User talk:J.B. Nicholson-Owens

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!

Sheehan audio
Thanks for the good work on the Sheehan article but people will realize once clicking onto the DemNow! links that transcripts, audio, and video (in various formats) are included there; thus no need for extra direct links to audio. Badagnani 22:55, 20 August 2005 (UTC)

I'm not sure how to respond to the above message from Badagnani, but here goes: The audio is only in non-free formats, namely RealAudio and MP3. The links to the Ogg Vorbis files are not linked to from DN!'s transcript pages despite that free formats are available on archive.org as well. I was under the impression that Wikipedia cared about Ogg Vorbis audio more than other formats, hence the links to the Ogg Vorbis formats would be welcome. J.B.
