Welcome to Wikipedia, Ed Moise! I am JMS Old Al 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!
Wow! What an addition!
editI have bookmarked your bibliography that you appended to Laotian Civil War. I thought I had a pretty good grasp of the literature, but you have added so much more.
Many thanks.
Links
editHi, Ed. I'm sorry, but we don't get to link to our own websites on Wikipedia; I've had to remove all the links to added to your Clemson faculty pages. --jpgordon∇∆∇∆ 15:21, 25 April 2009 (UTC)
- I apologize if I was in violation of a rule, but I could not, and cannot, see a conflict of interest in my adding links to bibliography pages. I maintain those pages as a public service. They do not selectively list works that support my own points of view. They are simply reference works that I thought users of Wikipedia would find useful. Ed Moise (talk) 20:58, 25 April 2009 (UTC)
- You could make a better case for removing the bibliography link that I added to Westmoreland v. CBS than for most of the others. That bibliography, unlike most of mine, does have a discernible viewpoint; the user can tell that I tend to side with CBS against Westmoreland. But it has an enormous amount of material representing the Westmoreland side of the issue. The user who wants fast access to material representing Westmoreland's viewpoint can find much more of it by going through my bibliography than by any other equally quick and simple means that I can think of.
