User talk:Enforcer1
Welcome!
Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are a few good links for newcomers:
- How to edit a page
- Editing, policy, conduct, and structure tutorial
- Picture tutorial
- How to write a great article
- Naming conventions
- Manual of Style
- The Five Pillars of Wikipedia
- Merging, redirecting, and renaming pages
- If you're ready for the complete list of Wikipedia documentation, there's also Wikipedia:Topical index.
I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and vote pages using three tildes, like this: ~~~. Four tildes (~~~~) will produce your name and the current date. You should always sign talk pages, but not articles. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. Again, welcome! Ann Heneghan (talk) 23:46, 27 October 2005 (UTC)
Handling newbie tests / Wikipedia:Please do not bite the newcomers
There's boilerplate messages you can use to notify newbies not to play around in articles. They're all listed at Wikipedia:Template messages/User talk namespace. For most vandalism users start with {{test}} and work through {{test2}}, {{test3}}, and {{test4}}; these messages start out as friendly warnings and get more aggressive for if a user keeps behaving badly. (Many new to Wikipedia don't understand that their edits take effect immediately.) The templates are quick and easy to use, too. — Laura Scudder | Talk 03:44, 28 October 2005 (UTC)
