, it's technically a Caprice. Note the Caprice emblem (a modified fleur-de-lys) on the front of the hood. The Impala had nothing there, but the Chevy bowtie in the middle of the grille. I changed the caption accordingly. Thanks.

[edit] Image Tagging Image:Photo 73impwagonangie.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Photo 73impwagonangie.jpg. I notice it currently doesn't have an image copyright tag, so its copyright status is therefore unclear. Could you add a tag to let us know its copyright status? (You can use {{gfdl}} if you release it under the GFDL, or {{fairuse}} if you claim fair use, etc.) If you don't know what any of this means, just let me know where you got the images and I'll tag them for you. Also, please leave this information on the image page. Otherwise, see Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use. Thanks so much.

Image deletion warning Image:Meet1 thumb.jpg has been listed at Wikipedia:Images and media for deletion. If you feel that this image should not be deleted, please go there to voice your opinion.

[edit] DD&F8R

Hi, Flamepainter88,

This message is in regards to the page DD&F8R. The way I read it, it was created so that if somebody typed in the shorthand, they would be able to get to the real article.

There is a WP command you can use that can streamline the process, detailed here: WP:R

Happy editing!! Kareeser|Talk! 20:15, 12 February 2006 (UTC)

  • In fact, I already fixed it for you - I made it into a redirect, and I was about to leave a message for you explaining how to do it yourself.It's like this: #redirect [[name of proper article]]. DS 20:19, 12 February 2006 (UTC)
