Again, welcome!  Also, it is recommended that you use the preview button before you save; this helps you find any errors you have made, and prevents clogging up recent changes and the page history.

Response

Hi Gruffle Gaw, this is in response to the questions you posted on my talk page. Looking at your user page, it appears you've done well in figuring out how to link articles. Manually linking the articles you've created seems to be the best approach. There is an automated "my contributions" link at the top of the screen, in which you can see all of your contributions. Other editors can view this by clicking on "User contributions" in the toolbox on the lower left of the screen. However, this is not especially useful to keep track of a small number of articles, since the contributions list fills up rather quickly. For user boxes, you can browse the available boxes at Wikipedia:Userboxes. I hope this information is helpful. If I may be of further assistance, please do not hesitate to ask. Again, welcome!

Hi, sorry for not getting back to you sooner. I'm on vacation and away from my 'puter right now. I'm not aware of any way of creating automatic links. I think most people link manually. You may want to try Wikipedia:New contributors' help page or Wikipedia:Questions. These are places where you can post questions about using Wikipedia and hope to get answers. Feel free to ask me other questions, too. Best of luck, and welcome to Wikipedia. Ground Zero | t 16:57, 20 September 2006 (UTC)

Spam in Consumer Action Group

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Consumer Action Group, by Legalbeagles (talk · contribs), another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Consumer Action Group is blatant advertising for a company, product, group, service or person that would require a substantial rewrite in order to become an encyclopedia article.

To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Consumer Action Group, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to leave a message on the bot operator's talk page if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself. --Android Mouse Bot 2 17:09, 14 July 2007 (UTC)

ArbCom elections are now open!

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
