User talk:JohnDavies

Welcome!
Hello,, Welcome  to Wikipedia! '''I hope you like working here and want to continue. If you need help on how to name new articles, look at the Guide to Layout, and for help on formatting the pages visit the Manual of Style. If you need general help, look at Help and the FAQ, and if you can't find your answer there, check the Village Pump (for Wikipedia related questions) or the Reference Desk (for general questions). There's still more help at the Tutorial and the Policy Library. Also, don't forget to visit the Community Portal &mdash; and if you have any more questions after that, feel free to post them on my New-Users' Talk Page.'''

Additional tips:
 * Here are some extra tips to help you get around Wikipedia:
 * If you want to play around with your new Wiki skills, try the Sandbox.
 * Click on the Edit button on a page, and look at how other editors did what they did.
 * You can sign your name using three tildes, like this: &#126;&#126;&#126;. If you use four, you can add a datestamp too. Always sign comments on Talk pages, never sign Articles.
 * You might want to add yourself to the New User Log
 * If your first language isn't English, try Contributing to articles outside your native language
 * Full details on Wikipedia style can be found in the Manual of Style.

There's also a regular group introduction to Wikipedia for new users on IRC.

Happy editing! --Mel Etitis ( Μελ Ετητης ) 16:08, 27 February 2006 (UTC)

User page
I'm afraid that we don't allow editors to add articles about themselves. Rather than deleting it, I've moved it to your User page (User:JohnDavies). --Mel Etitis ( Μελ Ετητης ) 16:08, 27 February 2006 (UTC)


 * Thanks for your reply. There's a little more leeway concerning people editing articles on themselves (though it's still deprecated), but as you started this article yourself, that didn't appply, I'm afraid.  I hope that you'll feel that you want to stay and contribute anyway. --Mel Etitis  ( Μελ Ετητης ) 16:44, 27 February 2006 (UTC)


 * I wonder if we're talking at cross purposes? I'm talking about the article that's now at User:JohnDavies, with this History. --Mel Etitis  ( Μελ Ετητης ) 17:05, 27 February 2006 (UTC)
