  Welcome, and thank you for your attempt to lighten up Wikipedia. However, this is an encyclopedia and the articles are intended to be serious, so please don't make joke edits, as you did to Linux. Readers looking for information will not find them amusing. If you'd like to experiment with editing, try the sandbox, where you can write (almost) whatever you want. --The Firewall 20:31, 16 October 2008 (UTC)Reply

  Welcome, and thank you for your attempt to lighten up Wikipedia. However, this is an encyclopedia and the articles are intended to be serious, so please don't make joke edits, as you did to Robert Key (cricketer). Readers looking for accurate information will not find them amusing. If you'd like to experiment with editing, try the sandbox, where you can write practically anything you want.
