A welcome from Andy Shen
Hi,, Welcome  to Wikipedia! I'm Andy Shen. I noticed that you were new and/or have yet to receive any messages so I just thought I'd pop in to say "hello". We're glad to have you in our community! I hope you like this place &mdash; I sure do &mdash; and want to stay. Wikipedia can be a little intimidating at first, since it's so big but we won't bite so Be Bold and get what you know down in microchips! If you do make a mistake, that's fine, we'll assume good faith and just correct you: it'll take a few seconds maximum! Here, however, are a few links to get you started:


 * If you haven't already, drop by the New user log and tell others a bit about yourself.
 * Always sign your posts on talk pages! That way, others will know who left which comments.
 * The Five Pillars of Wikipedia
 * Simplified Ruleset
 * How to edit a page
 * Editing, policy, conduct, and structure tutorial
 * Picture tutorial
 * How to write a great article
 * Naming conventions
 * Manual of Style
 * Wikipedia Glossary

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


 * I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Though we all make goofy mistakes, here is what Wikipedia is not. If you have any questions or concerns, don't hesitate to see the help pages or add a question to the village pump. The Community Portal can also be very useful.
 * If you want to play around with your new Wiki skills the Sandbox is for you.
 * You can sign your name using three tildes (~). 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 still entirely confused, or would like to get a better grasp of your wikipedia skills, and you have an IRC client (or don't mind getting one), check out the Bootcamp. It's not what it sounds like, but it is fun and can help you with your editing skills.
 * 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.
 * P.S. Feel free to leave a message on my talk page if you need help with anything or simply wish to say hello. :)

Happy Wiki-ing.

Just generally the whole thing is over the top and praising him too much. Dengero (talk) 08:22, 6 October 2008 (UTC)
 * I just edited the first paragraph to show how much there is to improve. "Legendary" and "intense" and "very popular" are words you shouldn't use unless taken in direct quotes. Dengero (talk) 00:30, 7 October 2008 (UTC)
 * I still see heaps of objective words such as "great acting", "well-known movie star", and even whole sentences like "Whether he is the lead actor or second lead, all the series he has been in have always been received well in public." which can't be put in unless supported by a reference.

 * Forums don't count but you are getting there, still a bit more to cut out. Dengero (talk) 09:56, 8 October 2008 (UTC)
