User talk:Dbaron

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia!

Here are some tips to help you get started:


 * If you haven't already, please add your name to the new user log to let others know a little about yourself.
 * Read the Tutorial, and feel free to experiment in the Sandbox.
 * Eventually, you might want to read the Manual of Style and Policies and Guidelines.
 * If you need help, post a question at the Help Desk or ask me on my talk page.
 * Explore, be bold in editing pages, and, most importantly, have fun!

Good luck! Jrdioko

P.S. One last helpful hint. To sign your posts like I did above (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).

Gerlach
dbaron - you might want to check on the Jim Gerlach page; an anon user keeps trying to remove info on DeLay (though they seem to have stopped adding endorsements cut-and-pasted from Gerlach's campaign page. I hope you're following the campaign... jesup 04:17, 13 October 2006 (UTC)

Neil Deakin
A template has been added to the article Neil Deakin, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice explains why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may contest the proposed deletion by removing the  notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. If you endorse deletion of the article, and you are the only person who has made substantial edits to the page, please tag it with db-author. mms 01:10, 24 July 2007 (UTC)

Thank you

 * Little to do with Wikipedia except that I couldn't read much of it very fast without a browser. Best wishes. -Susanlesch (talk) 16:17, 15 December 2007 (UTC)

Unnecessary?
Hello. Here you fixed links to redirects. That's usually considered unnecessary editing, because it doesn't change the physical effect of clicking the link, you get to the same place. (Different from links to disambs.) Or do you plan do remove that redirect altogether? (If so, why?) Best regards, --Thogo (Talk) 23:48, 10 January 2010 (UTC)
 * Hmmm. I suppose so, but the "(Redirected from TransLink (San Francisco))" message near the top has always seemed to me like a "you linked to the wrong place; shouldn't have done that" sort of message, and also a bunch of wasted vertical space that's better not to unnecessarily inflict on readers. -David Baron (talk) 00:09, 13 January 2010 (UTC)
 * Hm, ok... I never felt like that when I saw that message since I usually just don't notice that it is there, it's so small... ;) --Thogo (Talk) 15:06, 13 January 2010 (UTC)

Linking
Hi, I noticed a few years you linked. Please note that time units are not generally linked on the English Wikipedia. Thanks for your work. Tony  (talk)  09:26, 24 March 2012 (UTC)

ArbCom elections are now open!
