Welcome!
editWelcome to Wikipedia, ConservapediaUndergroundResistor! I am The ed17 and have been editing Wikipedia for quite some time. I just wanted to say hi and welcome you to Wikipedia! If you have any questions, feel free to leave me a message on my talk page or by typing {{helpme}} at the bottom of this page. I love to help new users, so don't be afraid to leave a message! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are some pages that you might find helpful:
- Introduction
- The five pillars of Wikipedia
- How to edit a page
- Help pages
- How to write a great article
- Manual of Style
I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Oh yeah, I almost forgot, when you post on talk pages you should sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); that should automatically produce your username and the date after your post. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or place {{helpme}} on your talk page and ask your question there. Again, welcome!

- Thanks! Especially for the cookies. Might be hard to get used to this place, I'm used to SPOV. But I think I can adapt quite well. --ConservapediaUndergroundResistor (talk) 21:59, 3 March 2009 (UTC)
Friendly suggestion in regards to your signature in respect to Wikipedia guidelines
editI'd like to draw your attention to WP:SIG#Customizing_your_signature. In its current state, your signature violates the following rules:
- WP:SIG#Appearance and color: Big fonts are not allowed here (fortunately).
- WP:SIG#Length: The code is too long, three lines on my monitor. Though there's no hard limit (except the 255 character limit enforced by the software), people are going to be annoyed.
- WP:SIG#Internal links: It does not contain an internal link to your userpage, talk page or contributions. Your signature must contain a link to at least one of these.
- WP:SIG#External links: You may not put external links into your sig.
Please change it so that it conforms to the guidelines. Thank you.
In addition, the external links don't work because you inserted a pipe (I). -- Nx/talk 17:35, 5 March 2009 (UTC)
For every category you create, you should specify parent categories to which it belongs. You can do this by listing the parents near the bottom of the page, each enclosed in double brackets like so:
[[Category:Wikipedians by website]] [[Category:Hypothetical second category]]
I am a human being, not a bot, so you can contact me if you have questions about this. Best regards, --Stepheng3 (talk) 17:49, 20 March 2009 (UTC)

editHello, and welcome to Wikipedia. I noticed that your username, ConservapediaUndergroundResistor, may not meet Wikipedia's username policy because Attacks Conservapedia.. If you believe that your username does not violate our policy, please leave a note here explaining why. As an alternative, you may file for a change of username, or you may simply create a new account and use that for editing. Thank you. NativeForeigner Talk/Contribs/Vote! 01:41, 22 March 2010 (UTC)
Your username is the only reason for this block. You are welcome to choose a new username (see below).
A username should not be promotional, related to a "real-world" group or organization, misleading, offensive, or disruptive. Also, usernames may not end in the word "bot" unless the account is an approved bot account.You are encouraged to choose a new account name that meets our policy guidelines. Alternatively, if you have already made edits and you wish to keep your existing contributions under a new name, then you may request a change in username by:
- Adding
{{unblock-un|your new username here}}
on your user talk page. You should be able to do this even though you are blocked, as you can usually still edit your own talk page. If not, you may wish to contact the blocking administrator by clicking on "E-mail this user" on their talk page. - At an administrator's discretion, you may be unblocked for 24 hours to file a request.
- Please note that you may only request a name that is not already in use, so please check here for a listing of already taken names. The account is created upon acceptance, thus do not try to create the new account before making the request for a name change. For more information, please see Wikipedia:Changing username.
- Adding
{{unblock|Your reason here}}
, but you should read our guide to appealing blocks first. -- Cirt (talk) 11:29, 11 September 2010 (UTC)
