Welcome

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are some pages you might like to see:

You are welcome to continue editing articles without logging in, but you may wish to create an account. Doing so is free, requires no personal information, and provides several benefits. If you edit without a username, your IP address (157.166.167.129) is used to identify you instead.

In any case, I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your comments on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your IP address (or username if you're logged in) and the date. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or ask your question and then place {{helpme}} before the question on this page. Again, welcome!

September 2009 edit

  You should wait for others to write an article about subjects in which you are personally involved, as you did at Les Montgomery. This applies to articles about you, your achievements, your band, your business, your publications, your website, your relatives, and any other possible conflict of interest.

Creating an article about yourself is strongly discouraged. If you create such an article, it might be listed on articles for deletion. Deletion is not certain, but many feel strongly that you should not start articles about yourself. This is because independent creation encourages independent validation of both significance and verifiability. All edits to articles must conform to Wikipedia:No original research, Wikipedia:Neutral point of view, and Wikipedia:Verifiability.

If you are not "notable" under Wikipedia guidelines, creating an article about yourself may violate the policy that Wikipedia is not a personal webspace provider and would thus qualify for speedy deletion. If your achievements, etc., are verifiable and genuinely notable, and thus suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia, someone else will probably create an article about you sooner or later. (See Wikipedia:Wikipedians with articles.) Thank you. 79.181.9.76 (talk) 06:06, 24 September 2009 (UTC)Reply

March 2010 edit

  Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but your recent edit removed content from Istanbul. When removing text, please specify a reason in the edit summary and discuss edits that are likely to be controversial on the article's talk page. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the text has been restored, as you can see from the page history. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia, and if you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you.

May 2010 edit

 

Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to make constructive contributions to Wikipedia, but at least one of your recent edits, such as the one you made to Lose Control (Kish Mauve song), did not appear to be constructive and has been automatically reverted by ClueBot.

  • Please use the sandbox for any test edits you would like to make, and take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Note that human editors do monitor recent changes to Wikipedia articles, and administrators have the ability to block users from editing if they repeatedly engage in vandalism.
  • Cluebot produces very few false positives, but it does happen. If you believe the change you made should not have been detected as unconstructive, please report it here, remove this warning from your talk page, and then make the edit again.
  • The following is the log entry regarding this warning: Lose Control (Kish Mauve song) was changed by 157.166.167.129 (u) (t) making a minor change adding "!!!" on 2010-05-13T21:07:51+00:00 . Thank you. ClueBot (talk) 21:07, 13 May 2010 (UTC)Reply

Patterns as first-class objects edit

Thanks for your edit to the SNOBOL article. What modern languages have patterns in the SNOBOL sense as objects? Many languages support regexps (and typically treat them as a separate data type, but as a string), but that is a small subset of the SNOBOL pattern concept. --Macrakis (talk) 17:20, 20 June 2011 (UTC)Reply

December 2011 edit

  Welcome to Wikipedia. We welcome and appreciate your contributions, including your edits to List of United States presidential assassination attempts and plots, but we cannot accept original research. Original research also encompasses combining published sources in a way to imply something that none of them explicitly say. Please be prepared to cite a reliable source for all of your contributions. Thank you. You recently re-added material to the article without consensus. Consensus had been created to remove that material. Ryan Vesey Review me! 01:25, 5 December 2011 (UTC)Reply

Vandalism - 24 January 2013 edit

http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Heart_(band)&diff=prev&oldid=534526850

Thom Jurak argues that the absence of Fisher's guitar work was evident on the band's subsequent albums.<ref> But who cares, because there is no one named Thom Jurak. A guy named Thom Jurek, who writes about music, had an opinion, though. Yet again, proof that Wikipedia is not to be trusted. {{Citation |author=Jurek, Thom |title=Heart: Bebe le Strange: overview |journal=Allmusic |url=http://www.allmusic.com/album/bebe-le-strange-mw0000650242 |archiveurl=http://www.webcitation.org/69wGcqJTb |archivedate=August 16, 2012 }}</ref>

No, it's people like you who see a typo and make a smart-arse comment rather than fix it who are not to be trusted. Pdfpdf (talk) 12:26, 4 February 2013 (UTC)Reply

  Please do not add or significantly change content without citing verifiable and reliable sources, as you did with this edit to History of capitalism. Before making any potentially controversial edits, it is recommended that you discuss them first on the article's talk page. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Lugia2453 (talk) 22:19, 9 July 2013 (UTC)Reply

January 2014 edit

  Hello, I'm TCMemoire. Wikipedia is written by people who have a wide diversity of opinions, but we try hard to make sure articles have a neutral point of view. Your recent edit to The Huffington Post seemed less than neutral to me, so I removed it for now. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. TCMemoire 03:44, 23 January 2014 (UTC)Reply

  Hello, I'm BracketBot. I have automatically detected that your edit to List of University of Houston people may have broken the syntax by modifying 2 "{}"s. If you have, don't worry: just edit the page again to fix it. If I misunderstood what happened, or if you have any questions, you can leave a message on my operator's talk page.

List of unpaired brackets remaining on the page:

August 2017 edit

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page Kate Riley has been reverted.
Your edit here to Kate Riley was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove links which are discouraged per our external links guideline. The external link(s) you added or changed (https://www.facebook.com/katerileycnn/) is/are on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia.
If you were trying to insert an external link that does comply with our policies and guidelines, then please accept my creator's apologies and feel free to undo the bot's revert. However, if the link does not comply with our policies and guidelines, but your edit included other, constructive, changes to the article, feel free to make those changes again without re-adding the link. Please read Wikipedia's external links guideline for more information, and consult my list of frequently-reverted sites. For more information about me, see my FAQ page.
