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!Johann Wolfgang [ T ...C ]

Video Game Screens
edit- Videogame screenshots are usually the copyrighted property of the game distributer/developer, meaning that any gaming website (IGN, Gamespot, etc.) which uses screenshots is asserting fair use. It is, as far as I understand, acceptable to borrow these screenshots and upload them to Wikipedia, provided that you obey the rules stated on the image tag Template:game-screenshot. --Anetode 09:35, 23 October 2005 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading Image:Genji2.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this media yourself then there needs to be an argument why we have the right to use the media on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the media yourself then it needs to be specified where it was found, i.e., in most cases link to the website where it was taken from, and the terms of use for content from that page.
If the media also doesn't have a copyright tag then one should be added. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media qualifies as fair use, consider reading fair use, and then use a tag such as {{Non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair_use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.
If you have uploaded other media, consider checking that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, too. 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 unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. ReyBrujo 21:52, 23 April 2006 (UTC)
