Welcome to Wikipedia!

W e l c o m e Cookies to welcome you! Hello, Ksu6500! Thank you for your contributions. My name's Airplaneman and I just wanted to say hi and Welcome to Wikipedia! You may benefit from following some of the links below, which will help you get the most out of the world's largest encyclopædia. If you have any questions, feel free to ask me on my talk page, or place {{helpme}} on your talk page and ask your question there. I love to help new users, so don't be afraid to leave a message! Please remember to sign your name on talk pages by clicking or by typing four tildes "~~~~"; this will automatically produce your name, the date and the time. You'll soon learn to appreciate people using helpful edit summaries, so please contribute by filling in that box (just above Save Page) every time you edit. If you are already loving Wikipedia, you might want to consider being "adopted" by a more experienced editor or joining a WikiProject to collaborate with others in creating and improving articles of your interest. (There's a comprehensive Directory of WikiProjects, and you'll find many article talk pages have banners from a relevant project.) Again, welcome, and happy editing!

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, there is a Manual of Style that should be followed to maintain a consistent, encyclopedic appearance. Using different styles throughout the encyclopedia, as you did in Linda Cardellini, makes it harder to read. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. Elizium23 (talk) 19:24, 6 August 2011 (UTC)

Dates for index changes

Hey KSU, saw you reverted my change. I match the press release source; to roll forward to the first day of trading is original research in those situations when the announcement says the change is effective after a certain day's close of trading. UnitedStatesian (talk) 21:40, 15 July 2017 (UTC)

@UnitedStatesian:Hey UnitedStatesian, I have always done my edits as the Date First Added in the recent changes section. So in this case the changes were after the close of trading on Friday, December 20. Then the first day of trading as a part of the index would be on Monday, December 23. That matches each component entry above for Facebook, Alliance Data and Mohawk. IMO the dates should match.Ksu6500 (talk) 01:41, 16 July 2017 (UTC)

A Barnstar for you!

Considerations in Reverting

Hello Ksu6500. I usually try to understand an edit before reverting it. If I think an edit is defective, I usually try to see what can be preserved and do so rather than revert. Otherwise, I prefer to discuss an edit with an editor specially when the edit is a curious one or seems to be a mistake. I think knee jerk reversions are presumptive, dogmatic, and discourteous. But this is just me. My edit 1125259234 to James Woodson’s Spouses in the infobox was an attempt to correct spacing in the Mobile view not realizing the wikiprogram would screw it up in the Desktop view. Unlike you, I’ve worked around the original edit so spacing is correct in both views. Regards, Quaerens-veritatem (talk) 05:56, 3 December 2022 (UTC)
