Hello Blogger82, welcome to Wikipedia!

To get you up and running very quickly, here are some links that will help you get started:

The help page, for which there is always a link in the navigation menu on the left-hand side of your screen, includes links to the above pages as well as to everything else you could possibly need to know about Wikipedia and how the Wikipedia community operates.

Be sure to drop us a note at Wikipedia:New user log so we can meet you and help you get started.

Here are some things that new users sometimes have trouble with, and you will soon find these tips useful:

When you write messages on talk pages, be sure to sign your name. You can do this using three tildes, like [[User:Go for it!|Go for it!]]. If you use four, a datestamp is automatically added. Five provides the datestamp only.
Remember to check your work using the Show preview button before you save. This helps prevent mistakes (and the edits used to correct them). Thank you.
Here is information about what you can do with your User page.

I hope you enjoy your experience at Wikipedia and decide to stay. Sincerely, --Go for it!

Two things:

Why don't you create a real user page? It's (sorta) fun. Also, you can request for semi-protection of your user page to prevent repeated vandalism, but the vandalism isn't that severe or that often, so it might be more worth it to simply revert.
Also, I accused IPs of impersonating you, not the other way around. These anonymous IPs signed as though they were you and were clearly from the University of Windsor, lending credence to the claim that they are simply Keith Marlowe (or a close friend) sponsoring vanity on Wikipedia.

I agree also. The User:Kmarlowe might be him (or a close friend). User:Kmarlowe uploaded a picture of Keith Marlowe on the article. Also some IP's contib's say Calgary Lougheed. FellowWikipedian 19:47, 9 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I don't go to the University of Windsor and I've never been there in my entire life. Again, I didn't know how to put my signature in, now I do. Hence the reason why my IP address was showing up. Considering that the University of Windsor IP addresses started off with 137 or whatever and mind did not (Check the records)---not sure how you could make that inference.

I know you don't. I am talking about other IP's. FellowWikipedian 19:54, 9 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

OK,sorry, I'm a bit edgy about all this stuff since ppl have gone out and vandalized by userpage. My bad.--Blogger82 19:56, 9 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I am all edgy about all this stuff too. I check the records almost all the time. FellowWikipedian 19:57, 9 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I'm mostly happy with the article now. Much of it has been cited thanks to you. Do you think there's anything else that can be done to make it better?--Blogger82 20:02, 9 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I just thought about it know. Mabie we can add a {{Canada-bio-stub}}? I hope that is okay. If I think about anything else to add I will tell you. Thanks. FellowWikipedian 20:29, 9 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I think its OK--but considering the edit war going on over there, maybe its best to wait a week or so and see if things die down? I don't know really though, you seem more experienced on these sorts of things, so I'll follow your lead on it.--Blogger82 20:34, 9 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

With the edit war going on we should wait a while. I will tell you what should be added. If you have any suggestions you can tell me at my talk page. It's best to be safe for a while so we know what is going on. Thanks again. FellowWikipedian 21:02, 9 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

re: your userpage

I am confused by the post you left on my Talk page. Until this edit, I have never touched your userpage. I have certainly not reversed any vandalism.

To answer your question, yes there are ways to protect your userpage but they do require admin intervention. Admins can protect the page from edits by non-admins. However, I see little evidence of vandalism on this page. That would seem excessive in this case. Rossami (talk) 13:26, 8 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
