From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Welcome to Wikipedia! Thanks for your contributions to the coolest online encyclopedia I know of =). I sure hope you stick around; we're always in need of more people to create new articles and improve the ones we already have. You'll probably find it easiest to start with a tutorial of how the wikipedia works, and you can test stuff for yourself in the sandbox. When you're contributing, you'll probably find the manual of style to be helpful, and you'll also want to remember a couple important guidelines. First, write from a neutral point of view, second, be bold in editing pages, and third, use wikiquette. Those are probably the most important ones, and you can take a look at some others at the policies and guidelines page. You might also be interested in how to write a great article and possibly adding some images to your articles.

Be sure to get involved in the community – you can contact me at my talk page if you have any questions, and you can check out the village pump, where lots of wikipedians hang out and discuss things. If you're looking for something to do, check out the community portal. And whenever you ask a question or post something on a talk page, be sure to sign your name by typing ~~~~.

Again, welcome! It's great to have you. Happy editing! --Spangineer (háblame) 15:13, Jun 9, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Schepens

Thanks for fixing my mistake. Guess I should have checked the page history first. Gamaliel 20:10, 7 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] John Rhys-Davis

John Rhys-Davies was actually born in Salibury, Witlshire, England. But with a name like that he must have Welsh origins. --maelor 22:59, 24 June 2006 (UTC)

Confirmed. Born in Salisbury but mother from Ammanford where he spent his early childhood.

[edit] Himmelstein

Just so you know, [1] is an exact mirror version of Wikipedia. There are quite a large number of web sites out there that are allowed to mirror our content. They usually carry an older version of it, however - sometimes updated a month or even later after our version is updated. Mad Jack 16:12, 5 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Straw poll

Hi,

Glad to see a torchwood template on your page - i created it, but i'm wondering if i should change the ironic 'Dr.Who?' to the logo as seen on the Torchwood page? Please let me know what you think. I may also change the text when the series itself begins. Thanks. Pydos 15:49, 6 July 2006 (UTC)

Yeah sounds like a good idea. I'll change it in a minute. Pydos 16:04, 6 July 2006 (UTC)
Done. Just wait for the spinoff now in case of another change. The picture is larger than i'd like, but the two tone blue/black looks quite good, but otherwise the logo is to small. Pydos 16:09, 6 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Burning at the centre of time

Thanks! It's a bit embarassing, that was: I'm a Brit myself! Must've been Americanised due to the use of certain programming/design languages. Will 17:57, 4 April 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for adding The Evil of the Daleks to Daleks in Manhattan to - I'm a 9th/10th Doctor guy, given my age - the only pre-movie episodes I ever saw were the last episode of The Claws of Axos, and the first of Remembrance of the Daleks. Thanks again! :) Will (I hope they cannot see, I AM THE GREAT DESTROYER!) 15:42, 15 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Two Questions

  • 1. How did you know the names of the six actors to appear in both Dr. Who and Star Trek. Was it personal knowledge or did you perform some kind of imdb search.
  • 2. I'm researching Edward Tudor-Pole. Apparently, he is part of a famous "Tudor-Pole" family that is descended from the Tudor royal family (either indirectly or through a bastard). You seem to know a lot about English actors. Can you shed any light on this for me or tell me where to look?

Thanks.--Dr who1975 04:20, 11 July 2007 (UTC)

You may have missed these questions what with all the bot updates to your discussion page... so here I am updating it so that you might see it.
