Welcome, newcomer!
Here are some useful tips to ease you into the Wikipedia experience:
- First, take a look at the Wikipedia Tutorial, and perhaps dabble a bit in the test area.
- When you have some free time, take a look at the Manual of Style and Policies and Guidelines. They can come in very handy!
- Remember to use a neutral point of view!
- If you need any help, feel free to post a question at the Help Desk
- Explore, be bold in editing pages, and, most importantly, have fun!
Also, here are some odds and ends that I find useful from time to time:
- Wikipedia:Policy Library
- Wikipedia:Utilities
- Wikipedia:Cite your sources
- Wikipedia:Verifiability
- Wikipedia:Wikiquette
- Wikipedia:Civility
- Wikipedia:Conflict resolution
- Wikipedia:Brilliant prose
- Wikipedia:Pages needing attention
- Wikipedia:Peer review
- Wikipedia:Bad jokes and other deleted nonsense
- Wikipedia:Village pump
- Wikipedia:Boilerplate text
Feel free to ask me anything the links and talk pages don't answer. If I don't have the answer, I will try to point to the right place. You can most easily reach me by posting on my talk page.
You can sign your name on any page by typing 4 tildes, likes this: ~~~~.
Best of luck, and have fun! Ccson 16:29, 8 May 2006 (UTC)
do you need help with the User Kappa Alpha Psi box? Ccson 04:23, 20 May 2006 (UTC)
When you make a change to an article or someone user page you sign the change by entering 4 tildes (~), this key is to the left of the Number 1 key on your keyboard and you must use the uppercase (shift) to use it. Another way is Ccson, you're simply entering Erayman64, and when I click on this link, it doesn't take me to your user page. hope this helps Ccson 03:29, 22 May 2006 (UTC)

Kappa Alpha Psi
editI am sorry, but I don't belong to Kappa Alpha Psi or Alpha Phi Alpha. I have relatives and friends who belong to Kappa Alpha Psi and Alpha Phi Alpha. And, besides, I have not stated that I am a Kappa anywhere on my userpage. I just know the histories of both the organizations from talking to several family members and reading. I do believe that you and should consider to move NinjaNubian/MyKungfu to indefinate blocking. Thanks! Bearly541 05:28, 20 September 2006 (UTC)
Reporting someone as a sockpuppet isn't a personal attack. Accusing someone of harassment is. Mykungfu 22:27, 21 September 2006 (UTC)
Vandal
editYou may want to consider having your page at least semi-protected. Our friend the vandal is bent on editing the KAΨ page to suit claims he makes on other pages. At least keep an eye on your page, or risk people viewing your page with not only non-approved "history" but massive grammatical errors to boot. -Robotam 20:18, 21 September 2006 (UTC)
Feel free to take a look at the Sigma Pi Phi, which was created by MyKungfu and is highly referenced. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sigma_Pi_Phi Robotam on the talk page even disputes "dispute of whether Sigma is a fraternity, and the claim that they ever had undergraduate chapters. Thanks!-Robotam 12:42, 20 September 2006 (UTC)
" The official homepage of the fraternity states that it is a fraternity. http://www.sigma-pi-phi.net/ . Placing meaningless arguments and stating that it is a NPOV upon it.
Kappa Alpha Psi argument that he based on "First incorporated Black fraternity" The reference provided was "Records indicate that Kappa Alpha Nu became the first undergraduate college fraternity to be incorporated by blacks as a national body. " This is the reference from the Mid Western Kappa Alpha Psi Chapters http://www.kapsimwp.com/News/MW0402/MW0402.html . Ccson placed a dubious assertion on the page"Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity is the first undergraduate black fraternity to have been incorporated as a national body [2].(dubious assertion—see talk page) " So I ask, where is the vandalism? what isn't being discussed? what is non approved history? These aren't random references but strong organizational references. 64.131.205.160 22:22, 21 September 2006 (UTC)
Why are you talking about yourself in third person ("which was created by MyKungfu")?-Robotam 13:23, 25 September 2006 (UTC)
Fraternities and sororities
editThere is an article on fraternities and sororities and it has a section regarding pledging one of the NPHC organization. The info is incorrect and I'm not sure where they obtained this info. can you reveiw the text at Joining a black fraternity; then go to the talk page and provide your knowledge whether this is how NPHC member conduct pledge programs?

Vandals Again
editVandal is back on the KAΨ site, but you should probably handle it--pretty bad with the mispelling.-Robotam 13:59, 13 December 2006 (UTC)
Notable Alphas
editThe article List of Alpha Phi Alpha brothers has been nominated a Featured lists. Please see List of Alpha Phi Alpha brothers to provide comments and/or Support of the nomination.--Ccson 15:47, 30 July 2007 (UTC)
