Hi, ReallyNiceGuy, Welcome to Wikipedia!

I hope you like this place — I sure do — and want to stay. Before getting too in-depth, you may want to read about the five pillars of Wikipedia. If you need help on how to title new articles check out the naming conventions, and for help on formatting the pages visit the manual of style. If you need help look at Wikipedia:Help and the FAQ , plus if you can't find your answer there, check the Village Pump (for Wikipedia related questions) or the Reference Desk (for general questions)! There's still more help at the Tutorial and Policy Library. Plus, don't forget to visit the Community Portal. And if you have any more questions after that, feel free to post them on my user talk page.


Additional tips

[edit]

Here's some extra tips to help you get around in the 'pedia!

  • If you want to play around with your new Wiki skills the Sandbox is for you.
  • You can sign your name using three tildes, like — [[User:Ilyanep|<span style="color:gray;">Ilγαηερ</span>]] [[User talk:Ilyanep|<span style="color: #333333;">(Tαlκ)</span>'']]. If you use four, you can add a datestamp too.
  • You may want to add yourself to the new user log.
  • If you ever think a page or image should be deleted, please list it at the votes for deletion page. There is also a votes for undeletion page if you want to retrieve something that you think should not have been deleted.
  • If you're bored and want to find something to do, try the Random page button in the sidebar, or check out the Open Task message in the Community Portal.

Happy Wiki-ing.

Hi RNG, what did my redirect break? --MarSch 2 July 2005 11:35 (UTC)

Hi again, I think I know. The problem is though that {main} and {seemain} are so confusing that they are not used consistently. Therefore I created the {subarticleof} and {seesubarticle} templates. Please fix by replacing uses of main by subarticle.--MarSch 2 July 2005 16:18 (UTC)

He, I didn't even check for that. And I knew about that redirect. Well some part of my brain. Thanks for the clarification. --MarSch 2 July 2005 17:37 (UTC)

Hi Marco, with 104 google hits it _is_ pretty nonnotable, so you could probably get it deleted. Also the first sentence is exactly the same as its website's first sentence, only longer. I'd say go for it :) --MarSch 10:02, 26 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Nocturnal myoclonus

[edit]

Hi, Nice Guy. I see that you redirected periodic limb movement disorder to nocturnal myoclonus (about 2 years ago). I think that this should be the other way around, with PLMD as the main article. Axl 08:50, 5 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Notification: changes to "Mark my edits as minor by default" preference

[edit]

Hello there. This is an automated message to tell you about the gradual phasing out of the preference entitled "Mark all edits minor by default", which you currently have (or very recently had) enabled.

On 13 March 2011, this preference was hidden from the user preferences screen as part of efforts to prevent its accidental misuse (consensus discussion). This had the effect of locking users in to their existing preference, which, in your case, was true. To complete the process, your preference will automatically be changed to false in the next few days. This does not require any intervention on your part and you will still be able to manually mark your edits as being 'minor'. The only thing that's changed is that you will no longer have them marked as minor by default.

For established users such as yourself there is a workaround available involving custom JavaScript. If you are familiar with the contents of WP:MINOR, and believe that it is still beneficial to the encyclopedia to have all your edits marked as such by default, then this discussion will give you the details you need to continue with this functionality indefinitely. If you have any problems, feel free to drop me a note.

Thank you for your understanding and happy editing :) Editing on behalf of User:Jarry1250, LivingBot (talk) 21:28, 14 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
