Welcome!

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions, such as the ones you made to Talk:Catholic Church sexual abuse cases. I hope you like the place and decide to stay.

Here are some links to pages you may find useful:

You don't have to log in to read or edit articles on Wikipedia, but if you wish to acquire additional privileges, you can simply create a named account. It's free, requires no personal information, and lets you:

Create new pages and rename pages
Edit semi-protected pages
Upload images
Have your own watchlist, which shows when articles you are interested in have changed

Note that in order for the first three features to be available, you must have had an account for a certain number of days and made a certain number of edits.

If you edit without using a named account, your IP address (5.43.99.155) is used to identify you instead.

I hope that you, as a Wikipedian, decide to continue contributing to our project: an encyclopedia of human knowledge that anyone can edit. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, or you can click here to ask for help on your talk page, and a volunteer should respond shortly. We also have an intuitive guide on editing if you're interested. By the way, please make sure to sign and date your talk page comments with four tildes (~~~~).

Nice to meet you

Re Handke: when I see an IP user I treat them like newbies, - sorry about that. Couldn't you sign in with a name I could remember? - Wikipedia uses given names rarely, as you may know. After a person was introduced with a link and full name, only the surname is used. I hate edit wars, so won't revert you, but you could apply that part of the Manual of style yourself. In this case, he was linked even twice.

One thing I don't like - so you could please avoid it next time you see my name - is "I know where you are coming from". I doubt it. I explained on the article talk where I was coming from. In case that was unclear: project Germany, seeing that a German gets an international prize, watching a discussion that his article is too bad to mention that on the Main page. I spent a half a day of my life to change that bad quality, knowing almost nothing about the person and his work, but knowing that an article about a great literary figure should contain something about literature, not more than 50% about political controversy. I believe it's really enough to mention the same conflicts twice, but see above, I hate edit warring. Happy editing. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 19:27, 12 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Names are not important, only whats, hows and whys (three physicist's questions too).

OK, I added just name and left it without a link. Again, names and persons are irrelevant (so I don't care anything regarding yous, whos, whoms, where-ones, etc.). Thank you for a such amazing and neutral article but what has to be mentioned it has. I hate censorship and like seas of information; however, I respect rules and guidelines and if users conclude on talk page some info I or anyone (I like words like any, anyone, anybody, everyone, one, also 'we' could pass; and "hate" words you, I; at least regarding WP) added is irrelevant or should not be in article generally, it will be removed sooner or later by any editor who cares even a little about the content. Feel free to edit always, as everyone always should; remove double statements and point where they are else in the same or significantly similar form. Do not remove relevant reliable references unless same URL/work or/and overreferencing (ref bombs, there is a WP "official" guideline on this too). --5.43.99.155 (talk) 20:48, 12 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Agree. I "edit always", and boldly, but I never revert the same thing twice, - then wait for others to agree with me or not. Thank you for removing the "mass-killing" thing. I would have liked to send an easy thank-you-click, but that's not possible for an IP. You are invited to use a name, which could be this IP number ;) --Gerda Arendt (talk) 11:47, 13 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

This is the discussion page for an IP user, identified by the user's IP address. Many IP addresses change periodically, and are often shared by several users. If you are an IP user, you may create an account or log in to avoid future confusion with other IP users. Registering also hides your IP address.
