Hi. That's the standard welcome above. This is my personal welcome, to a new TT editor. (I'm not wikipedia, I'm just another TT editor.) I was looking at the 1951 TT, and corrected the manufacturer links. They don't all follow the same pattern, maker (motorcycle) but it wasn't a bad guess, many do. Category:Motorcycle manufacturers has a list of motorcycle manufacturer article names. In the TT articles we have only been linking the first instance of each manufacturer, and limiting the number of red links for rider names. I think someone said only the first few place-getters are "notable". I didn't change that, just hidden link names. Other editors actively editing the TT-races have kept a fairly uniform structure and format that I see you are taking on anyway, (thank you for that). It takes a while to pick up the details. Usually, I open an adjacent year, copy it, and then change all the riders, times, and bike brands, and the year in the bottom stuff. Please don't hesitate to ask any questions you may have. You might be interested in the WikiProject Motorcycling page too. Seasalt 14:08, 16 December 2006 (UTC)
