User talk:Vermilion River
Welcome!
Hello, Vermilion River, 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:

- Tutorial
- How to write a great article
- Manual of Style
I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name and the date. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or place {{helpme}} on your talk page and ask your question there. Again, welcome! Lradrama 08:31, 22 June 2007 (UTC)
Firstly, I would like to praise you for three things.
- You're the first person to have said thank you for the initial welcome message, and in turn, I'll thank you for that. :-)
- And I would like to thank you for saying nice things about me and my userpage, and it's nice to know something about you.
- And I would like to praise your edits you've made to this encyclopedia. I've noticed spelling corrections and hyperlink work, all of which is much valued and very useful.
Once again, welcome to Wikipedia, and I hope you'll stay because I can see now, very clearly, that you'll be a very good Wikipedian. You do meet some nutters along the way, even experienced Wikipedians can get up your nose (I hate it when people don't say thank you for barnstars I've awarded them), but don't let it bother you - it's not real life after all!
I hope to see you lots, and you can ask me any questions you have. However, I myself have only been on Wikipedia since January, and am still having to ask lots and lots of questions to other experienced users, who are happy to help. I recommend the help-desk or using that help-me function described obove if I can't help, and if that is the case, I would be very, very sorry.
Happy editing! ;-) Lradrama 09:29, 22 June 2007 (UTC)
Article deletion
[edit]No worries! We all make mistakes! As it happens, I don't know how to go about article deletion, but you can ask at the help desk or use the helpme function (see welcome message). Lradrama 12:11, 22 June 2007 (UTC)
