User talk:Nskahill

Welcome!
 Hi, Nskahill, and Welcome  to Wikipedia!  Welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you enjoy the encyclopedia and want to stay. Before getting too in-depth, you may want to read about the simplified ruleset. There are thousands of ways to get help on Wikipedia, and I personally recommend the Boot_Camp, where you can even chat online with fellow Wikipedians willing to help! In addition, Wikipedia also has thousands of pages dedicated to the use of Wikipedia, for example, if you need help on how to title new articles check out the naming conventions, and for help on formatting the pages visit the manual of style. Also, feel free to post them on my user talk page - I'm happy to answer any questions you have.

Help
Remember, the links above are always good, but if you still need help try these:
 * Help - here you'll search for an article dedicated to what you need.
 * Village Pump - here you can post questions.
 * Reference Desk - also where you find articles
 * Tutorial - a nice tutorial for beginners
 * Policy Library - a overview of Wikipedia Policies
 * Wp:cheatsheet - A great look at the language.

Additional tips
Here are some extra tips to help you get around in Wikipedia:
 * If you want to play around with your new Wiki skills the Sandbox is for you.
 * You can sign your name using three tildes (~). If you use four, you can add a datestamp too. If your keyboard doesn't have tildes (or for whatever reason) you can also click the [[Image:Button sig2.png]] button on the bar above the editing section.
 * 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.
 * If you're still entirely confused, or would like to get a better grasp of your wikipedia skills, and you have an IRC client (or don't mind getting one), check out the Bootcamp. It's not what it sounds like, but it is fun and can help you with your editing skills.

Good luck. -- DanielFolsom T|C|U 17:32, 14 January 2007 (UTC)

Bio Pages
you have recently written may not meet Wikipedia's generally accepted criteria for inclusion of biographies. It has likely been marked for deletion. Don't worry, there are several other options:

With the above options your biography will be protected from being edited by others, unlike a Wikipedia article.
 * Create an entry for yourself on one of the many social networking websites.
 * Many ISPs allow you to create your own website, often at no extra charge.
 * You may create a wiki at EditThis.info or one of the other wiki farms.
 * If you are attempting to make an entry for genealogical purposes, you may find WikiTree.org a useful site (but please do not simply copy material to Wikitree unless you are the original author - their license terms are different from Wikipedia's).
 * If you are, or intend to become, a regular Wikipedia contributor, please use your user page (user:) to post biographical information about yourself.

Thanks and welcome to Wikipedia! Please feel free to delete this notice once the issue has been corrected. Philippe 21:38, 24 April 2007 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. We invite everyone to contribute constructively to our encyclopedia. Some of your recent edits have been considered unhelpful or unconstructive and have been reverted or removed. The article that you edited has notability guidelines for the addition of birthdays and deaths to the list. The guidelines can be found as comments in the list and they suggest that only names that have corresponding Wikipedia articles are eligible for the list. -- Mufka (user) (talk) (contribs) 13:34, 27 April 2007 (UTC)
