Sorry, it took me over a year to figure out that I needed to remove this newb tag myself. It then took me 20 minutes to actually remove it. I'm not necessarily good with the technical stuff here.Hilltrot (talk) 23:06, 26 June 2015 (UTC) Reply

    Do keep cool!
    Do maintain a neutral point of view
    Don't spam
    Don't infringe copyright
    Don't edit where you have a conflict of interest
    Don't vandalize
    Don't get blocked
If you need further help, you can:
    Ask a question
or you can:
    Get help at the Teahouse
or even:
    Ask an experienced editor to "adopt" you

Alternatively, leave me a message at my talk page or type {{helpme}} here on your talk page, and someone will try to help.

There are many ways you can contribute to Wikipedia. Here are a few ideas:
    Fight vandalism
    Be a WikiFairy or a WikiGnome
    Help contribute to articles
           
    Perform maintenance tasks
    Become a member of a project that interests you
    Help design new templates

Remember to always sign your posts on talk pages. You can do this either by clicking on the   button on the edit toolbar or by typing four tildes (~~~~) at the end of your post. This will automatically insert your signature, a link to this (your talk) page, and a timestamp.

The best way to learn about something is to experience it. Explore, learn, contribute, and don't forget to have some fun!
To get some practice editing you can use a sandbox. You can create your own private sandbox for use any time. Perfect for working on bigger projects. Then for easy access in the future, you can put {{My sandbox}} on your user page. By the way, seeing as you haven't created a user page yet, simply click here to start it.

Good catch! edit

Cheers for picking up on this Right Sector POV push. Well spotted! I've been caught up in all sorts since I got back from a short holiday, meaning that I haven't been able to keep up with every change to the article. Good to have as many sets of eyes on the article as possible.   --Iryna Harpy (talk) 04:07, 28 May 2014 (UTC)Reply

Disambiguation link notification for July 17 edit

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Moon landing, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page National Geographic. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 08:56, 17 July 2014 (UTC)Reply

Prius Game edit

Following your suggestion, I've deleted most of the Prius article, as I found it to be advertising gibberish. Thanks for the nudge. Cheers, --Seduisant (talk) 03:38, 7 August 2014 (UTC)Reply

2014 Russian military intervention in Ukraine edit

Your call at the DRV for no endorsement is a non-standard term and might not indicate what you intended. If you intended that my close of the AFD should stand, as your words there seem to indicate, then the correct call is endorse. To call for the AFD close not to stand we use overturn and then state what the decision should be overturned to. SpinningSpark 07:51, 21 August 2014 (UTC)Reply

I guess I still deserve the newb banner . . . Hilltrot (talk) 14:43, 21 August 2014 (UTC)Reply
