  Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. While we appreciate that you enjoy using Wikipedia, please note that Wikipedia is an encyclopedia and not a social network. Wikipedia is not a place to socialize or do things that are not directly related to improving the encyclopedia. Off-topic material may be deleted at any time. We're sorry if this message has discouraged you from editing here, but the ultimate goal of this website is to build an encyclopedia (please see What Wikipedia is not for further details). Thank you. — Jeraphine Gryphon (talk) 11:47, 22 February 2016 (UTC)Reply

Unconstructive behavior

edit

I don't know what your deal is, but leaving people random, misplaced notes on their talk pages like "these are my pic" and thanking them for half a dozen seemingly-arbitrary edits is not what people do around here. Wikipedia is not the new MySpace, and you're not going to make any friends by what you're doing.

Also, please observe some talk page conventions: new subjects merit a new section, written like so:

== Some topic ==
This is a new topic. ~~~~

Replies are threaded: that is, when you're replying to a comment, indent it one level (and only one level) deeper than the comment to which you're replying. For example:

== Apples ==
Does anyone else like apples? Bob 22 February 2016 03:57 UTC
: I like apples! Alice 22 February 2016 04:12 UTC
:: Alice, you like all fruits. Carol 22 February 2016 04:17 UTC
::: Especially raspberries! Alice 22 February 2016 07:40 UTC
: I don't like apples or any fruits. Dave 22 February 2016 05:12 UTC

which shows up as:

Apples
