Welcome and introduction
Hi, Shebaskr. This is NOT some automated message...it's from a real person by golly! Welcome to Wikipedia! I'm glad you've made an account! Thanks for joining; you're on your way to making some great contributions.

Because I've noticed you've just joined, I wanted to give you a few tips to get you started. If you have any questions, please talk to us. Any questions, nothing is too silly (we've heard them all). The tips below should help you to get started too. Best of luck! JoeSmack Talk 04:48, 10 October 2009 (UTC)

P.S. If you just feel like poking around, Help is a good place to start. :)

Stone Cold Steve Austin, and welcome to Wikipedia
Hello, Shebaskr. We do not strike out information on articles here. The strike-out feature is for talk pages only. After probably realizing that, you then decided to actually remove the information. But when you removed it, the information about Austin being charged with domestic abuse, you removed any mention of his marriage to Debra Marshall. His marriage and divorce to her should definitely be noted. Additionally, if he was charged with domestic abuse that should be mentioned as well and is perfectly allowed here at Wikipedia. The information on that does need better sources, though, and I will take care of that later. The only thing I can see that you removed from this article that is a reasonable removable are Debra's claims that he is a steroid user. You should take your concerns about all this to that article's talk page since you have been reverted twice on this matter now.

Since you are new to Wikipedia, at least under this screen name, I give you this list to help your editing here:


 * 1) What Wikipedia is not, which summarizes what belongs in Wikipedia and what does not;
 * 2) Neutral point of view, which describes Wikipedia's mandatory core approach to neutral, unbiased article-writing;
 * 3) No original research, which prohibits the use of Wikipedia to publish personal views and original research of editors and defines Wikipedia's role as an encyclopedia of existing recognized knowledge;
 * 4) Verifiability, which explains that it must be possible for readers to verify all content against credible external sources (following the guidance in the Risk disclaimer that is linked-to at the bottom of every article);
 * 5) Reliable sources, which explains what factors determine whether a source is acceptable;
 * 6) Citing sources, which describes the manner of citing sources so that readers can verify content for themselves; and
 * 7) Manual of Style, which offers a style guide—in general editors tend to acquire knowledge of appropriate writing styles and detailed formatting over time.

These are often abbreviated to WP:NOT, WP:NPOV, WP:NOR, WP:V, WP:RS, WP:CITE, and WP:MOS respectively. Also, you need to always sign your comments when "talking" on Wikipedia talk pages. To sign your comments, all you have to do is type four tildes beside them.

Take care. Flyer22 (talk) 22:20, 10 October 2009 (UTC)
