Adoption

Hello, Hunterkb! I see that you have expressed an interest in being adopted by an experienced editor. I accept your request, being an experienced editor myself. Whether you want to learn about wiki markup, find something to do, or just talk to somebody, I'm the one you can talk to - just leave a message on my talk page. Good luck with Wikipedia! --Daniel Olsen 02:47, 29 November 2006 (UTC)

Re: Thanks

There are many ways to add references to an article (see Wikipedia:Citing_sources#How_to_cite_sources). The methed I prefer is footnotes, though if an article already uses mostly another format, you should probably follow the example of the other editors. For an example of some good sourcing I've done, see Lafayette hillside memorial. If you have any question, just leave me another message. Happy editing! --Daniel Olsen 02:07, 1 December 2006 (UTC)

Re: Vandalism Question

Vandalism does not fall under the 3 revert rule. "Reverting" just refers to restoring a page back to a previous version. To revert more than one edit, go to the history tab, and compare the newest revision with the most recent nonvandalized version. Next to the older edit, you should see an edit link, which will edit that reversion. Once you save (make sure to use an edit summary that says 'revert' or 'rv' and describes why you reverted), the page will be back to its previous state. Good luck, and happy editing! --Daniel Olsen 00:06, 21 December 2006 (UTC)

Re: Plagaraism

WP:C and WP:PD say "Works produced by civilian and military employees of the United States federal government in the scope of their employment are public domain by statute", so it seems like work of the CDC (a part of the United States Department of Health and Human Services, a part of the Federal government of the United States) should be public domain. You might want to leave a note on the talk page, however, so someone else won't suspect the same thing. Good luck, and happy editing! --Daniel Olsen 15:06, 21 December 2006 (UTC)
