Historic welcome message

[edit]
Hi, Philipwhiuk, Welcome to Wikipedia!
Hello, bonjour, salut, privyet, konichiwa, shalom, hola, salve, sala'am, bonjourno, and hi! I'm Sputnik. I noticed that you were new and/or have yet to receive any messages so I just thought I'd pop in to say "hello". We're glad to have you in our community! I hope you like this place — I sure do — and want to stay. Wikipedia can be a little intimidating at first, since it's so big but we won't bite so Be Bold and get what you know down in microchips! If you do make a mistake, that's fine, we'll assume good faith and just correct you: it'll take a few seconds maximum! I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Though we all make goofy mistakes, here is what Wikipedia is not. If you have any questions or concerns, don't hesitate to see the help pages or add a question to the village pump. The Community Portal can also be very useful. If you want to play around with your new Wiki skills the Sandbox is for you. Here are a few links to get you started:
And remember:
  • If you ever think a page or image should be deleted, please list it at the votes for deletion page. There is also a votes for undeletion page if you want to retrieve something that you think should not have been deleted.
  • If you're bored and want to find something to do, try the Random page button in the sidebar, or check out the Open Task message in the Community Portal.
  • P.S. I'm happy to help new users. Feel free to leave a message on my talk page if you need help with anything or simply wish to say hello. :)

Happy Wiki-ing!

No, of course not, I was merely doing RC patrol, and it was against one IP address. I'm not a regular at that article, maybe you can find someone who is at the talk page. --Pilotguy (roger that) 16:52, 6 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. Your contributions make Wikipedia better -- thanks for helping.

If you have feedback on how to make SuggestBot better, please tell me on SuggestBot's talk page. Thanks from ForteTuba, SuggestBot's caretaker.

Hi - a stub template or category which you created has been nominated for deletion or renaming at Wikipedia:Stub types for deletion. The stub type, which was not proposed at Wikipedia:WikiProject Stub sorting/Proposals, does not meet the standard requirements for a stub type, either through being incorrectly named, ambiguously scoped, or through failure to meet standards relating to the current stub hierarchy or likely size, as explained at Wikipedia:Stub. Please feel free to make any comments at WP:SFD regarding this stub type, and in future, please consider proposing new stub types first! Grutness...wha? 02:17, 24 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Acid Rain & Editting in General

[edit]

When you aim to make a series of edits, just edit the whole page and do it in one go if at all possible. By saving and then editing again, it means that patrolling people who are looking to clean-up mark-up etc can cause and edit conflict. Obviously we all miss stuff, but try to do everything in one go (use the whole article tag, rather than section edits to sort it out). Thanks for your help Philipwhiuk 16:57, 4 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Yes, I normally do, but on this occasion the markup was blasted and I missed it when I saved the page - I actually had to undo my contribution and do it again, hence the three edits to the article. Cheers!Pedro |  Chat  11:12, 5 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited CAPRI OS, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages SSL and SSH. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Wetherspoons, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Tim Martin (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

Clap for our Carers has been nominated for Did You Know

[edit]

Hello, Philipwhiuk. Clap for our Carers, an article you either created or to which you significantly contributed, has been nominated to appear on Wikipedia's Main Page as part of Did you knowDYK comment symbol. You can see the hook and the discussion here. You are welcome to participate! Thank you. EnterpriseyBot (talk!) 01:53, 23 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

DYK for Clap for Our Carers

[edit]

On 14 May 2020, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Clap for Our Carers, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that Britons are being urged to clap for their carers every Thursday evening during the country's COVID-19 pandemic? You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, Clap for Our Carers), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.
