User talk:Whir

Hello Whir, welcome to Wikipedia. Here's some tips:

If you made any edits before you got an account, you might be interested in assigning those to your username.
You can sign your name using three tildes, like ~~~. If you use four, you can add a datestamp too.
If you ever think a page or image should be deleted, please list it at the votes for deletion page. There is also a votes for undeletion page if you want to retrieve something that you think should not have been deleted.
If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page.

Other useful pages are: how to edit, how to write a great article, naming conventions, manual of style and the Wikipedia policies.

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Angela . 22:34, Jan 27, 2004 (UTC)

Hi Whir. Thank you for uploading the images of Low playing at the Electric Fetus. I think you've already clarified this, but it would be appreciated if you could chime in on this page. We want to be sure that the photographs were taken by you and that they were not scanned from someone else's film. Also if you happen to know when the photographs were taken, that would be quite useful. Cheers, Gobōnobō ⁺ ^c 05:09, 15 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Wow. This is a great photo. Thanks for sharing it. Do you have more media that you'd like to donate? ―Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 07:55, 26 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of Thousand, million, billion

Hello Whir,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Thousand, million, billion for deletion, because it appears to duplicate an existing Wikipedia article, [[1000_(number),Million,Billion,Metric_prefix]].

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. dstone66^(talk) 05:24, 18 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
