User talk:TJ13090

Welcome!

Hello, sorry to edit right here but I havn't yet figured out how to talk with others, thanks for the cookies.

Some cookies to welcome you!

Welcome to Wikipedia, TJ13090! I am T3chl0v3r 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!

Your recent edits

Hi there. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. If you can't type the tilde character, you should click on the signature button located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your name and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you! --SineBot (talk) 20:55, 3 May 2009 (UTC)

Help?

Sometimes it helps to add {{reflist}} at the bottom of the article to cite your sources. Hopefully this helps. --The Legendary Sky Attacker 08:03, 15 May 2009 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Battle of Brazos Santiago

A tag has been placed on Battle of Brazos Santiago requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

Please do not use the talk page as a forum for opinion, and please do not edit-war to keep it there. I agree with your removal of the Northwoods bit as irrelevant, by the way. Also, I can help you with those cites on the Battle of Brazos Santiago. Acroterion _(talk) 21:27, 16 May 2009 (UTC)

I've named the Handbook of Texas ref so you don't have to put it in multiple times, and added {{reflist}} so it automatically lists them. Acroterion _(talk) 21:32, 16 May 2009 (UTC)

Hello, TJ13090. You have new messages at Acroterion's talk page.

Edit summary

Hi, could you please get into the habbit of using edit summaries, they're pretty useful to other editors. It's quite a chore at first but it becomes second nature eventually. Equendil Talk 00:29, 18 May 2009 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. The recent edit you made to War of 1812 has been reverted, as it appears to have removed content from the page without explanation. Use the sandbox for testing; if you believe the edit was constructive, please ensure that you provide an informative edit summary. You may also wish to read the introduction to editing. Thank you. Alansohn (talk) 03:25, 18 May 2009 (UTC)

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did with this edit to the page Talk:War of 1812/Who Won?. Such edits constitute vandalism and are reverted. Please do not continue to make unconstructive edits to pages; use the sandbox for testing. Thank you.   — Jeff G. (talk|contribs) 03:42, 18 May 2009 (UTC)

Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you recently tried to give Fourth Battle of San Juan (1898) a different title by copying its content and pasting it into another page with a different name. This is known as a "cut and paste move", and it is undesirable because it splits the page history which is needed for attribution and various other purposes. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be moved to a new title together with their edit history.

In most cases, once your account is four days old and has ten edits, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page. This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a redirect from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at requested moves to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other articles that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Wikipedia:Cut and paste move repair holding pen. Thank you. - TexasAndroid (talk) 13:30, 18 May 2009 (UTC)

Please read the sections just above. You cannot do cut&paste moves. And you cannot cut&paste the contents to two different places. If the article is at the wrong name, you must get a proper move done. Anything less is a gross violation of the GFDL, leaving the history for who wrote what at the previous location. Cut&paste moves are simply not allowed. I have no position on what is the proper name. But continuing to revert to your cut&paste move, and to the blanking of the one page, is disruptive and needs to stop. Do it right, or do not do it at all. - TexasAndroid (talk) 02:09, 19 May 2009 (UTC)

Please do not vandalize pages, as you did with this edit to Second Battle of San Juan (1898). If you continue to do so, you will be blocked from editing. Landon1980 (talk) 04:26, 19 May 2009 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Battle of Guanica

A tag has been placed on Battle of Guanica requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an article with no content whatsoever, or whose contents consist only of external links, "See also" section, book reference, category tag, template tag, interwiki link, rephrasing of the title, or an attempt to contact the subject of the article. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

This is your last warning. You will be blocked from editing the next time you vandalize a page, as you did with this edit to Battle of Guanica. Landon1980 (talk) 05:38, 19 May 2009 (UTC)
