User talk:Timbertom

Your user page
Hey there, I noticed that you are using your user page as part of what appears to be some kind of online treasure hunt/puzzle thing. This isn't really what Wikipedia userpages are for. They are for communication between users as they edit the wiki. I'm not going to delete your page, but I suggest you use one of the many readily available free web spaces for activities like this and not an online encyclopedia. You can check out WP:USER for more information about user pages. Cheers. Dina (talk) 00:57, 21 July 2008 (UTC)

Hi Dina

Thanks so much for your quick reply regarding my first entry to Wikipedia. I appreciate your position regarding Wikipedia's policy on what content is deemed suitable for an encyclopedia.

I will rethink my online strategy and how to point kids in your direction via another means (as a kid my dad always pushed us to look up anything in his precious World Book encylcopedia collection - so now as a 21st century dad I'd like to push kids to use the online equivalent).

If you think the page is unsuitable then its perhaps better to follow your instincts so we don't open the door to every other person with the same idea. Do you delete the page od do I?

Regards

Marco
