User talk:Thedoubtfire

Hello! Welcome to Wikipedia and thanks for your contributions. Unfortunately the edits you recently made to St Mark's Basilica have been reverted as there were a couple of minor problems with them. I hope you don't mind me expanding on these a little to illustrate a bit more about how Wikipedia works:


 * Firstly, we don't tend to link dates in articles as these provide little value to the reader and the content of the year article is generally not relevant to the topic at hand. For more information on this have a look at this page on year linking.
 * Secondly there are very strict rules about adding images that have copyright issues. The file you added to the article has been deleted as it did not have an appropriate license or fair use rationale. There is lots of information about using images on Wikipedia. This page on tagging might be a good place to start!

Hopefully I haven't completely put you off! There is a lot to learn but the best way is to try things out and learn what works and what doesn't. You might find some of the following links helpful:


 * The five pillars of Wikipedia
 * How to edit a page
 * Help pages
 * Tutorial
 * How to write a great article
 * Manual of Style

I hope you continue to edit here and if you have any questions please don't hesitate to leave a message at my talk page. Thanks. Nick Ottery (talk) 09:06, 20 January 2010 (UTC)
