User talk:Oyster boy

Welcome to Wikipedia!
Hey there, Oyster boy, and welcome to our great encyclopedia, which currently has more than 1,891,084 articles! Even with this large number, all of your contributions are important (including the small ones), and I hope you like the place and decide to stay! Here's a few starting tips for you:


 * You might want to check out the welcome page.
 * Then you can have a look at our guidelines.
 * After that, you can see here for a cheatsheet on editing pages (for a bigger list, see here).

After reading all this (or even just glimpsing at it), I can understand that you might feel apprehensive about editing and contributing articles, for fear of making a mistake. But don't worry too much about mistakes; after all, you're new. Instead, everyone here encourages you to be bold! If you need help with anything, feel free to [ leave me a message], or you can put  on your talk page, and someone will show up shortly to give you a hand.

One last thing: when leaving a message on someone's talk page, don't forget to put four "tildes" (~) to automatically sign your name.

Happy Editing! -- P.B. Pilhet  17:43, 19 July 2007 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (Image:Catpeople5.jpg)
Thanks for uploading Image:Catpeople5.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot 13:56, 9 September 2007 (UTC)
