User talk:Clouseau

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia! Hope you like it here, and stick around.

Here are some tips to help you get started:


 * To sign your posts (on talk pages, for example) use the '~' symbol. To insert just your name, type &#126;&#126;&#126; (3 tildes), or, to insert your name and timestamp, use &#126;&#126;&#126;&#126; (4 tildes).
 * Try the Tutorial, and feel free to experiment in the test area.
 * If you need help, post a question at the Help Desk
 * Follow the Simplified Ruleset
 * Eventually, you might want to read the Manual of Style and Policies and Guidelines.
 * Remember Neutral point of view
 * Explore, be bold in editing pages, and, most importantly, have fun!

Good luck!

P.P.S. I saw your entry on bete noire (sorry, can't do the accent mark thing). I'd like to see it kept, but we generally prefer things that are more than what you might find in a dictionary. Is there any way you could expand it? For inspiration, you might want to take a look at villain, or consider a redirect to another page. Best wishes.

Bete noire
OK, no problem. Personally, I'm not sure how it could be expanded, but good luck to you. However, don't take it too hard if someone comes across it and puts it on Votes for deletion. We still appreciate all the work. Thanks again, [[User:Meelar|Meelar (talk)]] 22:56, 10 Jul 2004 (UTC)
