- Cool then!
Re: is this vandalism?
The edit appears to be a strong form of a test, but if it continued then yes, it would definitely be considered vandalism. Thanks for reverting it! Cheers!
UN
OK, thanks! I don't think there's a need to tell me if you do obvious vandalism reverts, but be sure to
Doing well
You're doing well, keep it up :).
- As a reply to your comment about WikiProject Awareness, I'd say the best thing to do would be to tell as many people as possible, especially your friends, family, and relatives. Try to see if you can get them to edit a page :). Yuser31415 (Editor review two!)22:51, 24 January 2007 (UTC)

User page template?
Hi, I'm just wondering: did you use a template for your user page (doesn't look like it though)? If so, what is it? I'd like to make my userpage somewhat less sloppy and somewhat more functional/usable. Or, did you "borrow" it from someone else xD? Thanks. --Havocrazy 04:08, 6 February 2007 (UTC)
- Actually, my userpage is just plain A.Ou06:45, 8 February 2007 (UTC)
- I see. Hm, perhaps I'll try to design my own userpage like that one day; thanks for the advice. I might borrow a few pieces of your code, if that's all right with you. And by the way, I have located another Troy editor on here: User:Azntrigboi777, but I don't know who he is yet. --Havocrazy 06:51, 8 February 2007 (UTC)

Re: Copyright
I'm new to WP, so I'm not sure if this is the correct page to edit. I hope I'm not defacing anything, or something like that. Anyway, the 2 pictures on Joseph_(artist) are MY photographs of HIS work. Did I license them incorrectly?
As per permission, I received verbal permission yesterday when I saw him in the subway. He was encouraging photos of himself and his work to be taken and distributed.

I'm very new at this, and while I primarily use Wikipedia for a place to start on topics that are mentioned that I know nothing about (and there are many) I also can contribute occasionally and I like to remove vandalism whenever I can.

Re: Removal of non-free images
I know that non-free images can be used in certain articles. Using a single or album cover to illustrate a living musician (which is the situation on the Jamelia article), however, is not appropriate under Wikipedia:Non-free content criteria. That a free-licensed alternative has not been located, uploaded and added to the article by a Wikipedia or Wikimedia Commons editor does not mean that such an alternative does not exist or could not be easily created; in the case of Jamelia, she is scheduled to make public appearances in the next few weeks. 80.0.72.76 20:14, 29 April 2007 (UTC)

Hi
Hi you recently sent me a message on my talkpage. How do you add a reference to a Wiki-page? Is there a page on Wikipedia explaining this?
- You can add a reference simply by typing the citation in under the "References" section. If you would prefer footnotes, Wikipedia:Footnotes provides technical help. For stylistic guidelines, see Wikipedia:Citing sources. +A.0u01:29, 5 May 2007 (UTC)
- I hope my response is helpful to you. You may also be interested in Wikipedia:Help desk or Wikipedia:New contributors' help page, where fellow Wikipedians are there to answer your questions. +A.0u 01:35, 5 May 2007 (UTC)

I have noticed that you have assessed Eutrophication article with GA and high importence. Under many others, this project does not assess the degree of importence to avoid arguments on which one is more important than others. Thanks for your effort though. OhanaUnited 06:00, 17 May 2007 (UTC)
