Hi, Snowfalcon cu, Welcome to Wikipedia!

I hope you like this place — I sure do — and want to stay.

You may want to read about the Five pillars of Wikipedia and simplified ruleset.

If you need help on how to title new articles check out the naming conventions.

For help on formatting the pages visit the manual of style.

If you need help look at Wikipedia:Help and the FAQ.

If you can't find your answer there, check the Village Pump (for Wikipedia related questions) or the Reference Desk (for general questions)!

There's still more help at the Tutorial and Policy Library.

Plus, don't forget to visit the Community Portal.

Feel free to post questions on my user talk page or place {{helpme}} on your talk page and someone will be by to help you shortly.

If you want to play around with your new Wiki skills the Sandbox is for you. You can sign your name using three tildes (~). If you use four, you can add a datestamp too. Five will get you the datestamp only.

You may want to add yourself to the new user log.

If you ever think a page or image should be deleted, please list it at the votes for deletion page. There is also a votes for undeletion page if you want to retrieve something that you think should not have been deleted.

On IRC, check out the Bootcamp. It's not what it sounds like, but it is fun and can help you with your editing skills.

If you're bored and want to find something to do, try the Random page button in the sidebar, or check out the Open Task message in the Community Portal.

Happy Wiki-ing.Kf4bdy talk contribs

March 2013 edit

  Thank you for your contributions. Please remember to mark your edits, such as your recent edits to The Asia Institute, as "minor" only if they truly are minor edits. In accordance with Help:Minor edit, a minor edit is one that the editor believes requires no review and could never be the subject of a dispute. Minor edits consist of things such as typographical corrections, formatting changes or rearrangement of text without modification of content. Additionally, the reversion of clear-cut vandalism and test edits may be labeled "minor". Thank you. This applies to two significant edits you made where you checked the minor edits check box inappropriately: [1] and [2] ConcernedVancouverite (talk) 16:18, 8 March 2013 (UTC)Reply

Hey man, I saw your comments on your attempts to edit The Asia Institute. If you want to work on making an article and then proposing it, you can use the Sandbox. There are some instructions about how you can use your sandbox here. It would be nice if the folks who were reverting your edits actually took the time to engage you in dialog, because it seems clear that you're just trying to make a better article, and that your mistakes were well-intentioned. Just referring folks to a couple of links about Wiki policy isn't quite as helpful as really trying to understand what someone's doing. I hope you haven't given up on Wiki! ☾ Luna (talk) 20:40, 8 May 2013 (UTC)Reply
  • Hi Luna. Thank you for the kind, meaningful note. No, I have not given up, ㅋㅋㅋㅋ^^~~. It is users like you that help me to keep the effort on the forefront of my mind. Seriously. Thank you for the info. I contacted The Asia Institute sometime back and they have not only been sympathetic, but also helpful in communicating content over to me. I am slowly putting something together about the place. When I do, I will run it to completion as you wrote, convey it to the other users, and be in touch with you.

Notification of automated file description generation edit

Your upload of File:Bdhs boys girls winter.jpg or contribution to its description is noted, and thanks (even if belatedly) for your contribution. In order to help make better use of the media, an attempt has been made by an automated process to identify and add certain information to the media's description page.

This notification is placed on your talk page because a bot has identified you either as the uploader of the file, or as a contributor to its metadata. It would be appreciated if you could carefully review the information the bot added. To opt out of these notifications, please follow the instructions here. Thanks!

The Darin Toohey article edit

Hi, I took the liberty of moving your article from Darin W. Toohey to Darin Toohey per Wikipedia:Middle names, since the name Darin Toohey appears in most of the sources you provided. If this causes an issue, feel free to move it back. --Richard Yin (talk) 16:51, 4 November 2014 (UTC)Reply

Colorado high school championship references edit

Hey, some time ago a dropped a link on the school project talk page to a Denver Post article listing championships. I don't have the time to look for it, but it is in the archives there somewhere. Last I checked they were keeping it updated. John from Idegon (talk) 21:38, 19 February 2016 (UTC)Reply

  • Oh, this is great. If I can find this link and the information continues from 2008, where WayBackMachine left off, then we will have a complete picture. Snowfalcon cu (talk) 22:26, 19 February 2016 (UTC)Reply
