Hi, Jane Q. Public, Welcome to Wikipedia!

I hope you like this place — I sure do — and want to stay.

You may want to read about the Five pillars of Wikipedia and simplified ruleset.

If you need help on how to title new articles check out the naming conventions.

For help on formatting the pages visit the manual of style.

If you need help look at Wikipedia:Help and the FAQ.

If you can't find your answer there, check the Village Pump (for Wikipedia related questions) or the Reference Desk (for general questions)!

There's still more help at the Tutorial and Policy Library.

Plus, don't forget to visit the Community Portal.

Feel free to post questions on my user talk page or place {{helpme}} on your talk page and someone will be by to help you shortly.

If you want to play around with your new Wiki skills the Sandbox is for you. You can sign your name using three tildes (~). If you use four, you can add a datestamp too. Five will get you the datestamp only.

You may want to add yourself to the new user log.

If you ever think a page or image should be deleted, please list it at the votes for deletion page. There is also a votes for undeletion page if you want to retrieve something that you think should not have been deleted.

On IRC, check out the Bootcamp. It's not what it sounds like, but it is fun and can help you with your editing skills.

If you're bored and want to find something to do, try the Random page button in the sidebar, or check out the Open Task message in the Community Portal.

Happy Wiki-ing.Kf4bdy talk contribs

PS: This is not a bot and you did nothing to prompt this message. This is just a friendly welcome by a fellow Wikipedian.

[edit]

Oh, you're talking about the Heroes page, huh? I removed it because we are trying to keep that section down to the main occurances that affect the plot and nothing else. Look, please see the talk page for more infomation.

Oh, and i just noticed your addition of "the fuse". I've never seen nor heard of this. It sounds an awful lot like original research to me.dposse 20:55, 9 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

This is a very old entry. But one thing I will say is that Wikipedia's insistence (or, rather, the rather forceful insistence by certain users when it suits them) upon citations and references for ANYTHING, is likely to be the downfall of Wikipedia as a reliable reference, even though it has done rather well up until the last couple of years. Some of these people, with too much time on their hands, have a tendency to jump on anything with which they disagree and insist on citations from "reputable sources", even though they have no such sources for their own assertions.
It is quite possible to cite references that are acceptable by the Wikipedia community which are basically meaningless and have no real authority, while at the same time it is becoming rather well-known that Wikipedia (as a community) has been rejecting knowledge from respected experts who are so unfortunate as to not have citations at hand.
This is an unconscionable situation and untenable position for an "authoritative" work to be in. Best of luck, Wikipedia, but you have been going downhill, taken over by squatters. -- Jane Q. Public (talk)

[edit]

Welcome to Wikipedia. The recent edit you made to Talk:Kel-Tec P-3AT has been reverted, as it appears to be unconstructive. Use the sandbox for testing; if you believe the edit was constructive, ensure that you provide an informative edit summary. You may also wish to read the introduction to editing. Thank you. \ / () 08:06, 2 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
