Welcome!

Image:Sephiroth.gif Hello, Trjumpet, Welcome to Wikipedia!
I hope you like working here and want to continue. If you need help on how to name new articles, look at Naming Conventions, and for help on formatting the pages visit the Manual of Style. If you need general help, look at Help and the FAQ, and 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 the Policy Library. Also, don't forget to visit the Community Portal — and if you have any more questions after that, feel free to post them on my talk page.
Additional tips:
Here are some extra tips to help you get around Wikipedia:
  • 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, try the Sandbox.
  • Click on the Edit button on a page, and look at how other editors did what they did.
  • You can sign your name using three tildes, like this: ~~~. If you use four, you can add a datestamp too. Always sign comments on Talk pages, never sign Articles.
  • You might want to add yourself to the New User Log.
  • If your first language isn't English, try Wikipedia:Contributing to articles outside your native language.
Happy editing!

[edit] Garbled Names

Thanks for your sharp eye for names that are misspelled on the LoPbN tree. You might like to see what i did to consolidate the info after you did the more intellectually demanding work of identifying the problems; if so, look in this list] for the pages that we both worked on in the same day, and view the Page-histories to see both the subtlety about the alpha order that you missed, and the way i set up what might be called "duplicate entries for the misinformed". (I'm going to look for more like them, outside the parts of LoPbN that i track most intensively, since i think you've done something valuable and i'd hardly be so ingrateful as to expect you to go back and do it over my way.)
Thanks again,

[edit] Ludwig I, Grand Duke of Baden

Please do not replace Wikipedia pages with blank content. Blank pages are harmful to Wikipedia because they have a tendency to confuse readers. If it is a duplicate article, please redirect it to an appropriate existing page. If the page has been vandalised, please revert it to the last legitimate version. If you feel that the content of a page is inappropriate, please edit the page and replace it with appropriate content. If you believe there is no hope for the page, please see the deletion policy for how to proceed. Thanks for contributing to Wikipedia! -- Francs2000 | Talk 23:11, 6 September 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Saint Alexander Briant, or Bryant

Hello Trjumpet, Thank you for your article on Saint Alexander Briant. Like you I am trying to do some work on Saints. I am particularly working through the 'reds' on the Forty Martyrs of England and Wales. The spelling of the Saint's surname is different, Bryant, not Briant, so I had done some work before discovering your original article.

I have just 'redirected' the Bryant spelling, which is how it appears on the Forty Martyrs page, to your article.

I find it a very humbling experience to read about their heroic lives. It has a particular resonance here, I am English. So, thank you for your good work. - Pat McDonald 17:13, 19 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Naming conventions for Saints

Hi, I've noticed that you have created a few articles from a list of Saints. When you create the articles please make sure to follow the Wikipedia naming conventions when creating the articles. Most of the red links on the page link to an older incorrect naming style. Since you are interested in the saints lives you may want to check out Wikipedia:Catholic Encyclopedia topics. Thanks! --Reflex Reaction (talk)• 22:06, 5 January 2006 (UTC)

I'm glad to see that you are still contributing to wikipedia and are still working on the Catholic Encyclopedia. Thanks and keep up the good work! --Reflex Reaction (talk)• 15:09, 26 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Request for edit summary

Hi. I am a bot, and I am writing to you with a request. I would like to ask you, if possible, to use edit summaries a bit more often when you contribute. The reason an edit summary is important is because it allows your fellow contributors to understand what you changed; you can think of it as the "Subject:" line in an email. For your information, your current edit summary usage is 0% for major edits and 37% for minor edits. (Based on the last 150 major and 83 minor edits in the article namespace.)

This is just a suggestion, and I hope that I did not appear impolite. You do not need to reply to this message, but if you would like to give me feedback, you can do so at the feedback page. Thank you, and happy edits, Mathbot 16:01, 26 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Carafa or Caraffa?

Hi. I reverted your edit of Carafa-Caraffa, and created the redirect from Carafa. In all history books I have (I'm Italian), I've never read the "Caraffa" spelling. I think it's one of the typical deformation or out-of-date version of Italian names that I find in English books. Therefore I can think that the "Carafa" diciture must be preferred. Ciao!

[edit] Hermann II, Margrave of Baden

Tried my best in translating it. I´m working on Württemberg`s rulers. Maybe we meet again.--Tresckow 07:39, 20 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Find-a-grave

Please do not add links to Find A Grave to the References or Sources section if that content was not in fact used as a reference. It can be added as an external link, but in general, the content at find a grave is not very reliable as a source. older ≠ wiser 16:40, 19 August 2007 (UTC)

Also, you have added Find-a-grave links to a large number articles which looks like link spamming to me. -- Barrylb 09:47, 20 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Ezequiel Cabeza De Baca

Hello Trjumpet. Thank you for your contributions to the biography of Ezequiel Cabeza De Baca. Regards, Masterpiece2000 (talk) 13:09, 30 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] WikiProject Germany Invitation

Hello, Trjumpet! I'd like to call your attention to the WikiProject Germany and the German-speaking Wikipedians' notice board. I hope their links, sub-projects and discussions are interesting and even helpful to you. If not, I hope that new ones will be.

[edit] Re: 1952-53 FA Cup

No problem on adding the links. I'm pretty sure got them all right. I'm interested in football history, but unfortunately (other than online) it's difficult to get that much info where I am, on the other side of the planet from the UK. Grutness...wha? 10:19, 21 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Non-league clubs who have resigned during season

Please do not keep removing clubs who have resigned during the current season. The convention to use Strike text suffices. - fchd (talk) 19:08, 6 May 2008 (UTC)

No worries. Excellent work updating the membership lists, by the way. - fchd (talk) 20:09, 6 May 2008 (UTC)
