Hello, Shanen, and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the New contributors' help page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type {{helpme}} on your user page, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Here are a few good links for newcomers:

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and vote pages using three tildes, like this: ~~~. Four tildes (~~~~) produces your name and the current date. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. Again, welcome!

WikiProject Japan taskforces

In order to encourage more participation, and to help people find a specific area in which they are more able to help out, we have organized taskforces at WikiProject Japan. Please visit the Participants page and update the list with the taskforces in which you wish to participate. Links to all the taskforces are found at the top of the list of participants.

Please let me know if you have any questions, and thank you for helping out! ···日本穣^{? · Talk to Nihonjoe} 01:41, 8 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Please provide reference regarding patents history addition

Hi, could you please provide a reference for the information you added about the history of patents in [1]? Thanks in advance. --Chealer (talk) 06:11, 25 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Encouraging translation

Hmm... apparently the previous entry about patents was a message someone was trying to send me back in 2008 as in over four years ago... As a messaging system, this isn't so great, eh? Today's visit was actually because I wanted to find some way to encourage the translation of a fairly new article from English to Japanese. So far my struggles with the mechanisms of Wikipedia have been quite fruitless. Shanen (talk) 00:19, 28 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Recent edits to Abu-Bakr Yunis Jabr

Hello, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. I noticed that you recently added commentary to the Abu-Bakr Yunis Jabr article. While Wikipedia welcomes editors' opinions on an article and how it could be changed, these comments are more appropriate for the article's accompanying talk page. If you post your comments there, other editors working on the same article will notice and respond to them, and your comments will not disrupt the flow of the article. Thank you!

Hello, I'm Jsharpminor. I wanted to let you know that I undid one or more of your recent contributions to Wikipedia:Requests_for_adminship/AbigailAbernathy because it did not appear constructive. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks!

Let me put it more bluntly: Your comments were a personal attack, a violation of WP:NPA. Someone else already removed it, but if you do something like that again, you will be blocked. You are welcome to vote, you are not welcome to call people professional criminals and the like. Dennis Brown | 2¢ | WER 01:53, 14 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Feel free to block away. I think I can safely promise that was my last attempt at any constructive suggestion to the Wikipedia. It seems a bit pointless to attempt to write more clearly, but I did NOT say that this AbigailAbernathy person was a criminal. I wrote that I considered it a distinct possibility because her action appeared to help obvious and well-known criminals in their obviously criminal activities. I also explained why and what could be done to make the situation better, but at this point I merely hope google finishes shoving Wikipedia where the sun never shines. In a way, it's kind of funny. I think most people are basically good, and if society were more broadly democratic and participatory, then because of their general niceness things would be much nicer. In reality, the nasty dicks continue to call the shots, and the historical trend is not encouraging. (That includes google's trend to the evil side, by the way.) I can't decide if you two are nasty dicks, spammer sock puppets, or just remarkably naive morons. At this point I'm getting to be like ol' Dubya: I don't know and I don't care.
