Octothorn
Hello there Octothorn, welcome to the 'pedia! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. If you ever need editing help visit Wikipedia:How does one edit a page and experiment at Wikipedia:Sandbox. If you need pointers on how we title pages visit Wikipedia:Naming conventions. If you have any other questions about the project then check out Wikipedia:Help or add a question to the Village pump. BTW, I see you have been making some positive changes to Ayn Rand related articles. However we do have a convention around here to only place external links in wiki references or external link areas. See what I did to the Ayn Rand article for examples. Cheers! --maveric149
Hi there! I notice you've been putting some reference to King Henry II setting the currency standard in 1300 -- I just want to point out Henry II of England ruled 1154-1189. -- Arwel 17:14 May 4, 2003 (UTC)

I'm sorry for acting in a way that contributed to you feeling that your edits were censored. By and large your contributions have been great, especially on gold standard, gold, silver, inflation, and the United States dollar.
However, I kept on deleting Gold exchange standard because we already had an article on Gold standard. And the reasons behind my actions on the British Monetary Crisis are listed on the Articles for deletion page. I think that you should just review the NPOV policy. You seem to be writing solely from a monetarist perspective.
It's great to see someone working on the economics articles for a change. Keep up the good word, but remember NPOV. By the way, sorry for my belated response. 172 19:39, 16 Aug 2003 (UTC)
A check to the minor edit box signifies that only superficial differences exist between the current and previous version: typo corrections, formatting and presentational changes, rearranging of text without modifying content, et cetera. A minor edit is a version that the editor believes requires no review and could never be the subject of a dispute. - Samuel Erau 06:39, 3 November 2006 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image (Image:Silver dollar.png)
edit){kind=link}
Thanks for uploading Image:Silver dollar.png. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot 02:49, 14 May 2007 (UTC)
