Welcome!

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. The following links will help you begin editing on Wikipedia:

• The five pillars of Wikipedia
• How to edit a page
• Editing tutorial
• Picture tutorial
• How to write a great article
• Naming conventions
• Manual of Style

Please bear these points in mind while editing Wikipedia

• Respect copyrights – do not copy and paste text or images directly from other websites.
• Maintain a neutral point of view – this is one of Wikipedia's core policies.
• Take particular care while adding biographical material about a living person to any Wikipedia page and follow Wikipedia's Biography of Living Persons policy. Particularly, controversial and negative statements should be referenced with multiple reliable sources.
• No edit warring or sock puppetry
• If you are testing, please use the Sandbox to do so.
• Do not add troublesome content to any article, such as: copyrighted text, libel, advertising or promotional messages, and text that is not related to an article's subject. Deliberately adding such content or otherwise editing articles maliciously is considered vandalism; doing so will result in your account or IP being blocked from editing.

The Wikipedia tutorial is a good place to start learning about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and discussion pages using four tildes, like this: ~~~~ (the software will replace them with your signature and the date). Again, welcome! - Managerarc ^talk 11:48, 16 April 2011 (UTC)

Laadla (film)

Welcome to Wikipedia. I have removed some of your recent additions to the article Laadla (film), specifically the plot summary which was directly copied from IMDb, which is a violation of WP:Copyvio. For a guideline on how to write a plot summary, please read Wikipedia:How to write a plot summary. Hope you understand the policies. Thank you.--- Managerarc ^talk 11:52, 16 April 2011 (UTC)

Please go through Wikipedia:Copyright violations. You cannot copy material from sources that are not public domain or compatibly licensed without the permission of the copyright holder. It would be better if you write the plot in your own words as is the case with other Wikipedia film articles. --- Managerarc ^talk 12:55, 16 April 2011 (UTC)

There is no restriction on editing. Anyone can edit and improve articles immediately for all readers. The stuff written in "{{}}" are known as templates. The following links might further help you.

• Wikipedia:User pages
• Wikipedia:Five pillars
• Wikipedia:Contributing to Wikipedia

For further queries, please use the Help Desk. --- Managerarc ^talk 14:04, 16 April 2011 (UTC)

Just a few points

I noticed you've been adding maintenance templates to several articles. First, thank you for your enthusiasm and desire to help with this project. However, there are a few points I think you should consider. Please note that a stub tag goes at the very bottom of an article, below the categories. It's also best to choose a specific stub (ie, {{US-scientist-stub}} rather than the generic {{stub}}), which I see you most often have done. I'm not sure why you added the wikify tag to The Way Things Work (TV Series), as the article was properly formatted and was appropriately linked to other articles. Finally, I noticed at Hinrich Braren you added an unreferenced tag, but the article is clearly referenced. Maybe slowing down a bit would help? Again thanks for helping and let me know if you have any questions. Regards, P. D. Cook ^{Talk to me!} 13:17, 11 May 2011 (UTC)

As to Hinrich Braren please note also that footnotes are generally not needed unless a fact seems rather questionable. So if you think that something specific needs a direct reference please mark the inline text by placing {{cn}} right after the disputed fact in the text part. See also WP:FOOT. Thank you.

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.
