We hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! By the way, you can sign your name on talk and vote pages using four tildes, like this: ~~~~. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. Again, welcome! KhalfaniKhaldun 02:52, 25 May 2009 (UTC)

Please stop adding inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to Twitter. It is considered spamming and Wikipedia is not a vehicle for advertising or promotion. Since Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, additions of links to Wikipedia will not alter search engine rankings. If you continue spamming, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Two other things: retweeting is simply tweeting what another twitter user has already posted and giving them credit; it has nothing to do with pay-per-click links... And you should try and avoid signing your edits on article pages. They should read like an encyclopedia article. =) KhalfaniKhaldun 02:51, 25 May 2009 (UTC)
