Welcome
- 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!

School article guidelines
You need to read WP:WikiProject Schools/Article guidelines. If you wish to discuss those guidelines, see Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Schools. Articles on schools are not aimed at parent's, that what official school websites are for, they are meant to be more like an article in an encyclopedia you'd find in a library, and should mainly be based on what other reliable sources say, not the school's site, where possible. I see you left a note on my talk page but it was removed as vandalism by another editor. Feel free to complain about me but I really don't think it would be helpful to you or the article as my edits followed the guidelines. Dougweller (talk) 06:21, 28 October 2011 (UTC)
Civility and ownership
Please be civil when dealing with other editors. Also, nobody owns either individual article or their contributions to those articles. When you edit any Wikipedia page you give permission for other editors to further edit what you have written, and you cannot tell other people to leave your contributions alone, as you did at User:Dougweller. If you are not willing to accept that other people may disagree with your editing and consequently change or undo your edits, then Wikipedia is probably not the place for you. (Also, to help you for the future, any comment to another user should be made on a talk page, in this case User talk:Dougweller, not a user page, such as User:Dougweller.)

Mistaken edit
When you accidentally nominated Hoagy Carmichael for speedy deletion, you could have simply edited the article to remove the speedy deletion tag. Someone else has removed it, so there is no harm done, but I thought it might help to let you know in case you make such mistakes again. JamesBWatson (talk) 11:12, 28 October 2011 (UTC)
Speedy deletion nomination of Devais Gjals Inspecciones
![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/1/15/Ambox_warning_pn.svg/48px-Ambox_warning_pn.svg.png)
If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on Devais Gjals Inspecciones requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. reddogsix (talk) 03:47, 13 November 2011 (UTC)

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute to Wikipedia, at least one of your recent edits, such as the one you made to Law FC, did not appear to be constructive and has been reverted or removed. Please use the sandbox for any test edits you would like to make, and read the welcome page to learn more about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. Thank you! -- ~ neko-chan :3 (talk) 19:20, 16 November 2011 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, articles should not be moved, as you did to Vox (website), without good reason. They need to have a name that is both accurate and intuitive. Wikipedia has some guidelines in place to help with this. Generally, a page should only be moved to a new title if the current name doesn't follow these guidelines. Also, if a page move is being discussed, consensus needs to be reached before anybody moves the page. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. – czar 21:12, 2 August 2015 (UTC)
- I also welcome you; noticed your message on Czar's talkpage. If you need any help with anything, feel free to leave me a note (or Czar -- I'll happily shove some work their way :-) ...for instant gratification, there are some options at WP:Q for various sorts of questions, many venues thereof will often have somebody responding within 24 hours, I particularly recommend the WP:TEAHOUSE for fast friendly response. I've not tried it, but I heard a good thing or two about WP:Co-op as well. Best, 75.108.94.227 (talk) 21:52, 15 August 2015 (UTC)
