Hello {{PAGENAME}}, '''[[Wikipedia:Welcome, newcomers|welcome]]''' to Wikipedia!

Here are some tips:
*'''Take a look at the [[Wikipedia:Simplified Ruleset|Simplified Ruleset]].'''
*Read the [[Wikipedia:Tutorial|Tutorial]], [[Wikipedia:How to edit a page|How to edit a page]] and the [[Wikipedia:Manual of Style|Manual of Style]].
*Find out how to [[WP:RV|revert]], [[Wikipedia:Merging and moving pages|move and merge]] pages.
*[[Wikipedia:Sign your posts on talk pages|Sign your posts on talk pages]] using four tildes (~~~~).
*Add yourself to the [[Wikipedia:New user log|New user log]] and a [[WP:RNB|regional notice board]]
*Ask questions at the [[Wikipedia:Village pump|Village pump]] or [[Wikipedia:Help desk|Help desk]].
*Use the [[Wikipedia:Show preview|Show preview]] button

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 '''{{MediaWiki:edit}}''' link. Wikipedia convention is to [[Wikipedia:be bold|be bold]] and not be afraid of making mistakes. If you're not sure how editing works, have a look at [[Wikipedia:how to edit a page|''How to edit a page'']], or try out the [[Wikipedia:Sandbox|Sandbox]] to test your editing skills.

If, for some reason, you are unable to [[Wikipedia:How_to_edit_a_page | fix a problem yourself]], feel free to ask someone else to do it. Wikipedia has a vibrant [[Wikipedia:Community_Portal | community of contributors]] who have a wide range of skills and specialties, and many of them would be glad to help. As well as the wiki community pages there are [[meta:IRC Channels | IRC Channels]], where you are more than welcome to ask for assistance.

If you have any questions, feel free to '''ask me''' on [[User talk:Wiki alf|my talk page]]. Thanks and happy editing, [[User:Wiki alf|Alf]] 11:06, 1 September 2005 (UTC).

== Edit summary ==

Hi MathsIsFun. I have a small request. I would like to ask you to put an [[edit summary]] more often when you contribute. I hope you don't mind. :) Thanks. [[User:Oleg Alexandrov|Oleg Alexandrov]] ([[User talk:Oleg Alexandrov|talk]]) 02:42, 16 December 2005 (UTC)

==Orphaned fair use image (Image:Braille-alphabet.gif)==
Thanks for uploading '''[[:Image:Braille-alphabet.gif]]'''. 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 under fair use (see [[Wikipedia:Fair use#Policy|our fair use policy]]).

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 fair use 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:Fibonacci|Fibonacci]] 01:57, 6 April 2007 (UTC)

== COI concerns ==
{{{icon|[[Image:Information.svg|25px|left]] }}}If you have a close connection to some of the people, places or things you have written about {{#if:{{{1|}}}|in the article [[{{{1}}}]]|on Wikipedia}}, you may have a [[Wikipedia:Conflict of interest|conflict of interest]]. In keeping with Wikipedia's [[Wikipedia:Neutral point of view|neutral point of view]] policy, edits where there is a conflict of interest, or where such a conflict might reasonably be inferred from the tone of the edit and the proximity of the editor to the subject, are strongly discouraged. If you have a conflict of interest, you should '''avoid''' or '''exercise great caution''' when:
#'''editing''' articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with,
#'''participating''' in [[Wikipedia:Deletion policy#Deletion_processes|deletion discussions]] about articles related to your organization or its competitors,
# '''linking''' to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see [[Wikipedia:Spam]]);
#:and you must always:
# '''avoid breaching''' relevant policies and guidelines, especially [[Wikipedia:Neutral point of view|neutral point of view]], [[Wikipedia:Attribution|attribution]], and [[Wikipedia:Autobiography|autobiography]].

For more details, please read the [[Wikipedia:Conflict of Interest|Conflict of Interest]] guideline. {{{2|Thank you.}}} [[User:RJASE1|RJASE1]] [[User talk:RJASE1| <sup>Talk</sup> ]] 14:02, 11 April 2007 (UTC)

== RFC discussion of your username (MathsIsFun) ==
Hello, [[User:MathsIsFun|MathsIsFun]], and thank you for contributing to Wikipedia! Wikipedia has a [[Wikipedia:Username|policy]] on what usernames editors can use. Unfortunately, concerns have been raised that your username may be [[Wikipedia:Username#Inappropriate_usernames|incompatible]] with that policy. {{{1|}}} You can contribute to the discussion about it [[Wikipedia:Requests for comment/User names/{{BASEPAGENAME}}|here]]. Alternatively, if you agree that your username may be problematic and are willing to change it, it is possible for you to keep your present contributions history under a new name. Simply request a new name [[Wikipedia:Changing username|here]] following the guidelines on that page, rather than creating a whole new account. Thank you. -- [[User:RJASE1|RJASE1]] [[User talk:RJASE1| <sup>Talk</sup> ]] 17:22, 11 April 2007 (UTC)  [[User:RJASE1|RJASE1]] [[User talk:RJASE1| <sup>Talk</sup> ]] 17:22, 11 April 2007 (UTC)

Your userpage seems to be an ad for a website with the same name as your username. It's really not a good idea to do that - Wikipedia is [[WP:NOT|not a soapbox]]. Also, it seems like you've made lots of valuable contributions, and some of those will be questioned because of the perception some may have that you are editing in order to promote your website. It might be a good idea to change your username, and it might be a good idea to rewrite your userpage: it's good to mention your affiliation with your website, that's just being honest, but it could be a lot more limited. See this [[Wikipedia:Administrators%27_noticeboard/IncidentArchive227#MathsIsFun.C2.A0.28talk.C2.A0.C2.B7_contribs.29|WP:ANI thread]] for some discussion.

==[[:Image:Hexadecimal-multiplication-table.png]]==
[[Image:Information_icon.svg|left]]Hello, this is a message from [[User:Android Mouse Bot 2|an automated bot]]. A tag has been placed on [[:Image:Hexadecimal-multiplication-table.png]], by {{#ifeq:1|1|[[User:Bernard Ladenthin|Bernard Ladenthin]] ([[User talk:Bernard Ladenthin|talk]] '''·''' [[Special:Contributions/Bernard Ladenthin|contribs]]),}} another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be [[Wikipedia:Speedy deletions|speedily deleted]] from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because [[:Image:Hexadecimal-multiplication-table.png]] fits the criteria for speedy deletion for the following reason: <br><div class="center">'''I have maked an svg image, and replaced all links, this could be deleted now'''</div><br>To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting [[:Image:Hexadecimal-multiplication-table.png]], please affix the template <nowiki>{{hangon}}</nowiki> to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at [[WP:WMD]]. Feel free to contact the [[User:Android Mouse Bot 2|bot operator]] if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that '''this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself.''' --[[User:Android Mouse Bot 2|Android Mouse Bot 2]] 12:51, 1 August 2007 (UTC)

==Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Mif-120x60.gif==
Thank you for uploading '''[[:Image:Mif-120x60.gif]]'''. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this image under "fair use" may not meet the criteria required by [[Wikipedia:Non-free content]]. This can be corrected by going to the image description page and add or clarify the reason why the image qualifies for fair use. Adding and completing one of the templates available from [[Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline]] is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a fair use rationale is not the same as an [[Wikipedia:Image copyright tags/Non-free|image copyright tag]]; descriptions for images used under the fair use policy require both a copyright tag and a fair use rationale.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it might be deleted by adminstrator within a few days in accordance with our [[Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion#Images/media|criteria for speedy deletion]]. If you have any questions, please ask them at the [[Wikipedia:Media copyright questions|media copyright questions page]]. Thank you.[[User:BetacommandBot|BetacommandBot]] ([[User talk:BetacommandBot|talk]]) 16:04, 8 March 2008 (UTC)

<div class="floatleft" style="margin-bottom:0">[[File:Ambox warning pn.svg|42px]]</div>I have nominated [[Math Is Fun]], an article that you created, for [[Wikipedia:Deletion policy|deletion]]. I do not think that this article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at [[Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Math Is Fun  (2nd nomination)]]. Your opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns.

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

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 ([[Help_talk:Minor_edit#Should_we_remove_the_Preference_setting_to_.22Mark_all_edits_minor_by_default.22_.3F|consensus discussion]]). This had the effect of locking users in to their existing preference, which, in your case, was <code>true</code>. To complete the process, your preference will automatically be changed to <code>false</code> 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 [[Wikipedia:Village_pump_(technical)/Archive_78#Preference_to_mark_all_edits_minor_by_default_asked_to_be_removed_in_bugzilla:24313|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]], [[User:LivingBot|LivingBot]] ([[User talk:LivingBot|talk]]) 19:11, 14 March 2011 (UTC)
