User talk:Stainedglasscurtain

I see you haven't been properly welcomed, so let me take this opportunity to do so!
Hello and welcome to Wikipedia!

Here are some tips to help you get started:
 * If you haven't already, please add your name to the new user log to let others know a little about yourself.
 * Read the Tutorial, and feel free to experiment in the Sandbox.
 * Eventually, you might want to read the Manual of Style and Policies and Guidelines.
 * If you need help, post a question at the Help Desk or ask me on my talk page.
 * To sign your name on a talk page, please finish your comments with ~ (four tildes). The wiki will insert a link to your userpage and the timestamp.
 * Not every subject needs its own page. Sometimes it is wiser to deal with certain subjects together on one page. See Merge and Redirect for some background. You may want to review Avoiding common mistakes to get started quickly.
 * Explore, be bold in editing pages, and, most importantly, have fun!

Enjoy! If you need any help, please don't hesitate to contact me at User talk:TShilo12. :-)          - Tom e rtalk  12:40, 20 February 2006 (UTC)

Lake Needwood
Lake Needwood was in the national news today (dam issue), so I started the article. When I searched for it at Wikipedia, I found the link on your user page. My understanding is that there have been two evacuations in the past 10 years or so, do you know? NoSeptember 13:47, 28 June 2006 (UTC)

Your request for rollback
After reviewing your request for rollback, I have enabled rollback on your account. Keep in mind these things when going to use rollback: If you no longer want rollback, then contact me and I'll remove it. Also, for some information on how to use rollback, you can view this page. I'm sure you'll do great with rollback, just leave me a message if you run into troubles or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of rollback. Happy editing! Mifter (talk) 13:40, 14 June 2009 (UTC)
 * Getting rollback is no more momentous than installing Twinkle.
 * Rollback can be used to revert clear cases of vandalism only, and not good faith edits.
 * Rollback may be removed at any time.

Asian 10,000 Challenge invite
Hi. The WikiProject Asia/The 10,000 Challenge has recently started, based on the UK/Ireland The 10,000 Challenge and WikiProject Africa/The 10,000 Challenge. The idea is not to record every minor edit, but to create a momentum to motivate editors to produce good content improvements and creations and inspire people to work on more countries than they might otherwise work on. There's also the possibility of establishing smaller country or regional challenges for places like South East Asia, Japan/China or India etc, much like The 1000 Challenge (Nordic). For this to really work we need diversity and exciting content and editors from a broad range of countries regularly contributing. At some stage we hope to run some contests to benefit Asian content, a destubathon perhaps, aimed at reducing the stub count would be a good place to start, based on the current WikiProject Africa/The Africa Destubathon which has produced near 200 articles in just three days. If you would like to see this happening for Asia, and see potential in this attracting more interest and editors for the country/countries you work on please sign up and being contributing to the challenge! This is a way we can target every country of Asia, and steadily vastly improve the encyclopedia. We need numbers to make this work so consider signing up as a participant! Thank you. -- Ser Amantio di Nicolao Che dicono a Signa?Lo dicono a Signa. 03:03, 21 October 2016 (UTC)
