[edit] Welcome to Wikipedia!

Hi there! Welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you like it here and decide to stick around. If you want, you could drop us a note at Wikipedia's New User log to introduce yourself.

Before you start doing a lot of editing, it might be a good idea to take a look at the Wikipedia tutorial. It'll give you a lot of basic info that can help you to get oriented on Wikipedia.

You should sign your name on talk pages by using three tildes (" ~~~ ") to give your username, or four (" ~~~~ ") to give your username and a timestamp.

If you have any other questions about Wikipedia, you can check out the Wikipedia Help, or you could add a question to the Wikipedia Help Desk. You can also ask me questions on my talk page by clicking here. Happy editing! -- gtdp [T]/[C] 19:41, 27 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Redirects

Hi there. You have been making incorrect redirects lately. Please ensure that you use this syntax for making redirect pages:

#REDIRECT [[page name]]

At the moment you are using an asterix (*) instead of a hash (#). If you want more information, please take a look at WP:RDR. Thanks for your time. -- gtdp [T]/[C] 19:41, 27 January 2006 (UTC)

Your syntax is correct now, but you've been making double redirects; a redirect should point directly to the page. For example, C. medica and Citrus medica should both point to Citron, not C. medica pointing to Citrus medica which redirects to Citron. Just a small clarification. Keep up the good work!

[edit] License tagging for Image:EPG circuit.png

Thanks for uploading Image:EPG circuit.png. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 14:06, 15 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Please use edit summaries

Hello. Please be courteous to other editors and use edit summaries when updating articles. The Mathbot tool shows your usage of edit summaries to be very low:

Edit summary usage for Mat8989: 22% for major edits and 9% for minor edits. Based on the last 150 major and 44 minor edits in the article namespace.

Using edit summaries helps other editors quickly understand your edits, which is especially useful when you make changes to articles that are on others' watchlists. Thanks and happy editing! --Kralizec! (talk) 17:17, 25 August 2007 (UTC)
