Welcome to Wikipedia!

Hello, Cstaffa, and welcome to Wikipedia! I hope that you enjoy editing here and continue to do so.
I suggest reviewing the following fundamental links:

If you need help, there are several things you can do:

If you want to mess around with Wikipedia, I invite you to do so in my own personal sandbox (just follow the simple rules!) or in the Wikipedia sandbox. The most important thing I can tell a newcomer is to sign your posts! Just type four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name and the date.

Happy editing! -- ßottesiηi (talk) 02:31, 21 December 2006 (UTC)Reply

You had edited a page that happened to be on my watchlist. I saw that you were a new user with positive contributions, so I welcomed you, as is Wikipedia practice. If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to contact me again. -- ßottesiηi (talk) 16:49, 22 December 2006 (UTC)Reply

The World Without Us. Thanks for your comments. As I was editing someone else also edited. My change was aimed at correcting errors introduced by a vandal. I went back to the source for the quote. My edit was not related to the quotation marks. Ozdaren (talk) 11:42, 15 June 2008 (UTC)Reply

To our newest Rollbacker

edit
 

I have just granted you rollback rights because I believe you to be trustworthy, and because you have a history of reverting vandalism and have given in the past or are trusted in the future to give appropriate warnings. Please have a read over WP:ROLLBACK and remember that rollback is only for use against obvious vandalism. Please use it that way (it can be taken away by any admin at a moment's notice). You may want to consider adding {{Rollback}} and {{User rollback}} to your userpage. Any questions, please drop me a line. Best of luck and thanks for volunteering!

You're welcome to it. I have a job now and don't have the time anymore. Cstaffa (talk) 18:17, 5 January 2013 (UTC)Reply
