User talk:Sokel

Welcome!
Hi there! Welcome to Wikipedia! Even though you appear to be a newbie, I must say, from the quality of your contributions, you are editing like a pro, keep up the great work! I don't know if you know this already but just to let you know about the Someone in Control article. On December 19, 2005, the article looked like this:. Then an anonymous editor made these changes:. So I assume this is the version of the article you came across:. So you have done a great job in bringing it back to the way it should be. It might be a good idea to add some of the info that was on the older version of the article on to the new one, such as the cover image and the singles info.

I hope you like it here and stick around. If you want, you can drop us a note at New user log to introduce yourself.

A few tips before you start doing a lot of editing:


 * You might want to take a look at the welcome page. The Wikipedia tutorial also gives a lot of basic info that will help get you oriented on Wikipedia. If you have any other questions about the project then check out Help or Where to ask a question.


 * When you post something on a talk/discussion page, you can sign your name by using three tildes ( " ") for your username and four (" ~ ") for your username and a timestamp.


 * Remember to provide an edit summary when editing.


 * If you ever find yourself with nothing to do on Wikipedia, have a look at the Community Portal, you'll find that there's always something happening.

If you have any questions at all, or comments, don't hesitate to write to me on my talk page.

Happy editing and keep up the great work! - Akamad Merry Christmas to all! 00:41, 24 December 2005 (UTC)

WikiProject
Sokel, I noticed your stats edits (your edits keep appearing up on my watchlist), and I was wondering if you'd be interested in joining up with WikiProject Ice Hockey? Also if you feel like putting a little blurb for your user page (even if its just a sentence), that would be appreciated because you look like a solid ice hockey editor, and we have too few of those on Wikipedia.

 * Thank you very much, and its great to know that you like the good teams. There are some sinister users about who like the Ottawa Senators. Glad to see your not one of them. Croat Canuck 08:08, 6 January 2006 (UTC)

HockeyBio Article
Good Work on your bio stub articles! It seems you are helping me in my task to get stubs done on every current NHL player. There were three things you should keep an eye on that I picked up when looking at your stubs.
 * a) For Categories, it is Category:Mighty Ducks of Anaheim players and not the way you had it, that one got me too the first time i did it.
 * b) For the stub template you use (icehockeybio-stub) and not (icehockey-stub) for player stubs, that makes it more specific
 * c) Do not put in the OHL, WHL or QMJHL alumni category into hockey bio articles, it is enough to just have the teams. I made the mistake of doing that after I created those categories, and now I got a whole bunch of bio articles that I got to take those off of. The individual team alumni pages are good enough.

Keep up the good work, and if you have any questions regarding hockey articles feel free to leave a question on my talk page and I'll get back to you as soon as possible. Croat Canuck 06:15, 7 January 2006 (UTC)

Stubs
Sorry, to bother you again, but you're just going insane with the hockey stubs, I'm having the hardest time keeping up and putting them on my watchlist. Good Job! And your secret is out! You just copy and paste from page to page! It got kind of obvious when you started mentioning Mike Van Ryn in the Ryan Suter article, and that Dennis Wideman was born in Kitchener, British Columbia. That's okay though, I make those errors sometimes too, just double-check after you create the article or you might get nicknames like "No Preview" Sokel. That's all from me. Croat Canuck Go Leafs Go!

Unreferenced BLPs
Hello Sokel! Thank you for your contributions. I am a bot alerting you that 2 of the articles that you created  are tagged as Unreferenced Biographies of Living Persons. 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 these articles up to standards, it would greatly help us with the current Category:All_unreferenced_BLPs article backlog. Once the articles are adequately referenced, please remove the unreferencedBLP tag. Here is the list:
