You should introduce yourself here at the new user log. I hope you enjoy editing and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name, the date, and the time.
For your first edits, I suggest searching for articles that you think might interest you. You could also be audacious and try a random page.

[edit]The two Independents (Lieberman and Sanders) give the Democrats a majority because they caucus with the Democrats and the statement "clear alignments to the Democratic party" does not make that clear. I am also not sure if we should distingish the higher gain in the House as an "outright majority" and oppose the the Senate gains. But yeah, if you want just revert it back to the contributions you added but change that "clear alignments to the Democratic Party" statement to "caucus with the Democrats". P.S. Ignore my previous statement, I know it made no sense what so ever....I wasn't thinking at the moment.--Jersey Devil 00:37, 25 November 2006 (UTC)
- I did a self-revert on the article and just changed the aforementioned sentence.--Jersey Devil 00:55, 25 November 2006 (UTC)
- Well, as Rjensen said when you talked to him on his talk page, the Democrats will control the committees in the Senate as Lieberman and Sanders have already announced that they will caucus with the Democrats.--Jersey Devil 02:16, 25 November 2006 (UTC)
Sam Monroe
[edit]This page consists of one paragraph, stating that the character is from "Life as a House" and who the character was played by. Why does there need to be a page for one paragraph, wouldn't it be better served by being merged with the film's page? Ckessler 18:06, 12 December 2006 (UTC)
Opportunity Rover
[edit]More of the technical details of the rover (and her twin Spiriit) are located at Mars Exploration Rover. Eluchil404 16:00, 14 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit]There is disagreement about the naming of the T-101. Read the Terminator (character) article. ColdFusion650 19:09, 16 July 2007 (UTC)
- I'm trying to tactful. The changes you made are simply making it longer for the sake of longer. One of the Wikipedia editing guidelines is to concise, to the point, not being overly wordy. I hope you understand. ColdFusion650 19:24, 16 July 2007 (UTC)
- I feel protective of all the articles I own. My user page makes it explicit that editing articles without permission will result in exile to Tomi on the Black Sea where they wear no togas and speak no Latin. (small joke) ColdFusion650 19:49, 16 July 2007 (UTC)
- I'm not going to allow a detrimental change just that someone will like me. I know this is what you are requesting, and telling me to get a life will not help. ColdFusion650 19:21, 18 July 2007 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of George Monroe (movie character)
[edit]A proposed deletion template has been added to the article George Monroe (movie character), suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}}
notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

The article Michelle Johnston has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
Unsourced BLP, nothing available online at all other than IMDB which does not indicate notability
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}}
notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}}
will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Cardiffbear88 (talk) 22:27, 3 March 2020 (UTC)
