Welcome!
[edit]Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions so far. I hope you like the place and decide to stay.
Here are some links to pages you may find useful:
- Contributing to Wikipedia
- Tutorial
- How to edit a page and How to develop articles
- Simplified Manual of Style
You don't have to log in to read or edit articles on Wikipedia, but if you wish to acquire additional privileges, you can simply create a named account. It's free, requires no personal information, and lets you:
- Create new pages and rename pages
- Edit semi-protected pages
- Upload images
- Have your own watchlist, which shows when articles you are interested in have changed
If you edit without using a named account, your IP address (76.231.73.99) is used to identify you instead.
I hope that you, as a Wikipedian, decide to continue contributing to our project: an encyclopedia of human knowledge that anyone can edit. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, or you can to ask for help on your talk page, and a volunteer should respond shortly. We also have an intuitive guide on editing if you're interested. By the way, please make sure to sign and date your talk page comments with four tildes (~~~~).

[edit]Hello, I'm Donner60. I wanted to let you know that I reverted one of your recent contributions —specifically this edit to Crossbones (comics)— because it did not appear constructive. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you have any questions, you can ask for assistance at the Help Desk. Thanks. Donner60 (talk) 03:49, 28 May 2018 (UTC)
- If this is a shared IP address, and you did not make the edits, consider creating an account for yourself or logging in with an existing account so you can avoid further irrelevant notices.
- That was an unsourced addition, so removing it was a perfectly legitimate action. 76.231.73.99 (talk) 14:16, 28 May 2018 (UTC)
I was thinking of that but I did go with the letter list article instead. I might change my mind sometime and might try to improve the Golden Age characer of that list article though. We’ll see. Jhenderson 777 22:20, 22 November 2018 (UTC)
Page numbers
[edit]I refer to your edit here at the article Lemmings (video game): [1]. Thank you for adding this information, it is very helpful and improves the article. In the future though, please only include the specific pages that back up the statement. You've attributed the statement to the pages: 86, 87, 89, 90, 92, 98, 101, 102, 109, 110, 113, 114, 117, 118, 125, 126, 129 and 130. I've since looked up the issue and found that Lemming's was only mentioned on page 113; that's all we needed to know, so I've shortened it to that number. We don't need to know the page numbers of the rest of the article about the greatest games. Please only add the page numbers that explicitly verify information in the future. Have a nice day.

- I was copying it from the way User:JimmyBlackwing was adding it. I'm done now anyway, so it you want to remove the page numbers that is up to you. 76.231.73.99 (talk) 03:59, 30 December 2018 (UTC)
- It's largely a matter of personal taste whether you include every page number of an article or only the specific page from which the information derives. Normally citing a whole article doesn't create this many page number citations (this particular article has a lot of ad breaks). For mass-adding awards, it's faster and more efficient to cite the whole article instead of stopping to correct each citation with an individual page, so that's what I do. If Damien prefers the single-page format on Lemmings, that's fine, too. JimmyBlackwing (talk) 04:41, 30 December 2018 (UTC)

[edit]Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Talk:Luke Carlyle. Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been or will be reverted.
- If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, please discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page, and seek consensus with them. Alternatively, you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant notice boards.
- If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, please seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.
Please ensure you are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, and please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive. Continual disruptive editing may result in loss of editing privileges. Thank you. GenQuest "Talk to Me" 12:25, 17 March 2019 (UTC)

- GenQuest, nothing about an AFD result either requires you to remove WikiProject banners, or redirect the talk page, unless I missed a policy somewhere stating that you have to do that. Your warnings are ridiculous, unless you can point me to a policy-based reason for doing what you have been doing. I have seen many, many, talk pages of redirected articles (or redirects that have never been articles) which have talk page content. 2600:1700:E820:1BA0:D4F2:9CFA:E72E:D36A (talk) 12:38, 17 March 2019 (UTC)

[edit]Hello, I'm ToBeFree. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Elemental (Dungeons & Dragons), but you didn't provide a source. I’ve removed it for now, but if you’d like to include a citation to a reliable source and re-add it, please do so! If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 22:39, 4 July 2019 (UTC)
