User talk:Hedgehog0

Welcome!

Hello,, and welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines for page creation, and may soon be deleted.

There's a page about creating articles you may want to read called Your first article. If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the New contributors' help page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type   on this page, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Here are a few other good links for newcomers: I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes ( ~ ); this will automatically produce your name and the date. If you have any questions, check out Where to ask a question or ask me on. Again, welcome! ukexpat (talk) 22:56, 23 April 2009 (UTC)

Speedy deletion of User:Hedgehog0
A tag has been placed on User:Hedgehog0, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be blatant advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an encyclopedia article. Please read the guidelines on spam as well as FAQ/Business for more information.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you. ukexpat (talk) 22:56, 23 April 2009 (UTC)

Hi there. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( &#126;&#126;&#126;&#126; ) at the end of your comment. If you can't type the tilde character, you should click on the signature button located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your name and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you! --SineBot (talk) 10:54, 14 May 2009 (UTC)

Hi

Thanks. If a user is signed in when they make the comments then why doesn't the system do the insertion automatically?

Furthermore, from what I've seen the system does insert some user info. For example:

"—Preceding unsigned comment added by Hedgehog0 (talk • contribs) 08:19, 14 May 2009 (UTC)"

Indeed, you were able to identify that I've recently made changes! Thus, if so inclined a user can identify another user even if they do not add the tildes.

 * Hi Graham
 * "SineBot" is a "bot" (a user, but with a script behind it rather than a human). It will sign for you if you don't, but it will then spam you with annoying messages about how to sign ;-)
 * Also, for users with pages "watchlisted", this will show up as two separate edits to a page - one from you, and one from SineBot. It's generally considered preferable to sign edits yourself, but if you can live the SineBot spam I wouldn't worry too much about it!

Hi

Probably should append a "no reply".

Better still, turn off the sinebot.

Graham


 * Hi Graham
 * You can turn off the SineBot on a page-by-page basis, if I remember correctly, but to be honest I tend to always sign anyway, so I find it useful if I forget for SineBot to step-up.
 * If you're interested, I could dig out the "tell SineBot to leave me alone" documentation?
