Welcome to Wikipedia. Although we invite everyone to contribute constructively to our encyclopedia, at least one of your recent edits, such as the one you made to Rufus Wainwright, was not constructive and has been reverted or removed. Please use the sandbox for any test edits you would like to make, and take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. -- moe.RON   Let's talk  04:11, 27 June 2007 (UTC)

Rufus Wainwright

 * 1) Hi! I'm sure you meant well, but please stop adding the word "gay" to the opening sentence of the Rufus Wainwright article. We don't need to say that he's gay in the opening sentence, as it is already discussed elsewhere in the article, and it is not uniquely significant to what he does. Just remember that articles about heterosexual people don't include the word "straight" in the opening sentence. Thanks! --DearPrudence 05:42, 27 June 2007 (UTC)
 * 2) Please do not delete content from articles on Wikipedia. Your edits do not appear to be constructive and have been reverted. If you would like to experiment, please use Sandbox for test edits.  -- K u k i ni  hablame aqui 20:40, 27 June 2007 (UTC)

User talk pages and user pages
Regarding user talk pages, it is preferred to not delete notices, but instead, to archive them. You will find how to do this here, under "When pages get too long." Your talk page is intended to serve as a place to discuss your contributions. It ends up being a sort of a history of the work you've done and the conflicts you've been in, or the praise you've received. It's alright to archive comments or warnings, but blanking your talk page is relatively less appropriate, as it is not actually yours but instead belongs to us all. Please read WP:USERPAGE and WP:TALK. When you desire to keep the "clutter" down on your user talk page, I suggest that you create archives for these messages. I would be happy to assist you in doing just that if you ask me to. You can see a sample of archives (mine) here. As for your user page, most users seem to use it as a place to describe themselves as people and/or editing entities. Many collect links to pages they are working on and/or have been working on. You user page is more "yours," in a way, than anywhere else on wikipedia, but is not intended to serve as a personal webpage either. Once again, read here to learn more about this. --  K u k i ni  hablame aqui 20:40, 27 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Blanking notices on your user talk page only draws more attention to your edits. Perhaps this is a good thing? I hope you choose to edit wikipedia in a constructive manner instead. -- K u k i ni  hablame aqui 00:23, 28 June 2007 (UTC)
