Hello and welcome to Wikipedia!
Here are some tips to help you get started:
- Try the Tutorial, and feel free to experiment in the test area.
- If you need help, post a question at the Help Desk
- Eventually, you might want to read the Manual of Style and Policies and Guidelines.
- Remember Wikipedia:Neutral point of view
- Explore, be bold in editing pages, and, most importantly, have fun!
Good luck!
P.S. One last helpful hint. To sign your posts like I did above (on talk pages, for example) use the '~' symbol. To insert just your name, type ~~~ (3 tildes), or, to insert your name and timestamp, use ~~~~ (4 tildes).
Avianca
editAvianca was founded in 1940 not 1919. If it was a simple rename of the company maybe but it wasn't a rename but a merger of SCADTA (which was founded in 1919) and SACO (founded in 1933), therefore creating a new company called Avianca in 1940 (which is the founded date). The claim Avianca makes on it's site is totally incorrect (reason why we don't use primary sources) but it's all ready sourced on the article as 1940. I don't know what it is with editors wanting to be 1919 but they need to let go of that. Bidgee (talk) 00:23, 5 February 2009 (UTC)
Deletion discussion about Apparent weight
editHello, Nicop (Usurp), and thanks for contributing to Wikipedia!
I wanted to let you know that some editors are discussing at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Apparent weight whether the article Apparent weight should be in Wikipedia. I encourage you to comment there if you think the article should be kept in the encyclopedia.
The deletion discussion doesn't mean you did something wrong. In fact, other editors may have useful suggestions on how you can continue editing and improving Apparent weight, which I encourage you to do. If you have any questions, feel free to ask at the Help Desk.
Thanks again for your contributions! Gerardw (talk) 20:53, 24 November 2011 (UTC)
