Welcome!
editWelcome to Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia! You don't have to log in to read or edit articles on Wikipedia, but you may wish to create an account. Doing so is free, requires no personal information, and provides several benefits, including:
- The use of a username of your choice, provided that it is appropriate.
- The use of your own watchlist, which shows when articles you are interested in have changed.
- The ability to create new pages.
- The ability to rename pages.
- The ability to edit semi-protected pages.
- The ability to upload images.
- The ability to customize the appearance and behavior of the website.
- Your IP address will no longer be visible to other users.
We hope that you choose to become a Wikipedian and create an account. Feel free to ask me any questions you may have on my talk page. By the way, make sure to sign and date your comments with four tildes (~~~~). Bushcarrot (Talk·Desk) 04:20, 21 January 2007 (UTC)
Page blanking and removal of tags
editPlease do not replace Wikipedia pages or sections with blank content. It is considered vandalism. Please use the sandbox for any other tests you want to do. Take a look at the welcome page if you would like to learn more about contributing to our encyclopedia. Thanks.
In case you were not aware of it (or maybe you missed the paradigm shift), in the 21st century global information community, Big Brother has been replaced by millions of Little Brothers, including many inorganic ones, so your online behavior here is always being watched.
Other editors have the four articles being discussed at WP:COI/N#Paul Ulrich on their watchlists, so changes made to any of them (including your blanking of Talk:Saudi Match Point and removing the {{coi}}
tag from Jing Ulrich) are recorded and reported immediately ... also, your edit history is available to everyone, so it is easy for any editor involved in Wikipedia:Recent changes patrol activities to detect and revert your other vandalism as well.
Such childish behavior from a Hong Kong IP address is not at all helpful to User:Pulrich (talk · contribs), who for whatever reason has chosen not to participate in these on-going discussions. —68.239.79.82 20:08, 29 May 2007 (UTC)
Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to make constructive contributions to Wikipedia, at least one of your recent edits, such as the one you made to Foreign direct investment, did not appear to be constructive and has been reverted or removed. 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. Thank you. A link to the edit I have reverted can be found here: link. If you believe this edit should not have been reverted, please contact me. the_undertow talk 04:55, 20 April 2008 (UTC)

editWelcome to Wikipedia. The recent edit you made to the page Chocolate Rain has been reverted, as it appears to be unconstructive. Use the sandbox for testing; if you believe the edit was constructive, please ensure that you provide an informative edit summary. You may also wish to read the introduction to editing. Thank you.

editHello, I'm Jetstreamer. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Ethiopian Airlines, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so! If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you.
