ArbCom elections are now open!: new section

New page

'''Welcome!'''

[[Wikipedia:Welcome, newcomers|Welcome]] to Wikipedia, {{PAGENAME}}! My name is Ryan, aka [[User:Acetic Acid|Acetic Acid]]. I noticed that you were new and haven't received any messages yet. I just wanted to see how you were doing. Wikipedia can be a little intimidating at first, since it uses different formatting than other sites that use [[HTML]] and [[Cascading Style Sheets|CSS]]. In the long run, though, you'll find that the WikiSyntax is a lot easier and faster than those other ways. Here are a few links to get you started:

*[[Wikipedia:How to edit a page|How to edit a page]]
*[[Wikipedia:Tutorial|Editing, policy, conduct, and structure tutorial]]
*[[Wikipedia:Picture tutorial|Picture tutorial]]
*[[Wikipedia:How to write a great article|How to write a great article]]

There are a lot of policies and guides to read, but I highly recommend reading over those first. If you have any questions, feel free to leave me a message on my [[User Talk:Acetic Acid|talk page]]. Please be sure to [[Wikipedia:Sign your posts on talk pages|sign your name on Talk]] using four tildes (~~~~) to produce your name and the current date, along with a link to your user page. This way, others know when you left a message and how to find you. It's easier than having to type out your name, right? :)

I hope you enjoy contributing to Wikipedia. We can use all the help we can get! Have a nice day.
Sincerely, [[User:Acetic Acid|Ryan]]. 12:34, August 1, 2005 (UTC)

== WRT [[User:209.175.114.8]] ==

Problem with blocking IP addrs is that they can very easily be picked up by someone legit who has no intention of vandalisms. Usually IPs only get blocked if its obvious that someone has it and is continuing to use it to attack (For example, most of Gibraltar's addrspace).

==Orphaned non-free image (Image:AI calligraphic brush.png)==
Thanks for uploading '''[[:Image:AI calligraphic brush.png]]'''. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a [[WP:FU|claim of fair use]]. However, the image is currently [[WP:O|orphaned]], meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. [[WP:BOLD|You may add it back]] if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see [[Wikipedia:Non-free content#Policy|our policy for non-free media]]).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "[[Special:Contributions/{{PAGENAME}}|my contributions]]" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free images not used in any '''articles''' will be deleted after seven days, as described on [[wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion#Images.2FMedia|criteria for speedy deletion]]. Thank you. [[User:BetacommandBot|BetacommandBot]] 21:12, 14 May 2007 (UTC)
