Welcome!

Hello, PANDA(PersonAmendingNumerousDefectiveApostrophes), and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are a few good links for newcomers:

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name and the date.

Just in case, I thought you might find this information useful: Wikipedia:Changing username - if you become a long term contributor to Wikipedia, it might be easier to use a shorter name rather than a longer one. I don't think the name User:PANDA is taken up yet. Anyway, I'll see you around :-) --HappyCamper 13:49, 26 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Nice name

[edit]

Hey, nice name. And good work on those apostrophes. I have to admit, even though I know when to use them and when not to, I screw it up myself far too often with "its". -R. fiend 16:46, 26 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hey

[edit]

Just a little suggestion here, when changing "its" to "it's", it is preferable to use the non-contracted form "it is" in Wikipedia. Oh, and good to see somebody is addressing the faulty apostrophes. Squalla 22:15, 8 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Notification: changes to "Mark my edits as minor by default" preference

[edit]

Hello there. This is an automated message to tell you about the gradual phasing out of the preference entitled "Mark all edits minor by default", which you currently have (or very recently had) enabled.

On 13 March 2011, this preference was hidden from the user preferences screen as part of efforts to prevent its accidental misuse (consensus discussion). This had the effect of locking users in to their existing preference, which, in your case, was true. To complete the process, your preference will automatically be changed to false in the next few days. This does not require any intervention on your part and you will still be able to manually mark your edits as being 'minor'. The only thing that's changed is that you will no longer have them marked as minor by default.

For established users such as yourself there is a workaround available involving custom JavaScript. If you are familiar with the contents of WP:MINOR, and believe that it is still beneficial to the encyclopedia to have all your edits marked as such by default, then this discussion will give you the details you need to continue with this functionality indefinitely. If you have any problems, feel free to drop me a note.

Thank you for your understanding and happy editing :) Editing on behalf of User:Jarry1250, LivingBot (talk) 21:58, 14 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
