User talk:Tinylee

Welcome, Tinylee!

I'm Riana, and I noticed that you're new, so I thought I'd drop you a note. We do have a lot of users, and are currently working on 6,866,440 articles, so things can be a little intimidating... but don't worry! We love to help out, and we'll try our best to make your stay here as comfortable as possible.
Here are a few links I found useful when I first arrived here:-

Be Bold!
Don't let grumpy users scare you off
Meet other new users
Policies, guidelines, and rules
How to create a page, edit a page and write a great article
A handy tutorial, and a picture tutorial

You should sign your name on talk pages, discussions and votes by typing ~~~~; our software automatically converts it to your username and the date. Also, if you don't want to jump right into editing articles right now, why not check out the sandbox? Feel free to make test edits there.

I know it's a lot of information, but there are two more things I recommend you take note of while editing Wikipedia - cite references wherever possible, and avoid allowing personal biases interfere with your editing.

I hope you enjoy editing and being a Wikipedian - I definitely do. Although we all make mistakes, please keep in mind what Wikipedia is not. If you have any questions or problems, leave me a message on my talk page, and I'll try my best to help. Otherwise, please come to the New contributors' help page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type {{helpme}} on your user page, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions.

We hope you stick around, and make sure you enjoy yourself! Cheers, – Riana ⁂ 16:48, 21 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Regarding your post on WP:ANI

Hi Tinylee! Regarding your post on ANI - you only violate the three revert rule if you're reverting someone else's edits, and only if they are not vandalism. You were editing an article, and haven't reverted anything - this is perfectly OK. Welcome to Wikipedia, and if you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask on my talk page. Cheers, – Riana ⁂ 16:48, 21 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hi again. Another user has requested your article be deleted, because they do not believe it meets the criteria for inclusion. You are welcome to contribute to the debate, which is here. There is no point removing the notice from the article, because the debate will continue regardless. The discussion will run for 5 days, and at the end of it, an administrator will determine whether the article should be kept or deleted. If the article is deleted, please don't be disheartened - a lot of people's first articles get deleted, because they don't realise that Wikipedia can be fussy about what is included in our content. For an idea of what is generally acceptable, Wikipedia:Notability is a good guideline.

I have to go to bed now, but if you have any more questions, please do get back to me, and I'll answer them as soon as possible.

Cheers, – Riana ⁂ 17:04, 21 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Lee Groombridge

Welcome to Wikipedia. It would be appreciated if you would not remove Articles for deletion notices from articles, or remove other people's comments in Articles for deletion debates, as you did with Lee Groombridge. Otherwise, it may be difficult to create consensus. If you oppose the deletion of an article, please comment at the respective page instead. Thank you. --Onorem Dil 17:00, 21 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
