Hi, {{subst:PAGENAME}},

You may not be aware that information you post on Wikipedia is instantly public and may be archived and indexed seconds later by independent search engines where it may remain out of your control, forever. All Wikipedians need to take care of personal information and think twice about posting private details about themselves or others.

If you ever need to delete one of your own user pages (removing its edit history from view) you can use the {{db-u1}} template.

If you are a young editor, you may want to take some time to check the Wikipedia:Guidance for younger editors page. General guidelines for userspace can be found on User pages. Feel free to drop a note on my talk page or use the template {{helpme}} if you have any questions or need other help. Thanks, ~~~~
