Hello, Rosenborg, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thanks for your contributions; I hope you like it here and decide to stay. We're glad to have you in our community! Here are a few good links for newcomers:

I hope you enjoy editing and being a Wikipedian. Although we all make mistakes, please keep in mind what Wikipedia is not. If you have any questions or concerns, don't hesitate to see the help pages or add a question to the village pump. The Community Portal can also be very useful.

Happy editing!

P.S. Feel free to leave a message on my talk page. :)

Hello Rosenborg; thanks for the thanks! :) It is possible to delete an article, but only administrators may do so. However, if you wish to have it deleted quickly, type {{d}} at the top of the article page. But before doing so, could you please tell me the name of the article so I can take a look at it? If there's a typo in the title, I can move the article and its page history to the correct one spelling of the title. And deepest apologies, but I'm afraid I don't understand your second question: When I search for my contribution, I see that I have to write exactly the topic, why doesn't it work if i for example uses small letters in stead of capitals? Can you please explain it to me a bit more clearly? I will try my very best to help. Regards, Sango123 17:48, July 15, 2005 (UTC)
Oh, and one more thing: Please add ~~~~ at the end of your messages. It'll produce a link to your user page and a time stamp, so others may know who wrote a comment, especially on talk pages when others may want to respond. Thanks, Sango123 17:51, July 15, 2005 (UTC)

Thank you very much for the clarification. Wikipedia is case-sensitive, but try typing it now. It redirects to the main page. Please see Wikipedia:Redirect to see how I did it. Sango123 18:00, July 15, 2005 (UTC)

No problem! If you have anything other questions, no matter what they are, don't hesitate to ask. :) Sango123 18:06, July 15, 2005 (UTC)

Response to this question: Is it not possible for me to change the name of the team to my example (house) in your reply too? Do you mean if it's possible to redirect to anything? If that's the meaning of your question, then yes; you may redirect (edited by Rosenborg) to the House article, but such redirects are usually deleted. If that's not the meaning of your question, could you please explain a bit further? Thanks, Sango123 18:19, July 15, 2005 (UTC)

Before I say anything else - You mean moving pages and all content under a new title? Sango123 18:32, July 15, 2005 (UTC)

I'm glad everything's sorted out. :) Sango123 18:43, July 15, 2005 (UTC)

Welcome, Rosenborg. Perhaps you could add yourself (i.e. your user page) to the Category:Wikipedians in Norway? Punkmorten 00:28, 4 February 2006 (UTC)Reply

Image:Mikael dorsin.jpg edit

Thanks for uploading Image:Mikael dorsin.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:

  1. Go to the image description page and edit it to add {{Replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template.
  2. On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or a similar) image under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that any fair use images which are replaceable by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Rettetast 19:05, 6 May 2007 (UTC)Reply

Non-free use disputed for Image:Steinkjer FK.jpg edit

  This file may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:Steinkjer FK.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our Criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 04:34, 3 July 2007 (UTC)Reply

Wikimania 2010 could be coming to Stockholm! edit

I'm leaving you a note as you may be interested in this opportunity.

People from all six Nordic Wiki-communities (sv, no, nn, fi, da and is) are coordinating a bid for Wikimania 2010 in Stockholm. I'm sending you a message to let you know that this is occurring, and over the next few months we're looking for community support to make sure this happens! See the bid page on meta and if you like such an idea, please sign the "supporters" list at the bottom. Tack (or takk), and have a wonderful day! Mike H. Fierce! 08:07, 6 August 2008 (UTC)Reply
