Welcome Eeggman!

Now that you've joined Wikipedia, there are 48,223,725 registered users!
Hello, Eeggman. Welcome to Wikipedia and thank you for your contributions! I'm Quinto Simmaco, one of the other editors here, and I hope you decide to stay and help contribute to this amazing repository of knowledge.
Some pages of helpful information to get you started:
    Introduction to Wikipedia
    The five pillars of Wikipedia
    Editing tutorial
    How to edit a page
    Simplified Manual of Style
    The basics of Wikicode
    How to develop an article
    How to create an article
    Help pages
    What Wikipedia is not
Some common sense Dos and Don'ts:
    Do be bold
    Do assume good faith
    Do be civil
    Do keep cool!
    Do maintain a neutral point of view
    Don't spam
    Don't infringe copyright
    Don't edit where you have a conflict of interest
    Don't commit vandalism
    Don't get blocked
If you need further help, you can:
    Ask a question
or you can:
    Get help at the Teahouse
or even:
    Ask an experienced editor to "adopt" you

Alternatively, leave me a message at my talk page or type {{helpme}} here on your talk page, and someone will try to help.

There are many ways you can contribute to Wikipedia. Here are a few ideas:
    Fight vandalism
    Be a WikiFairy or a WikiGnome
    Help contribute to articles
           
    Perform maintenance tasks
    Become a member of a project that interests you
    Help design new templates

Remember to always sign your posts on talk pages. You can do this either by clicking on the   button on the edit toolbar or by typing four tildes (~~~~) at the end of your post. This will automatically insert your signature, a link to this (your talk) page, and a timestamp.

The best way to learn about something is to experience it. Explore, learn, contribute, and don't forget to have some fun!
To get some practice editing you can use a sandbox. You can create your own private sandbox for use any time. Perfect for working on bigger projects. Then for easy access in the future, you can put {{My sandbox}} on your user page. By the way, seeing as you haven't created a user page yet, simply click here to start it.

The

Hi Eeggman!! You're invited: learn how to edit Wikipedia in under an hour. Hope to see you there!

It was a pleasure meeting you and working on the draft with you. I'm quite sure it will be approved. Good luck in your editing future here, and never hesistate to ask a question on my talk page, or to visit us again at #wikipedia-en-help connect! Hopefully the links and tutorial are helpful. The more in-depth (and less silly) tutorial is on the left hand side of the welcome template, but the Wikipedia Adventure is helpful. The links on the left help to refine the article, and the Wikicode one has a "cheat sheet" to do markup in an article. The right hand side are for good practices. Hope I hear from you again! Again, congratulations on a job well done, and for letting me work with you. :) Quinto Simmaco (talk) 11:45, 25 March 2015 (UTC)Reply

A page you started (Fassbender (company)) has been reviewed!

edit

Thanks for creating Fassbender (company), Eeggman!

Wikipedia editor KTo288 just reviewed your page, and wrote this note for you:

Marked as a copyvio as it is copied word from word from the company website. If it is rewritten, the speedy can be contested. Needs better references then the company website.

To reply, leave a comment on KTo288's talk page.

Speedy deletion nomination of Fassbender (company)

edit
 

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Fassbender (company) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article or image appears to be a clear copyright infringement. This article or image appears to be a direct copy from http://fassbenderlondon.co/. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website or image but have permission from that owner, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission. You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.
