Welcome to Wikipedia!I should have done this before but better late than never, right? welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you like it here and decide to stay. Here are some tips:
If you feel a change is needed, feel free to make it yourself! Wikipedia is a wiki, so anyone (yourself included) can edit any article by following the Edit this page link. Wikipedia convention is to be bold and not be afraid of making mistakes. If you're not sure how editing works, have a look at How to edit a page, or try out the Sandbox to test your editing skills. If, for some reason, you are unable to fix a problem yourself, feel free to ask someone else how to do it. Wikipedia has a vibrant community of contributors who have a wide range of skills and specialties, and many of them would be glad to help. Just click on this link and type {{helpme}} followed by your question. An experienced editor will be along shortly to answer your question 24/7. There are also the help pages for self-help and the village pump and IRC Channels where you are more than welcome to ask for assistance. You should also feel free to ask me on my Talk page. I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and vote pages using three tildes, like this: ~~~. Four tildes(~~~~) produces your name and the current date. Please do not add this signature to encyclopedia articles you may edit, however, even if you have created them. Wikipedia articles are owned by the community, not by any one person. Your contribution is credited on articles' history pages. Again, welcome! —WAvegetarian•(talk) 16:28, 21 February 2007 (UTC) vandal patrolThanks for helping out. If you could remember to subst your warnings it would be very helpful, e.g. {{subst:test}}. It means that the code gets place directly rather than being called from elsewhere.—WAvegetarian•(talk) 15:49, 21 February 2007 (UTC) Administrators Against VandalismThis is the place to go if you to wish to report someone as being a persistent vandal. All you have to do is add the IP address of the person that you are wanting to report in the following format: If the IP address is 123.456.789, you would write {{IPVandal|123.456.789}} at the bottom of the list. This gives the admins links to their contributions, their talk page, and some other listings that deal with location. One thing to keep in mind though is that you should only report someone that vandalized after their final warning. If you have any questions, feel free to ask me on my talk page. Good luck! --Cyrus Andiron t/c 16:10, 21 February 2007 (UTC) Your edit summary on AtheistYou said "athestists dont even belive in satin." However, I do know a few who believe in denim. :D Justin Eiler 23:21, 26 February 2007 (UTC)
Hi. A user category that you are in has been proposed for deletion at Wikipedia:User categories for discussion. You are welcome to comment. Cheers! bd2412 T 02:09, 21 October 2007 (UTC) Silverfang?Just wondering if this user is a person known as SilverFang who has visited the Faerie sanctuary in TN? -- SatyrTN (talk | contribs) 02:36, 1 March 2007 (UTC)
Vandalism warningsOn a user's page, you changed my vandalism warning from a level 3 to a level 4 before adding your own level 4. It is not appropriate to do so... please next time simply add your level 4 warning after the level 3. 20:24, 2 March 2007 (UTC)
Typo fix on User talk:71.247.233.93I see you fixed a typo in a warning on User talk:71.247.233.93. I know how to type, really I do :-p It turns out there was a a small error in {{uw-own3}} that was making whitespace get eaten by the ParserFunction. —dgiestc 17:22, 16 March 2007 (UTC) Fair Use ImagesHello. I leave you this message to prevent further disputes. I recently removed some fair use images from your user boxes. I'm afraid I cannot allow you to use copyrighted images, such as the Star Wars logo, on your user page, since this practice is forbidden in Wikipedia:Fair_use#Policy item #9. If you have any questions, please refer to the provided link for the Wikipedia policy, User:Durin's explanation of fair use image removal at User:Durin/Removal of fair use images, leave a message on my talk page, or ask other Wikipedians. Yours truly, BoricuaeddieTalk • Contribs • Spread the love! 21:44, 26 April 2007 (UTC)
ok I will remove it.--Fang 23 00:06, 27 April 2007 (UTC) oh its already removed.--Fang 23 00:10, 27 April 2007 (UTC) db-repostA tag has been placed on EvoWiki, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion debate, such as articles for deletion. If you can indicate how EvoWiki is different from the previously posted material, or if you can indicate why this article should not be deleted, I advise you to place the template {{hangon}} underneath the other template on the article, and also put a note on Talk:EvoWiki saying why this article should stay. An admin should check for such edits before deleting the article. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Please read our criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item 4 under General criteria. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. We welcome your help in trying to improve Wikipedia, and we request you to follow these instructions. -wizzard2k (C•T•D) 14:52, 24 May 2007 (UTC) Re: EvoWikiFixed. One of the database tables got currupted (mediawiki does that from time to time).

Kevin.gouldI've also allowed e-mail for the account. They can drop me a note or use an unblock template if it is the case. bibliomaniac15 02:14, 17 February 2008 (UTC) H. erectusRegards this edit, though there are definitely social aspects to the post, I think the strength post could be moved out of social aspects and back into description 'cause obviously strength isn't a social aspect. Whaddya think? WLU (talk) 15:47, 20 February 2008 (UTC)
Paleolithic referencesSaw your comment on Phenylalanine's talk page about Paleolithic possibly getting to good article status. I did some copy editing and formatting on it—looked good generally, but you should pick a standard way of referencing and stick with it throughout. There are quite a few different styles used, and though it is not very important to the article's content, it is something that GA reviewers look for. Thought I might let you know so you can preempt the possibility of a reviewer telling you to be consistent. --Kakofonous (talk) 23:03, 6 March 2008 (UTC) Reduction in scope of {{Template:Forms of government}}Since you have been active on the template talk page before, I thought I would let you know that I have initiated a debate to reduce the size of {{Template:Forms of government}} here. Thanks, --Lmbstl (talk) 05:58, 7 March 2008 (UTC) Barnstar
Thank you very much i am going to put this barnstar on my userpage!--Fang 23 (talk) 19:57, 22 March 2008 (UTC) I think I see what you're trying to say, but please explain what you mean by "parity". The citations don't mean anything unless there is a specific assertion to cite, e.g. women spend much more time engaged in such-and-such activity than men spend in whatever other activity. If you can be more specific perhaps I can be more constructive in my next revision. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Losecontrol (talk • contribs) 02:18, 25 March 2008 (UTC) I mean that the Gender relations of Hunter gatherers (especially simple Hunter-gathers that are grouped in Bands) such as the !Kung/San and the Mbuti are usually egalitarian or at the very least are more egalitarian than the gender relations of Agricultural tribes. The author of the source i cited a professor at Harvard university Thomas M Kifer said himself in these exact words "Gender relationships are often, though not invariably, egalitarian" in the paragraph of his article/lecture [1] that describes the Characteristics of Foraging Societies, since i don’t want to add the sourced information in his exact words (that would be copyright infringement which is illegal) I made a new original sentence that conveys the same information (by using different words such as parity in place of equal or "egalitarian").--Fang 23 (talk) 03:00, 25 March 2008 (UTC) Thanks for your explanation. I understand what you're saying much better now, and I completely agree. I would recommend that you mention the comparison to agricultural societies as you did above. My apologies for not understanding your original meaning. LC | Talk 04:44, 25 March 2008 (UTC) Prehistoric HawaiiI'm assuming you intend to replace Ancient Hawaii with your subpage. You write, "due to a lack of written records from this time period, nearly all of our knowledge of prehistoric Hawaiian society comes from archeology." I'm curious where you get this strange idea, considering the rich oral history of the Hawaiians that has been passed on by people like David Malo, Samuel M. Kamakau, and John Papa I'i. —Viriditas | Talk 10:12, 29 March 2008 (UTC)
Thank you...For reverting the vandalism to my user page. -- Roleplayer (talk) 00:20, 2 April 2008 (UTC) HAGGERThe pagemove Hagger vandal that has been vandalising wikipedia and other wikis is also being disruptive at my sites Palaeos and EvoWiki can you (or some one else who is a checkuser) please use checkuser on the hagger usernames on wikipedia and tell me what their ip addresses are so i can block those ip addresses at Palaeos (and get someone else to block these usernames on EvoWiki since I don’t have administrator privileges there.--Fang 23 (talk) 14:39, 26 April 2008 (UTC)
I don’t know what other check users think because I haven’t asked them but however, CaribDigita has suggested here that we can slow down or get rid of the hagger/grawp vandal by notifying the people at godaddy.com by giving them an email at abuse@godaddy.com. Do you think that is a good idea?--Fang 23 (talk) 22:24, 6 May 2008 (UTC)
howdysorry to pop up out of the blue like this, but i was wondering if i could just ask you a favor - the article on Naomi Klein is pretty regularly besieged by pov editors attempting to violate WP:undue by focusing disproportionately on the minority of criticisms of her recent book while failing to acknowledge the overwhelming majority of praise. whatever one's personal feelings on the book, it's pretty inarguable that it was well reviewed by most people, which wikipedia should naturally reflect. sorry to ask you, but i've been dealing with the same people for months, and it gets pretty boring reverting the same silliness over and over. i got into a thing like this over on the ralph nader page a few months ago with a user who was later found to be a sock puppet and blocked. if you could just keep an eye on it from time to time, it would be much appreciated. i'll be posting this message on a few other user pages just in case you've got your plate full or just plum don't wanna do it. thanks Marshmellowgoggles (talk) 13:17, 6 June 2008 (UTC) userbox relocationHi, just a heads-up that a userbox you have on your pages (interest in conspiracy theories) has changed location to User:Sappho'd/Userboxes/Conspiracybutnoreptoids Cheers. Drywontonmee (talk) 07:09, 28 June 2008 (UTC) Free Territory (Ukraine)Your lasted edit Free Territory (Ukraine) is quite confusing. Mind clearing up the confusion? "In practice, the Makhnoists formed a system of government similar to a republic over the area they controlled, Makhno used forced conscription and summary executions though unlike the Bolsheviks the Makhnoists rerely used forced conscription and summary executions and most Makhnoist "militiamen" enlisted voluntarily." Did he or did he not? Or only rarely? --WhiteShark(talk) 20:35, 29 June 2008 (UTC) To all members of the Anarchist Task Force - about improvement of the AI-Wiki-pageI have just joined the Anarchist Task Force, and I have had some problems with publishing of my Anarchist International Wikipedia page, see my sandbox http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Anna_Quist/Anarchist_International for the present version/proposal. This page needs improvements to reach Wiki-consensus, and this should be a somewhat collective project to avoid a "COI"-template. As I am new to editing here on Wikipedia I need help with the page, I hope for your cooperation with this improvement. As an introduction to this cooperation, feel free to read this note on my talk page: Any contribution, matter of fact criticism, to give input and advice, or even contribute to new sections, will be helpful, and is much appreciated. Please join in the project... (Anna Quist (talk) 17:07, 29 July 2008 (UTC)) Remember to submit a DYK when you go live with this article. If you need help, let me know.

Palaeos.orgI am the person who performed most of the the Palaeos.org wiki and Evo Wiki vandalism. The original WP pagemove vandal had nothing to do with it, I was just copying his style. I am not trolling or anything, all I want to say is that I am retiring from Palaeos and EvoWiki vandalism because I was IP-banned at Palaeos and I just got bored with EvoWiki and I have a life now. I hope you and the others at the site realize the personal attacks I made were for pure shock value, not anything personal. --SuspendedFromYoutube6Times (talk) 21:15, 17 January 2009 (UTC) Hartford Meetup: We need your help!The next Connecticut Wikipedia meetup will take place sometime during April 2009 at Real Art Ways cafe and arts center in Hartford, Connecticut.
