Welcome to Wikipedia!
Hello, welcome to Wikipedia!

I noticed nobody had said hi yet... Hi!

If you feel a change is needed, feel free to make it yourself! Wikipedia is a wiki, so anyone (yourself included) can edit any article by following the  link. Wikipedia convention is to be bold and not be afraid of making mistakes. If you're not sure how editing works, have a look at How to edit a page, or try out the Sandbox to test your editing skills.

You might like some of these links and tips:
 * some General guidance.
 * Tutorial and the Manual of Style.
 * Find out how to revert, move and merge pages.
 * Sign your posts on talk pages using four tildes (&#126;&#126;&#126;&#126;).
 * Add yourself to the New user log and a regional notice board
 * Ask questions at the Village pump or Help desk.
 * Use the Show preview button
 * Provide an Edit summary
 * Add the correct image copyright tag to any images you upload
 * Take a look at Consensus of standards
 * Create a User page

If, for some reason, you are unable to fix a problem yourself, feel free to ask someone else to do it. Wikipedia has a vibrant community of contributors who have a wide range of skills and specialties, and many of them would be glad to help. As well as the wiki community pages there are IRC Channels, where you are more than welcome to ask for assistance.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask me on my talk page. Thanks and happy editing, -- Alf melmac 09:27, 23 January 2006 (UTC)

Why do you consider GA irrelevant to NP-complete ?
Please explain why in your revert here you feel linking the NP-complete article to Genetic algorithm an irrelevant addition ? How does the reader find their way from NP-complete to the GA article ? As an example the Travelling salesman problem is a NP-complete problem which Genetic algorithms can offer promising solutions and if the reader goes via TSP then they'll discover the GA article but I placed the reference to GA in heuristic so that a visitor to NP-complete could naturally follow to Genetic algorithm without going via TSP. If the reader is able to discover a set of articles when working one way through Wikipedia then it is NOT irrelevant to provide a way for them to discover the same set of articles through the reverse path.

 * GA, simulated annealing, neural networks and so on are specific solution approaches for optimization, and they are examples of metaheuristic approaches: they are not heuristics for NP-complete problems. I have added a link to metaheuristics instead -- this should address your concern. --Ott2 20:54, 21 September 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for creating Wenfei Fan, Ott2!

Wikipedia editor Lstanley1979 just reviewed your page, and wrote this note for you:

"Hi - some third party sources would be useful in establishing the notability of this guy. At the moment your sources are mostly to directories or profiles, which verifies the information but doesn't totally establish notability. Some sourcing around the award would help this along."

To reply, leave a comment on Lstanley1979's talk page.
