User talk:Maltaran

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!

The "problem" is copying text from another site without permission.Besides,bios here are supposed to be NPOV,not "official".--Louis E./le@put.com/12.144.5.2 21:29, 31 May 2005 (UTC)

MPs - chronological order v. reverse chronological order
Hey, you've reverted the change I made to Cheadle (constituency) claiming that reverse chronological order was the standard agreed. Where was it agreed, exactly? Reverse chronological order for election results was agreed, but nothing was said about MPs as far as I'm aware. Chronological order makes so much more sense for MPs than reverse. (ps: you can reply here as your talk page is being watched).

 * I changed it because there was absolutely no discussion to put it in place, so I felt I was under no obligation to discuss changing it before hand. It simply didn't make sense to me, the style guide shouldn't really be taken too seriously because most of it hasn't been discussed and is just one person's view. -- Joolz 11:01, 13 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Greetings lemming
Hey Maltaran,

FYI, they deleted the old picture of Yeardii scowling, so I updated your userbox with a new picture. I know it's a bit creepy, but it's the best of the lot. In case you wanted to choose your own, here are your choices, as well as the one on the Terry Goodkind page proper. WLU 16:56, 23 August 2007 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Memories of Ice


A tag has been placed on Memories of Ice requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article or image appears to be a clear copyright infringement. This article or image appears to be a direct copy from http://nyanglish.com/anomander-rake. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website or image but have permission from that owner, see Requesting copyright permission. You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.
