User talk:Rsmelt

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions.

You might find these pages useful:


 * How to edit a page


 * How to write a great article


 * Article naming conventions


 * Wikipedia's Manual of Style

You can always experiment in the sandbox.

If you like, you can introduce yourself at the new user log, or write something about yourself on your user page.

One more thing: if you leave a note on any kind of discussion page it's always helpful to sign your post with four tildes ( ~ ), which is automatically converted to your username and the date and time. Don't do this in articles themselves though as they are not 'owned' by any particular contributor.

If you have any questions, see help, leave a question at the help desk, or feel free to drop me a line on my talk page.

Thanks again and happy editing!

Ah, thanks for letting me know. I did have some of the date specifier messed up so wasn't quite sure.--Paraphelion 11:14, 17 July 2006 (UTC)

How to write a letter in Icelandic
Fyrirgefðu for intruding, but I was wondering if you, as one of the most experienced Icelandic speakers on the English Wikipedia, know how to start a letter in Icelandic? I know that Icelanders aren’t big on formality, but as it’s an email to an unknown person, is a form of ‘sir or madam’ used? The email itself will be in English because my Icelandic is minimal – although eg er að læra íslensku. I thought it would be nice to at least start with the traditional phrase and then explain that I don't have enough Icelandic to converse, and that I'd like to apologise for this and write in English (or French, I suppose, but English is the more likely language.

Notification: changes to "Mark my edits as minor by default" preference
Hello there. This is an automated message to tell you about the gradual phasing out of the preference entitled "Mark all edits minor by default", which you currently have (or very recently had) enabled.

On 13 March 2011, this preference was hidden from the user preferences screen as part of efforts to prevent its accidental misuse (consensus discussion). This had the effect of locking users in to their existing preference, which, in your case, was. To complete the process, your preference will automatically be changed to  in the next few days. This does not require any intervention on your part and you will still be able to manually mark your edits as being 'minor'. The only thing that's changed is that you will no longer have them marked as minor by default.

For established users such as yourself there is a workaround available involving custom JavaScript. If you are familiar with the contents of WP:MINOR, and believe that it is still beneficial to the encyclopedia to have all your edits marked as such by default, then this discussion will give you the details you need to continue with this functionality indefinitely. If you have any problems, feel free to drop me a note.

Thank you for your understanding and happy editing :) Editing on behalf of User:Jarry1250, LivingBot (talk) 21:59, 14 March 2011 (UTC)
