Welcome

Although some prefer welcoming newcomers with cookies, I find fruit to be a healthier alternative.

Hello, Metaleonid, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like this place and decide to stay. Here are some tips to get you started:

• Please respect your fellow Wikipedians, remain neutral, cite your sources, and if a rule prevents you from improving or maintaining Wikipedia, ignore it.

• Edit a page by clicking 'Edit this page' or 'Edit' on the top of the page.
• Use the Wikipedia sandbox or create your own personal sandbox to experiment.
• Sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~). This will automatically produce your username and the date.
• Cite your sources using <ref></ref> tags. For example, type <ref>Example reference. http://www.example.com. Accessed January 1, 1900.</ref> to produce this tag:

• To create an article, use the article wizard.
• Consider joining a WikiProject.
• Use two apostrophes for italic text (''italic text''), three apostrophes for bold text ('''bold text'''), five apostrophes for bold and italic text ('''''Bold and italic text'''''), two brackets for an internal link ([[page name]]), two brackets and a pipe (|) for an internal link with different text to be displayed ([[page name|text to be displayed]]), the link, including the http:// prefix, for external links (http://www.example.com), one bracket and a space for an external link with different text to be displayed ([http://www.example.com Text to be displayed]), and two curly brackets for {{templates}}. See this page for more formatting marks.

RE: Dead Horse myspace

Yeah, I did see that on the article. Most fansites should not be put in external links sections, except for ones with recognized authourity. This is established by rule 11 of the links normally to be avoided section on the external links wikipedia guidelines page. Thank you for your interest in the band and article.

PS: When you're leaving comments on talk pages, it is wikipedia custom to leave the four-tilde signature after the body of text. Also, if you are starting a discussion, it is preferred that you stamp a subject or headline on the topic. This can be achieved, for instance, by pressing the "new section" tab on the top right of the talk page. Thanks. Backtable _{Speak to me}^{concerning my deeds.} 02:57, 27 October 2010 (UTC)
