Deep impact
Welcome!
Welcome to Wikipedia, Deep impact! My name is Ryan, aka Acetic Acid. I noticed that you were new and haven't received any messages yet. I just wanted to see how you were doing. Wikipedia can be a little intimidating at first, since it uses different formatting than other sites that use HTML and CSS. In the long run, though, you'll find that the WikiSyntax is a lot easier and faster than those other ways. Here are a few links to get you started:
- How to edit a page
- Editing, policy, conduct, and structure tutorial
- Picture tutorial
- How to write a great article
There are a lot of policies and guides to read, but I highly recommend reading over those first. If you have any questions, feel free to leave me a message on my talk page. Please be sure to sign your name on Talk Pages using four tildes (~~~~) to produce your name and the current date, along with a link to your user page. This way, others know when you left a message and how to find you. It's easier than having to type out your name, right? :)
I hope you enjoy contributing to Wikipedia. We can use all the help we can get! Have a nice day. Sincerely, Acetic'Acid 18:18, 27 October 2005 (UTC)
Admin coaching edit
I noticed you signed up for a coach. I am an available coach! Since I'll be with you for a bit, here's a few things:
- You probably don't go for your RfA or accept an RfA nomination until I think you are ready, and no body guarantees you'll get it.
- Take the advice provided by me to heart—you signed up for advice, help, and guidance on Wikipedia, so I would expect you treat me with some respect and don't completely ignore what I have to say (it's happened before).
Please let me know if you agree, and we can get started. I look forward to your reply~ I have got a lot of work right now (and for the past few months) in real life for the next month, and won't be on Wikipedia my normal 15 hours or so (don't laugh). I should be done in about 5 weeks, but I think I should be here plenty.

November 2008 edit
Welcome to Wikipedia. The recent edit you made to Vietnam has been reverted, as it appears to be unconstructive. Use the sandbox for testing; if you believe the edit was constructive, ensure that you provide an informative edit summary. You may also wish to read the introduction to editing. Thank you.
