User talk:Game-Guru999

Welcome!

Hello, Game-Guru999, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are some pages that you might find helpful:

• The five pillars of Wikipedia
• Tutorial
• How to edit a page and How to develop articles
• How to create your first article (using the Article Wizard if you wish)
• Manual of Style

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your messages on discussion pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically insert your username and the date. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or ask your question on this page and then place {{help me}} before the question. Again, welcome!

One thing: Please don't add the category tag Category:Dead people to articles, as it is only a container for more specific sub-categories. If the year of death is known, it is sufficient to add the appropriate category tag for deaths in that year (e.g. Category:1960 deaths). If the year of death is not known, use Category:Year of death missing. —Paul A (talk) 08:55, 11 August 2011 (UTC)

Thank you for the welcome! So far I've enjoyed contributing to Wikipedia, and I'll very likely stay here for a good while. Also, my mistake has been noted and will not happen in the future. Thanks again! Game-Guru999 (talk) 14:18, 12 August 2011 (UTC)

Interview

Hi, I am a Wikipedian and researcher from Carnegie Mellon University, working with Professors Robert E. Kraut and Aniket Kittur. We’ve published many scholarly papers on Wikipedia and are partnering with the Wikimedia Foundation on several new projects.

I have been analyzing collaboration in Wikipedia, especially Collaborations of the Week/Month. My analysis of seven years of archival Wikipedia data shows that Collaborations of the Week/Month substantially increase the amount and nature of project members’ contributions, with long lasting effects. We would like to talk to Wikipedians to better understand the processes that that produce this behavior change.

We’ve identified you as a particularly good candidate to speak with because of your involvement with the WikiProject Video games' Collaborations, which is one of those we’ve been investigating. It would really help us if you would be willing to have a short talk with us, less than 30 minutes of your time. We can talk via skype or instant messenger or other means if you’d prefer. Do you have time at any point during this week to chat? If so, please leave a message on my talk page.

Thanks! (This my personal website)Haiyizhu (talk) 04:47, 8 November 2011 (UTC)

Hi Game Guru, I am so glad that you are willing to do an interview. How about chatting on Friday from 4pm to 4:30pm (UCT+1)? I have added you on Skype. My skype name is dracosyiyi. Haiyizhu (talk) 04:19, 10 November 2011 (UTC)

Sounds good, talk to you then. Game-Guru999 (talk) 14:01, 10 November 2011 (UTC)

ArbCom elections are now open!

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. For the Election committee, MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 16:49, 24 November 2015 (UTC)
