User talk:Wonder al

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia! Hope you like it here, and stick around.

Here are some tips to help you get started:


 * To sign your posts (on talk pages, for example) use the '~' symbol. To insert just your name, type &#126;&#126;&#126; (3 tildes), or, to insert your name and timestamp, use &#126;&#126;&#126;&#126; (4 tildes).
 * Try the Tutorial, and feel free to experiment in the test area.
 * If you need help, post a question at the Help Desk
 * Follow the Simplified Ruleset
 * Eventually, you might want to read the Manual of Style and Policies and Guidelines.
 * Remember Neutral point of view
 * Explore, be bold in editing pages, and, most importantly, have fun!

Good luck!


 * That would be great! The cheesehead really has to be seen to be understood, I think. Best wishes, [[User:Meelar|Meelar (talk)]] 02:11, 2004 Sep 9 (UTC)

Sauk Prairie, Wisconsin
Hullo. I started an article a while ago on the Sauk Prairie "unification" concept. Anything you could add, keeping WP:NPOV in mind of course ;-), would be greatly appreciated. Cheers, Tom e rtalk  08:18, 11 May 2006 (UTC)

Mehri language
There is no evidence that the Mehri language or any other Modern South Arabian language was East Semitic or more closely related to Akkadian than to anything else. If you have evidence then post it. Otherwise please stop vandalizing the Mehri language article. I will continue reverting your unreferenced edits. Place your evidence on the Talk:Mehri language page and I will look at it.

Juda, Wisconsin
Juda is an unincorporated community in the town of Jefferson in Green County, Wisconsin which is next to Rock County, Wisconsin. Juda should not be added among the municipalities of Green County in that it is not incorporated.I have the DeLorme Wisconsin Atlas and Gazateer at home and this is very helpful.If Juda is to be added it should be under Unincorporated communities.

Notification: changes to "Mark my edits as minor by default" preference
Hello there. This is an automated message to tell you about the gradual phasing out of the preference entitled "Mark all edits minor by default", which you currently have (or very recently had) enabled.

On 13 March 2011, this preference was hidden from the user preferences screen as part of efforts to prevent its accidental misuse (consensus discussion). This had the effect of locking users in to their existing preference, which, in your case, was. To complete the process, your preference will automatically be changed to  in the next few days. This does not require any intervention on your part and you will still be able to manually mark your edits as being minor in the usual way.

For established users such as yourself there is a workaround available involving custom JavaScript. With the script in place, you can continue with this functionality indefinitely (its use is governed by WP:MINOR). If you have any problems, feel free to drop me a note.

Thank you for your understanding and happy editing :) Editing on behalf of User:Jarry1250, LivingBot (talk) 19:14, 15 March 2011 (UTC)

Please note that, per WP:BURDEN, it is incumbent on editors inserting information into an article to provide a reliable source for that information. It is not appropriate to add information with tags...if you are unaware of a reliable source for the information you would like to add, you may discuss it at the article's Talk page rather than inserting it into the article. Thank you for your understanding. Doniago (talk) 20:52, 2 December 2011 (UTC)

Oh, I am so sorry to see you are taking a break. Yes I feel for you. And yet: Thats what "they " want: paid editors, closed-minded editors and you know.

Tag at Susya
From Template:NPOV:
 * Drive-by tagging is strongly discouraged. The editor who adds the tag should discuss concerns on the talk page, pointing to specific issues that are actionable within the content policies. In the absence of such a discussion, or where it remains unclear what the NPOV violation is, the tag may be removed by any editor.

That is, if you want to add a tag you have to go to the talk page and explain precisely why the tag is appropriate. Please do that or else remove the tag. Zerotalk 05:03, 18 July 2015 (UTC)

Problem with your custom signature
You have a custom signature set in your account preferences. A change to Wikipedia's software has made your current custom signature incompatible with the software.

The problem: Your preferences are set to interpret your custom signature as wikitext. However, your current custom signature does not contain any wikitext.

The solutions: You can reset your signature to the default, or you can fix your signature.


 * Solution 1: Reset your signature to the default:
 * Find the signature section in the first tab of Special:Preferences.
 * Uncheck the box (☑︎→☐) that says "Treat the above as wiki markup."
 * Remove anything in the text box.  (It might already be empty.)
 * Click the blue "" button at the bottom of the page. (The red "" button will reset all of your preference settings, not just the signature.)
 * Solution 2: Fix your custom signature:
 * Find the signature section in the first tab of Special:Preferences.
 * Uncheck the box (☑︎→☐) that says "Treat the above as wiki markup."
 * Click the blue "" button at the bottom of the page.

More information about custom signatures is available at Signatures. If you have followed these instructions and still want help, please leave a message at Wikipedia talk:Signatures. Thank you. 18:03, 7 September 2020 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:San Giorgio di Piano-Stemma.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:San Giorgio di Piano-Stemma.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 02:38, 31 March 2023 (UTC)
