 * How to edit a page: Everything you ever really wanted to know about formatting and markup, but were afraid to ask.

 * What Wikipedia is not: ...and what shouldn't you write in it?
 * Sandbox: Here's the place to do editing tests without worrying about messing anything up.
 * Glossary: Words specific to Wikipedia and wiki culture (for example, the tendency to stick "wiki" in front of everything!) and frequently used abbreviations that you might encounter.
 * FAQ: Questions and answers about various topics, including technical aspects, copyright, and a general overview of the project.
 * Help desk: Got a question not answered in any of the help materials, or just can't find it (understandable, even for someone who's been around a while)? Ask it here!
 * Village pump: Want to see what's going on around Wikipedia? Here's where people are talking.
 * Community Portal: Just about anything else you as a Wikipedia editor might want to find is linked from here.

Finally, if you haven't already, feel free to sign your name to the New user log and add yourself to the various listings of Wikipedians! Also, remember to sign your name on Talk pages (but not articles) with "&#126;&#126;&#126;&#126;" to leave your signature and a timestamp. Thanks for your contributions so far, and happy editing!

Also, I noticed on the image of Milton Babbitt you uploaded that you didn't provide a source or a license tag. Images that aren't tagged with a source and license for over a week can be deleted; for more information, see the Image use policy or just ask me on my talk page. Hope this helps, and happy editing.

Fair use images
Hi Snorlax, and thanks for your contributions to Wikipedia! Since you're a relatively new user, you might not have come across Wikipedia's fair use policy yet. Item 9 says that fair use images should only be used in the article namespace. I'd appreciate it if you could remove Image:Snorlax.png from your user page, as it is a fair use image. Your user page is also being placed into some categories that are designed for articles only. Please note that some templates, such as pokerefs can place pages in categories. Feel free to ask if you have any questions. Thanks!  Pagra shtak  01:35, 3 March 2006 (UTC)

Image Tagging Image:IMG 3268.sized.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:IMG 3268.sized.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is therefore unclear. If you have not created this media yourself then you need to argue that we have the right to use the media on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the media yourself then you should also specify where you found it, i.e., in most cases link to the website where you got it, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the media also doesn't have a copyright tag then you must also add one. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then you can use GFDL-self to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media qualifies as fair use, please read fair use, and then use a tag such as or one of the other tags listed at Image copyright tags. See Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other media, please check that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, too. 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 any unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you.

See Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use. If you want the image to be deleted, tag it as db-unksource.

Images
Hello. I notice that you have uploaded several images to Wikipedia. Thanks for that. Unfortunately, Wikipedia cannot accept an image unless you clearly state both its source and what license you are releasing it under. To release an image you either have to own its copyright, or demonstrate that the copyright's owner has given permission for its release under the license you use. The comments of others above give you plenty of links to Wikipedia's image use and copyright policies. Thanks. Best regards. --RobertG &#9836; talk 10:40, 12 April 2006 (UTC)

Unreferenced BLPs
Hello Snorlax! Thank you for your contributions. I am a bot alerting you that 1 of the articles that you created  is tagged as an Unreferenced Biography of a Living Person. The biographies of living persons policy requires that all personal or potentially controversial information be sourced. In addition, to ensure verifiability, all biographies should be based on reliable sources. If you were to bring this article up to standards, it would greatly help us with the current Category:All_unreferenced_BLPs article backlog. Once the article is adequately referenced, please remove the unreferencedBLP tag. Here is the article:

Speedy deletion nomination of File:Orin and David.jpg


A tag has been placed on File:Orin and David.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F9 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the image appears to be a blatant copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted images or text borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If you think that the page was nominated in error, contest the nomination by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion" in the speedy deletion tag. Doing so will take you to the talk page where you can explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but do not hesitate to add information that is consistent with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Your account will be renamed
Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Snorlax. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Snorlax~enwiki that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name. If you think you might own all of the accounts with this name and this message is in error, please visit Special:MergeAccount to check and attach all of your accounts to prevent them from being renamed.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yours, Keegan Peterzell Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation 03:04, 20 March 2015 (UTC)

 This account has been renamed as part of single-user login finalisation. If you own this account you can |log in using your previous username and password for more information.
