Welcome to Wikipedia
Hi, thanks for reporting that vandalism. In such cases, the easiest way is most often simply to fix the vandalism yourself by reverting it. If you notice that somebody is vandalising a lot of articles in a row, you can also warn him on his userpage and/or report him on WP:AIV. Fut.Perf. ☼ 23:41, 5 December 2006 (UTC)

Re User talk:Jimbo Wales
I'm not Jimbo, obviously, but Jimbo is quite busy so others try to answer queries for him when possible.

It's unlikely there'd be much demand for a printed manual about Wikipedia. Most people get along by reading the online pages, asking for help and most importantly learning by doing; plus our policies, guidelines, help pages et al are revised and updated so often that it would become outdated too quickly.

If there's something you don't understand about Wikipedia, the best thing to do is to just ask at the help desk, and we should be able to help. If you're not sure about doing something, don't be afraid to be bold and do it. --Sam Blanning(talk) 01:03, 7 December 2006 (UTC)
 * I have received your message in place for Wales. I only asked for this request because I'm not always in the Internet and tend to be working instead. The printed material would have been useful while I'm not wikiing. The only reason why a replied was to ask you if the printed guide would be possible. Thank you. Salmans801
 * Please reply on this page to keep the conversation in one place - click 'edit' at the right of the section title.
 * Good point about reading it offline - but frankly, you shouldn't really need to sit down with the rules and spend a long time reading them. It's just not that difficult working here, or at least, we try to make sure it isn't :-). Doing the Tutorial should give you enough of the basics to start editing, and for anything else you can either refer to the Help pages as needed, or ask. I've been here for a while and have never had to do anything more than that.
 * If it is possible to produce a manual I'm sure others, including Jimbo, will come here to disagree with me; but personally I don't think there would be enough demand to make it worthwhile. --Sam Blanning(talk) 01:23, 7 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Plus, it would kinda be an oxymoron: a print guide for an internet encyclopedia? Cbrown1023 01:49, 7 December 2006 (UTC)

Userpage
Hi there. A good way to start a userpage is to put userboxes on it, that tell other Wikipedians about yourself. Also, you might like to write about what you'd like to do here, or what you have done so far. If you need anything else, just ask me. -- Majo  rly  16:32, 11 December 2006 (UTC)
