Welcome

Welcome to Wikipedia , I hope you will like it here and decide to stay.

You may want to take a look at the welcome page, tutorial, and stylebook, avoiding common mistakes and Wikipedia is not pages.

Here are some links I've found useful:

• Editing, policy, conduct, and structure tutorial
• Picture tutorial
• How to write a great article
• Wikipedia:Manual of Style
• The Five Pillars of Wikipedia
• Wikipedia:Merge
• New user log
• Be Bold
• Don't let grumpy users scare you off
• Wikipedia:Wikiquette
• Wikipedia:Contributing to Wikipedia
• Wikipedia:User page
• How to upload files
• Wikipedia:Image copyright tags

Also: To sign comments on talk pages, simply type four tildes, like this: ~~~~. This will automatically add your username and the time after your comments. Signing with three tildes ~~~ will just sign your username.

I hope to see you around Wikipedia! If you have any questions, feel free to contact me on my talk page!

Midway airport picture

Hi, I nominated your Midway airport image for featured picture. A couple of people have said that they would consider supporting it if it were larger and if it had a good description in the caption. I was wondering whether you had a larger version of it that you might be able to upload, possibly in higher resolution. -- Adz 00:06, 13 December 2005 (UTC)

Orphaned fair use image (Image:Wsh logo.gif)

Thanks for uploading Image:Wsh logo.gif. 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 under fair use (see our fair use policy).

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 fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you.

New deal for page patrollers

Hi Sgiard,

In order to better control the quality of new pages, keep out the spam, and welcome the genuine newbies, the current system we introduced in 2011 is being updated and improved. The documentation and tutorials have also been revised and given a facelift. Most importantly a new user group New Page Reviewer has been created.

Under the new rule, you may find that you are temporarily unable to mark new pages as reviewed. However, this is nothing to worry about - most current experienced patrollers are being accorded the the new right without the need to apply, and if you have significant previous experience of patrolling new pages, we strongly encourage you to apply for the new right as soon as possible - we need all the help we can get, and we are now providing a dynamic, supportive environment for your work.

Find out more about this exiting new user right now at New Page Reviewers and be sure to read the new tutorial before applying. MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 04:29, 13 November 2016 (UTC)
