Welcome!

Hello, Sonja Strom, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are some pages that you might find helpful:

• The five pillars of Wikipedia
• Tutorial
• How to edit a page
• How to write a great article
• Manual of Style

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your messages on discussion pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically insert your username and the date. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or ask your question on this page and then place {{helpme}} before the question. Again, welcome!

I've noticed you've been editing Karat (band). There are several other articles you might want to expand, such as Pankow (German band), Gerhard Gundermann, and City (band), and we don't have an article at all for Renft yet.

One suggestion: Please try to make your edits all at once (or at least make several at the same time). This makes reading the edit history of an article a lot easier, and reduces the number of pages that need to be stored on the server. Regards, ProhibitOnions ^(T) 08:35, 13 October 2007 (UTC)

Re: Image:Herbert Dreilich Wikipedia.jpg

Hello, I saw you'd uploaded the image above. Just to let you know, we need to have the exact copyright information that was on the German Wikipedia in order to use this image. The license tag you have now is incorrect, as the image does not show anything relating to Wikipedia or its software. I understand why you would use that, based on the source of the image, but unfortunately we can't use that tag. Could you provide a link to the image's page on the German Wiki? I might be able to help you figure out what to do. Thanks. Hersfold ^(t/a/c) 04:47, 13 October 2007 (UTC)

Wikimedia Commons logo

Wait, never mind, I just found it myself. In this case, we actually don't need to worry about it. The image is available on the Wikimedia Commons, a shared repository of images for all languages of Wikipedia. The same image you uploaded can be found here. Since they're duplicates, I've marked your image for deletion - if you were planning on using that image somewhere, you can use the version at the Commons in the exact same manner: [[Image:Herbert Dreilich.jpeg]]. In the future, you may want to check for the symbol at right before you upload an image you found on another language - if you see it, that means the image is already available to use under the same filename. Thanks for trying to help, though! Welcome to Wikipedia, and happy editing as always. :-) Hersfold ^(t/a/c) 05:00, 13 October 2007 (UTC)

I've already tagged it for deletion - an administrator will come by shortly to deal with it. Don't worry about it too much. If you're interested, I think you'd be a good candidate for the Adopt-a-User program - it's a tutoring program designed for new users to work with an experienced editor until they learn the ropes. It works really well. I'd take you on myself, but I've already got an adoptee and don't have much spare time anyway. In any case, see you around the wiki!
