- Welcome!
Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. The following links will help you begin editing on Wikipedia:
- The five pillars of Wikipedia
- How to edit a page
- Editing tutorial
- Picture tutorial
- How to write a great article
- Naming conventions
- Manual of Style
- Please bear these points in mind while editing Wikipedia
- Respect copyrights – do not copy and paste text or images directly from other websites.
- Maintain a neutral point of view – this is one of Wikipedia's core policies.
- Take particular care while adding biographical material about a living person to any Wikipedia page and follow Wikipedia's Biography of Living Persons policy. Particularly, controversial and negative statements should be referenced with multiple reliable sources.
- No edit warring or sock puppetry.
- If you are testing, please use the Sandbox to do so.
- Do not add troublesome content to any article, such as: copyrighted text, libel, advertising or promotional messages, and text that is not related to an article's subject. Deliberately adding such content or otherwise editing articles maliciously is considered vandalism; doing so will result in your account or IP being blocked from editing.
- Do not use talk pages as discussion or forum pages as Wikipedia is not a forum.
The Wikipedia tutorial is a good place to start learning about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and discussion pages using four tildes, like this: ~~~~ (the software will replace them with your signature and the date). Again, welcome!

[edit]Hi Spoutgale! Thanks for contributing to Wikipedia. |
Disambiguation link notification for September 16
[edit]Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited List of New York Institute of Technology faculty and staff, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Robert McDermott and Robert Thornton (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.
It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 11:29, 16 September 2013 (UTC)
Kiss
[edit]Hi, I was just looking back through your edits and I noticed your changes to the kiss article. It seems that you removed some well sourced information (the bbc, no less) on the basis of personal experience. While I appreciate that you have experience of indian culture, please do *not* remove well sourced information on just because you think it is incorrect. If you can find a source that says it is incorrect, by all means add it, but removing information like that is tantamount to vandalism, which could lead to an account block.

- Yep, pretty much what I told Spoutgale, Benboy00, when WP:Edit warring with him or her.[1][2][3][4][5][6] But as you can see, I went ahead and let him or her have their way.[7] Flyer22 (talk) 00:34, 3 October 2013 (UTC)

Hello, Spoutgale. I wanted to let you know that I’m proposing an article that you started, List of New York Institute of Technology faculty and staff, for deletion because I don't think it meets our criteria for inclusion. If you don't want the article deleted:
- edit the page
- remove the text that looks like this:
{{proposed deletion/dated...}}
- save the page
Also, be sure to explain why you think the article should be kept in your edit summary or on the article's talk page. If you don't do so, it may be deleted later anyway.
You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Fauzan✆ talk ✉ email 14:19, 12 October 2013 (UTC)
