Welcome!
Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. We as a community are glad to have you and thank you for creating a user account! Here are a few good links for newcomers:
- The Five Pillars of Wikipedia
- How to edit a page
- Editing, policy, conduct, and structure tutorial
- Picture tutorial
- How to write a great article
- Naming conventions
- Manual of Style
- Merging, redirecting, and renaming pages
- If you're ready for the complete list of Wikipedia documentation, there's also Wikipedia:Topical index.
Yes some of the links appear a bit boring at first, but they are VERY helpful if you ever take the time to read them.
Remember to place any articles you create into a category so we don't get orphans.
I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! By the way, please be sure to sign your name on Talk and vote pages using four tildes (~~~~) to produce your name and the current date, or three tildes (~~~) for just your name. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my Talk page. Again, welcome.

P.S. I like messages :-P
Thank you for uploading this page. I have nominated it as a copyright violation of content on "Metalstorm" - it has also been nominated for articles for Deletion.
If you believe you have rights to the content, please visit the article page to discuss why. Please do so quickly as the article may be speedily deleted.

- Deletion was probably justified. I have resurrected the article as just a paragraph on the black metal page. It contains only an introduction; it does not list the actual "rules", but has only a link to them.
I have just nominated 101 rules of progressive metal for speedy deletion for the same reasons. 86.7.214.83 16:36, 14 November 2005 (UTC)
Angel categories edit
Suggest discussing a merger of Category:Angels in Judaism and Category:Angels in Christianity. I disagree with this merger. Did this go through Categories for discussion? Were Wikipedia:WikiProject Judaism, Wikipedia:WikiProject Christianity and Wikipedia:WikiProject Religion informed? Best, --Shirahadasha 19:32, 17 May 2007 (UTC)
- Hello. (I took the liberty of editing your post and adding colons before the category names. I think that was what you meant.) No, I don't think those two should be merged. However, it seemed to me that Category:Classes of angel already dealt with both Christian and Jewish angels, so I decided to put it as a subcategory of both. It might be a good idea to split Category:Classes of angel into two: Category:Classes of angels in Christianity and Category:Classes of angels in Judaism. Do you agree?

To be honest, it's not a great fit for that noticeboard, so maybe reply here on your talk page, or here, directly to Myth, the user who asked the question :-) hope you're good...

Disambiguation link notification for February 1 edit
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Tomte, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Magic (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). 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.

Proposed deletion of Ninnghizhidda edit
The article Ninnghizhidda has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
- Although German Wiki has three sources (two of them with URL links), there's simply hardly much here to suggest better notability and improvement and my own searches also found nothing better than a few passing mentions. I also considered changing to a redirect to that mythology but this word seems unlikely as a search.
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Speedy deletion nomination of The 101 rules of black metal edit
If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on The 101 rules of black metal, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to have no meaningful content or history, and the text is unsalvageably incoherent. If the page you created was a test, please use the sandbox for any other experiments you would like to do.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. ~SML • TP 04:25, 16 September 2018 (UTC)
