Hello, and [[Wikipedia:Introduction|welcome]] to Wikipedia! Thank you for [[Special:Contributions/{{PAGENAME}}|your contributions]]{{#if:{{{art|}}}|, especially what you did for [[{{{art}}}]]|}}. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are a few good links for newcomers:
* [[Wikipedia:Five pillars|The five pillars of Wikipedia]]
* [[Wikipedia:How to edit a page|How to edit a page]]
* [[Help:Contents|Help pages]]
* [[Wikipedia:Tutorial|Tutorial]]
* [[Wikipedia:How to write a great article|How to write a great article]]
* [[Wikipedia:Manual of Style|Manual of Style]]
Here are some other hints and tips:
* I would recommend that you get a username. You don't have to [[Special:Userlogin|log in]] to read or edit articles on Wikipedia, but creating an account is quick, free and non-intrusive, requires no personal information, and there are many [[Wikipedia:Why create an account?|benefits of having a username]]. (If you edit without a username, your [[IP address]] is used to identify you instead.)
* When using [[Wikipedia:talk pages|talk pages]], please [[Wikipedia:Sign your posts on talk pages|sign your name]] at the end of your messages by typing four tildes (~~~~). This will automatically produce your username (or IP address) and the date.
If you have any questions, check out [[Wikipedia:Questions]], ask me on {{#if:{{{1|}}}|[[user talk:{{{1}}}|my talk page]]|my Talk page}}, or type '''<nowiki> {{helpme}} </nowiki>''' on this talk page and a user will help you as soon as possible. I will answer your questions as far as I can. Again, welcome, and I hope you enjoy editing here and being a [[Wikipedia:Wikipedians|Wikipedian]].<!-- Template:welcome-anon -->/[[User:Wangi|wangi]] 18:14, 24 June 2007 (UTC)

==RE:User talk:tjstrf==
Rant on your own time. Thanks. --[[User:tjstrf|tjstrf]] <small>[[User talk:tjstrf|talk]]</small> 17:21, 14 September 2007 (UTC)
:You can gloat on your own time as well. --[[User:tjstrf|tjstrf]] <small>[[User talk:tjstrf|talk]]</small> 18:04, 14 September 2007 (UTC)
::Nah, I'm fine with being wrong. With the number of edits I make, it's inevitable, and I'm more than willing to defer to others who I know have a background of knowledge in a subject. The Bleach pages have long histories of people going and adding their own incoherent incorrect "translations" for the terms though, so when we find such edits, we generally revert them on sight. If it turns out they are correct, we can afford to wait for evidence.
::However, I'm not fine with having my talk page covered in your infantile "neener neener neener"ing. So, if you don't have anything productive to say, our conversation ends here. Happy editing. --[[User:tjstrf|tjstrf]] <small>[[User talk:tjstrf|talk]]</small> 18:26, 14 September 2007 (UTC)
==Your recent edits==
Hi, there. In case you didn't know, when you add content to [[Wikipedia:Talk page|talk pages]] and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should [[Wikipedia:Signatures|sign your posts]] by typing four [[tilde]]s ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. On many keyboards, the tilde is entered by holding the [[Shift key]], and pressing the key with the tilde pictured. You may also click on the signature button [[Image:Wikisigbutton.png]] located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your name and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you!<!-- Template:Tilde --> --[[User:SineBot|SineBot]] 18:11, 14 September 2007 (UTC)

Apology
I've been patrolling the recent changes for too long and have an itchy trigger finger. Please accept my apologies, although it is preferable to archive comments instead of deleting them.--Diniz (talk) 17:15, 26 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
We do not tolerate personal attacks
Welcome to Wikipedia. We invite everyone to contribute constructively to our encyclopedia. Take a look at the welcome page if you would like to learn more about contributing. However, unconstructive edits are considered vandalism and are immediately reverted. If you continue in this manner you may be blocked from editing without further warning. Please stop, and consider improving rather than damaging the work of others. Thank you. /wangi18:14, 24 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
