Hello Schnits, welcome to Wikipedia.

You might find these links helpful: How to edit a page, How to write a great article, Naming conventions, Manual of Style. You should read our policies at some point too.

If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the Wikipedia:Help desk or (if you want a broader audience) the village pump, or ask me on my talk page. I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian!

  • You can introduce yourself on the new users page.
  • You can find lots more information, including open tasks and daily tips, at the community portal.
  • You can sign your name using four tildes, like this: ~~~~.
  • Before saving a page, it's a good idea to use the Show preview button to review your edits. Also, consider writing a summary for each edit.
  • The Tutorial is a great way to learn the basics in a more perspicuous fashion.

Again, welcome! Chris Roy 01:09, 3 May 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Penhold

Hi Nathan, do you release your Image:Sunset over Penhold.jpg into the public domain, license it thru Creative Commons, or is it just used with permission? Please respond at user_talk:zanimum. -- user:zanimum

I've marked it on its page, so that everybody knows. There's a movement going on to make sure every image lists its source. -- user:zanimum

[edit] Democratic Socialism vs. Social Democracy

Social Democrats try to create a slightly more egalitarian society within the confines of Capitalism. Democratic Socialism tries to work within the confines of Capitalism, to eventually surpass it and create Socialism. Within these trends, there are of course rightist and leftis parties that are very different from the ideas of the whole. Hence, there is overlap, but they are still distinct traditions.--Che y Marijuana 04:52, Mar 31, 2005 (UTC)

Indeed, while many of the current Social-Democratic parties arose out of Democratic Socialist parties, they are indeed different. Democratic Socialism is primarily associated with the Marxist (used loosely) parties of the Second International and their ideological heirs, whereas Social-Democrats tend not to buy into that communism jibber-jabber. Dig? --VMC

[edit] They're back

Please revert Saskatchewan Party if you have a chance. CJCurrie 23:50, 25 June 2006 (UTC)

Please be very cautious with any reverts of Saskatchewan Party or similar articles, and please refer to Wikipedia:Conflict of interest since you have admitted on your Talk:Schnits page that you have 'canvassed and worked' for the Saskatchewan New Democratic Party in the past. CJCurrie's request of you is completely innappropriate.

Due to any bias on my part that is why *I* cite anything I edit. Let me also indicate any NDP work I have done, was done for the Federal party, which is of a clearly different ideological stroke than it's provincial counterparts. -Schnits.

Your on the provincial youth wing of the NDP. Would that not count as work for the provincial NDP? Mknight1971 11:46, 26 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Loveatfirstbite.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Loveatfirstbite.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. malo (tlk) (cntrbtns) 02:14, 11 April 2007 (UTC)

I've put the template on the image, you'll just need to specify the source because I don't know where it came from. -Royalguard11(T·R!) 03:27, 15 February 2008 (UTC)
