User talk:Miss Pippa

Welcome!

 * Hi,, Welcome to Wikipedia!

I hope you like this place--I sure do--and want to stay. If you need help on how to title new articles check out Naming conventions, and for help on formatting the pages visit the manual of style. If you need help look at Help and The FAQ, plus 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 Policy Library. Plus, don't forget to visit the Community Portal. And if you have any more questions after that, feel free to post them on My User talk Page. Additional Tips:

Here's some extra tips to help you get around in the 'pedia! Happy Wiki-ing. -- John Fader 18:43, 3 Mar 2005 (UTC)
 * If you made any edits before you got an account, you might be interested in assigning those to your username.
 * If you want to play around with your new Wiki skills the Sandbox is for you.
 * You can sign your name using three tildes, like &#126&#126&#126;. If you use four, you can add a datestamp too.
 * You may want to add yourself to the New User Log
 * If you ever think a page or image should be deleted, please list it at the votes for deletion page. There is also a votes for undeletion page if you want to retrieve something that you think should not have been deleted.

It's really a shame you've been here nearly a week and no-one has bothered to welcome you. And I'm rather embarassed to admit that I've been here for ages and just discovered the UK-grid-reference thing you've been adding to articles. Damn this is a big wiki. Welcome again. -- 14:32, 5 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Psych
Hello! I hope that you won't be offended, but I've changed your 'wikify' tag to a 'speedy delete'. The page seems to be an undergraduate's lecture notes for a course abbreviated as 'Psych'. Mel Etitis ( &Mu;&epsilon;&lambda; &Epsilon;&tau;&eta;&tau;&eta;&sigmaf; ) 23:20, 8 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Grid Refs
Delighted to see someone else adding Grid refs. -- RHaworth 05:12, 2005 Mar 9 (UTC)
 * I like to put them near the top of the article as in: Herne Hill railway station, Reedham, Lost, Clitterhouse (with four map l!nks) and Arnside (as edited by me). What do you think?
 * Please feel free to start using Template:GBvoss so it does not look like a private project of mine. (I put the old-maps links for Arnside down the bottom because of the extra chat involved.) And note the "gbmapping" link in Uxbridge Vine Street!

Big templates
Hi. Thanks for your message. I agree with you that large templates are indeed useful. I do not see that it is "progress" to replace one large, very useful template, with several categories. From what I understand, templates are supposed to aid navigation, and Template:British heritage railways does just that. I do not think that aesthetics is justification to delete a template. I have half a mind to recreate the template should it be deleted, as I bet half the people who voted never use/read/update the pages it links anyway! (Our Phellap 01:17, 10 Mar 2005 (UTC))
