User talk:Leenewt

Greetings!
My name is Ryan, and it's my pleasure to welcome you, Leenewt, to Wikipedia! First of all, I'd like to thank you for joining the project, and contributing to articles and discussion. I hope you can continue to take part in Wikipedia, because we need more valuable editors like yourself.

If you are new and need some assistance, here are some great links to check out:

• The five pillars of Wikipedia are the primary goals and most important rules that we follow.
• These help pages are important if you'd like to learn more about specific processes.
• The tutorial is a hands-on approach to learning all about editing.
  • For a "crash course" in editing, head on over to Redwolf24's Bootcamp!
• Writing a great article is a noble accomplishment. An article you start might end up on the Main Page!
• The Manual of style is an in-depth group of pages that will teach you how to make articles look their very best.

I hope you enjoy editing here, and being a Wikipedian! If you have any questions, find out where to ask a question or ask me on my talk page. Before I go, here's one more tip. When you post on talk pages, be sure to sign your name and the date by typing four tildes: ~~~~. That automatically generates your username and the date. Again, welcome, and happy editing!  --Merovingian (t)^N (c) 05:38, 14 November 2005 (UTC)

Oh, you're quite welcome, and I am always available if you have a question. --Merovingian (t)^N (c) 07:59, 14 November 2005 (UTC)

Edit summary

When editing an article on Wikipedia there is a small field labelled "Edit summary" under the main edit-box. It looks like this:

The text written here will appear on the Recent changes page, in the page revision history, on the diff page, and in the watchlists of users who are watching that article. See m:Help:Edit summary for full information on this feature.

When you leave the edit summary blank, some of your edits could be mistaken for vandalism and may be reverted, so please always briefly summarize your edits, especially when you are making subtle but important changes, like changing dates or numbers. Thank you. Oleg Alexandrov (talk) 03:48, 15 November 2005 (UTC)

Copyright problems

Hi there, good job on the article on Optical tweezers. However, most of the illustrations in there are copyrighted, and per the copyright policy one can't re-use content that is publisched elsewhere on the WWW. Please take time to read [[Wikipedia:Copyright as ost of the illustrations will have to be replaced. Pilatus 21:27, 2 February 2006 (UTC)

Copyright problems

Hi there thanks for the praise and copyright reminder, just hope that more people get a better feel of optical tweezers in general.

Due to such copyright issues (not to cause WIKI any problem), i have removed the figures from the articles. Feel free to edit :-)

Cheers
