Hello, and thanks for joining wiki. I found the article by way of a "random page" search, and it was in a really bad condition stylistically speaking. My agenda is/was to make it read better and to make sure that I had some external source for the information (the source is provided at the bottom of the current page). I'm sorry I added in some errors; please go ahead and fix them. Thanks again for your contribution. :) Sophy's Duckling 05:53, 19 June 2006 (UTC)
Article creator
[edit]In answer to your question, "How do I learn who posted the original contribution for an article?"
a) At the top of the article, click on the 'History' tab
b) Look for the part saying (latest | earliest) View (newer 50 | older 50), and click 'earliest'
c) The last entry, at the bottom of the list, will show who created it, and when. Clicking on the date/time will show the first version
For example; for the article Sausage
The last entry on that list shows that that article was created at 18:10, 30 August 2002 by Ortolan88 (talk · contribs)
And if you click the "18:10, 30 August 2002" part, you'd see this - the first version of that page.
Hope that helps, Chzz ► 05:52, 17 November 2011 (UTC)
