Welcome to Wikipedia, DA19! I am Ziphon and have been editing Wikipedia for quite some time. I just wanted to say hi and welcome you to Wikipedia! If you have any questions, feel free to leave me a message on my talk page or by typing {{helpme}} at the bottom of this page. I love to help new users, so don't be afraid to leave a message! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are some pages that you might find helpful:
- Introduction
- The five pillars of Wikipedia
- How to edit a page
- Help pages
- How to write a great article
- Manual of Style
I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Oh yeah, I almost forgot, when you post on talk pages you should sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); that should automatically produce your username and the date after your post. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or place {{helpme}} on your talk page and ask your question there. Again, welcome! Ziphon (ALLears) 02:49, 6 June 2008 (UTC)
Jon (?) Okada
[edit]I have a copy of his book "No-No Boy", and the author's name is given as "John" Okada (see also [1]). There are plenty of other sources that give his name as "John" such as [2] and none that I can find that list him as Jon. What is the source for your rename? — Myasuda (talk) 04:25, 6 July 2008 (UTC)
Speedy deletion of "Japanese American civil rights activists"
[edit]![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/f/f7/Nuvola_apps_important.svg/48px-Nuvola_apps_important.svg.png)
A page you created, Japanese American civil rights activists, has been tagged for deletion, as it meets one or more of the criteria for speedy deletion; specifically, it has no content, other than external links, categories, "see also" sections, rephrasing of the title, and/or chat-like comments.
You are welcome to contribute content which complies with our content policies and any applicable inclusion guidelines. However, please do not simply re-create the page with the same content. You may also wish to read our introduction to editing and guide to writing your first article.
Thanks. Germ (talk) 01:43, 9 July 2008 (UTC)
Yonsei
[edit]When I first encountered your work on Yonsei, the article was simply named Yonsei ... and I believed that this name remains the best option.
I disagree with Caspian blue's unreasonable decision in arbitrarily re-naming the article as Yonsei (Japanese term).
I also disagree with your reasonable attempt to address the problems which Caspian blue's gambit suggests. In other words, I'm not persuaded that your re-naming the article as Yonsei (fourth-generation Nikkei) is the way to go.
I believe that simplest is best -- that plain Yonsei is the name this article should have.
Your contributions to this article make clear that you have opinions; and I do encourage your further contributions. Please give some thought to the following:
- Talk:Yonsei (fourth-generation Nikkei)#Restoring initial article name
- Talk:Yonsei (fourth-generation Nikkei)#Research
In a way, I guess what I prefer is to return to what I understood as "your" title when I first began editing on November 6th -- see here. --Tenmei (talk) 09:07, 10 November 2008 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:Album We've Only Just Begun inside gatefold.jpg
[edit]![⚠](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/34/Ambox_warning_blue.svg/35px-Ambox_warning_blue.svg.png)
Thanks for uploading File:Album We've Only Just Begun inside gatefold.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Skier Dude (talk) 03:00, 6 September 2011 (UTC)

A page you previously contributed to, Joe Williams (jazz singer), had many prior revisions deleted due to copyright issues. For details please see Talk:Joe Williams (jazz singer). Your prior version may be temporarily restored upon request if you need it for reference to re-incorporate constructive edits that do not make use of the copyright infringing material. Please feel free to leave me a talk message if you need this done. Happy editing, — xaosflux Talk 22:29, 29 December 2014 (UTC)
