W e l c o m e !
Hi there, , and welcome to Wikipedia! I'm a regular contributor here, and when I notice on the recent changes  log that a new editor has registered, I like to send them a welcome message - that's how I ended up on your talk page.

If you've never edited here before, there are a few useful links that you might want to look at, designed to help newcomers learn the ropes:
 * The five pillars of Wikipedia
 * How to edit a page
 * Help pages
 * Tutorial
 * How to write a great article
 * Manual of Style

Here are a few features of Wikipedia that I find particularly helpful:
 * If you leave a message on a talk page, you can sign it with four tildes (~&#126;), which will automatically produce your name and a date stamp when you save the page
 * The "Show preview" button allows you to look at what your post will look like before you save it - that way, you can proofread what you've written and not have to back and correct spelling mistakes, failed links, etc.
 * You can create a watchlist for yourself that will keep a record of any changes made to a page that interests you.

There are plenty of other features and facets of Wikipedia, many of which I probably haven't even discovered myself, so have fun looking around and finding them.

If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions , ask me on my  talk page , or place   on your talk page and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions.

Again, welcome! - Tapir Terrific, 04:07, 11 August 2006 (UTC)

Your edits to Bigfoot
You seem to be editing out cited references to Loren Coleman and Jerome Clark. If you have specific objections to those sources, please discuss them on Talk:Bigfoot. Deleting them from the article without explanation can be interpreted as vandalism. -- Jim Douglas (talk) (contribs)  06:21, 3 December 2006 (UTC)

Your edits to Thunderbird (cryptozoology) and John Keel
Ok, same issue here. I'm assuming you have a good reason for these edits, but you haven't explained your reasons for these deletions. Please explain your edits using the edit summary. Unexplained deletion of apparently legitimate content is interpreted as vandalism. -- Jim Douglas (talk) (contribs)  06:27, 3 December 2006 (UTC)

License tagging for Image:Anomalous crop circle figure.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Anomalous crop circle figure.jpg. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:
 * Image use policy
 * Image copyright tags

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Media copyright questions. 17:04, 31 December 2006 (UTC)

Mothman
I've removed your edits to Mothman on grounds of self-promotion. Writing about yourself and your own work is against Wikipedia guidelines, because of a) the possibility of bias and b)difficulty with proving verifiability. You can discuss the issue on the article's talk page. Totnesmartin 19:58, 17 January 2007 (UTC)
