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:
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.
Redwolf24 The current date and time is 29 July 2024 T 14:23 UTC.
P.S. I like messages :-P
No prob, I love to welcome :) Yes Sabbath does rule all, but I have to say, remember to sign with ~~~~. Just write it after your comment on talk pages and the wikisoftware will change it to your user name and date. Redwolf24 16:34, 14 July 2005 (UTC)
Hi, I've noticed you've written some stubs (i.e. really short articles) on songs from The White Album recently. I was just wondering if you could take the bother to put them into a category, as all articles on wikipedia need at least one - you do that by putting [[Category:The Beatles songs]] (or whatever other category the article belongs in) at the bottom of the article. Also, these probably are song stubs, so perhaps a {{song stub}} notice on the bottom would be appropriate - I've added one on I'm So Tired so you can see what I mean. Good luck on wikipedia, Sam Vimes 16:17, 16 July 2005 (UTC)
Can you have a look at this edit: diff. I am not sure if you wanted to vote for this article or is it just a lost comment: WP:IDRIVE#Pulp Fiction (13 votes, stays until August 11). If it is a vote, can you move it to the appropriate place to clarify? Thank you. Best wishes -- Fenice 11:23, 10 August 2005 (UTC)
hello Bancroftian, please continue the good work on wikipedia. I am sure one day you shall become what you aspire to be: all the best. Happy editing. -- Bhadani 08:04, 21 August 2005 (UTC)
Sorry, but your requests for adminship was rejected. If you don't mind me giving you a tip: Try to stick around for a few more months, and get some more edits. You're doing some good stuff, but most people on Wikipedia want the administrators/sysops to be exeperienced users. See you later! — Ilγαηερ (Tαlκ) 23:27, 21 August 2005 (UTC)
You voted for Pope Shenouda III of Alexandria, this weeks' Biography Collaboration of the weeks. Please come and help them become a featured- standard article.-- Falphin 22:41, 12 September 2005 (UTC)
Some of my suggestions that could be accomplished during the BioCOTW.

I've added the "{{ prod}}" template to the article Dig It, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but I don't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and I've explained why in the deletion notice (see also Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not and Wikipedia:Importance). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, or, if you disagree, discuss the issues raised at Talk:Dig It. If you remove the {{ dated prod}} template, the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. -- Cymsdale 02:56, 1 March 2006 (UTC)
Hi Bancroftian,
I have reverted your recent attempt to add your RfA to WP:RFA. You should take another look at the Guide to RfA as your edit went a little wrong. I should also point out that most editors who express an opinion about RfAs are looking for candidates with at least 2500 edits and 3-4 months experience on Wikipedia. Some are looking for considerably more. As you are currently a long way from these marks, you may want to reconsider whether you want to apply. If you have any questions, please feel free to drop me a comment on my talk page, I'm here to help. Good luck, Gwernol 17:49, 21 July 2006 (UTC)
Sorry, but I doubt I'd support you right now. I would be looking for 2500 edits, with at least 3-4 months of high activity recently (not 6 months ago). I'd also need to be convinced that you understood policy: being active in the recent changes patrol and gaining experience on articles for deletion are good ways to gain the level of policy understanding required of an admin. You might also like to start expressing your opinions on other requests for adminship since that will give you a good feel for the debate that goes on and the standards that people apply. Gwernol 21:02, 22 July 2006 (UTC)
So what was the point of that? Are you looking to get blocked? Gamaliel 18:52, 25 July 2006 (UTC)

You or someone using your account vandalized my user page. The proof is in the edit history as you can see from the link above. Stop playing dumb. Gamaliel 20:34, 25 July 2006 (UTC)
Please see Wikipedia's no personal attacks policy. Comment on content, not on the contributor; personal attacks damage the community and deter users. Note that continued personal attacks may lead to blocks for disruption. Please stay cool and keep this in mind while editing. Thank you. Gwernol 23:19, 25 July 2006 (UTC)
Bancroftian the personal attack you made against Gamaliel is a perfect example of why you are not ready to be an administrator here. Wikipedia has a strict policy prohibiting personal attacks. Gwernol 23:19, 25 July 2006 (UTC)
A tag has been placed on
Nineteen Magazine, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article seems to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable, that is, why an article about that subject should be included in Wikipedia. Under the
criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert notability may be deleted at any time. Please
see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, and if you can indicate why the subject of this article is notable, you may contest the tagging. To do this, add {{
hangon}}
on the top of the page (below the existing db tag) and leave a note on
the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm its subject's notability under the guidelines.
For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Phatom87 20:42, 8 February 2007 (UTC)
