Argus (monitoring software)
Hi. This article must meet our Notability Guideline using reliable sources as narrowly defined in the guideline. Otherwise it's going to be deleted very soon. Please add sourcing information ASAP.

Thanks, -- A. B. (talk) 19:38, 3 February 2008 (UTC)

PS. Sorry for the abrupt, mildly unfriendly introduction to Wikipedia.


 * New articles by new editors get deleted quickly if they don't look kosher -- we get dozens of spam articles per hour. Hence the rushed nature of my first message.


 * OK, well now it's time to welcome you properly: Welcome.


 * Some folks leave grand welcome statements with links to a bazillion procedures, help pages, rules, etc. We've got over 40 policies and 20 guidelines and nobody besides Adrian Monk has ever read them all.


 * I'll keep it simple -- read the "Simplified Ruleset" closely and that will give you 90% of what you need to know and the rest you can pick up as you go.


 * Again, welcome. -- A. B. (talk) 20:36, 3 February 2008 (UTC)
