USER TALK:

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia! Hope you like it here, and stick around.

Here are some tips to help you get started:

• To sign your posts (on talk pages, for example) use the '~' symbol. To insert just your name, type ~~~ (3 tildes), or, to insert your name and timestamp, use ~~~~ (4 tildes).
• Try the Tutorial, and feel free to experiment in the test area.
• If you need help, post a question at the Help Desk
• Eventually, you might want to read the Manual of Style and Policies and Guidelines.
• Remember Wikipedia:Neutral point of view
• Explore, be bold in editing pages, and, most importantly, have fun!

Good luck!

Hi, noticed your edits. Welcome to Wikipeida. In general, it is not necessary to link to every possible word, especially to minor ones like height, etc.. Moreover, it's generally policy to link only once in an article to a topic. This avoids having too many too many repeated links in one article. Best wishes, -- Decumanus 21:38, 2004 Nov 18 (UTC)

Another "hi." Also, please don't post information about personal projects like "MonkeyMoose." It might help if you snuck a look at Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not. Welcome! - Lucky 6.9 21:45, 18 Nov 2004 (UTC)

Here is the content you created for Stephen Austin which has been deleted and redirected to Stephen F. Austin:

The son of a Missouri mine owner who, after his fathers death in 1821, helped establish an American Colony in Texas. Stephen Austin traveled to Mexico City to persuade the new Mexican government to allow him to start a colony. It took him almost a year to get permission. The Mexican government would only allow it if the settlers became Mexican citizens and members of the Roman Catholic Church. Between 1821 and 1827, Austin attracted 297 families to his new settlement. The original Texas settler families are known as “The Old Three-Hundred.” He demanded evidence that each family was moral, would work hard, and not drink. The success of Austin’s colony attracted more settlers and land speculators to Texas.

You may want to include some of this material in Stephen F. Austin. As others have said, you should not include so many links because it makes the article too cluttered.

Followup:

• I noticed that you added the extra Stephen Austin information as a new section. If you feel up to it, you might want to weave the extra information into the main body of the article. However, I suppose others can do that if you're still getting a feel for editing articles.
• I have learned a lot from Wikipedia by checking on what other people did to my edits; I increased my skills much faster this way. You might want to check back on the edits you did; you can do this by clicking on "My contributions" and then looking at the "Page history" of various articles that you had worked on.

Hello again. It seems that you have a misunderstanding of the Wikipedia edit process. It is not generally appropriate to write your own summary of the article and then to tack it onto the end. Much of your material is already covered in the article and has to be removed. What is left over has to be woven in. Articles should form a single coherent flow. The kind of edits you are making are leaving lots of work for other people to do, cleaning up after you. Please bear this in mind in your contributions.

Also, your contributions are "overwikified". To restate: you shouldn't try to wikify everything, but only things that are meaningful. A term needs only to be wikified once, not every time it appears. There are many people who would be willing to help you learn the right way to edit articles, if you desire. It seems like you have a high desire to contribute. It would serve you well to learn how things are done here, as it will keep you from antagonizing a lot of other contributors. Best wishes. -- Decumanus 21:41, 2004 Nov 19 (UTC)

Don't spam articles with links to your personal site. Postdlf 20:34, 21 Nov 2004 (UTC)

To repeat what Postdlf wrote a couple of weeks ago - please don't spam articles with your personal website. The articles on your site have less, not more, information, and so don't help the reader obtain any extra information. -Willmcw 23:00, 10 Dec 2004 (UTC)

Please stop adding nonsense to Wikipedia. It is considered vandalism. If you would like to experiment, use the sandbox. Thank you. aec 23:13, 10 Dec 2004 (UTC)

I changed two articles that you created into redirects. American romanticism now points to Romanticism, where there is a general desciption that inlcudes American topics, as well as a list of American romanticists. If you would like to add more, that is the place to do it. Also, Free public education now points to Public education. Finally, I've marked your article Push pull factors for immigrants for discussion pending possible deletion. It duplicates material found in other articles. As a general suggestion, look around to see if there is already articles covering your topics of interest before creating new ones. That'll save some work for everyone. -Willmcw 03:10, 11 Dec 2004 (UTC)

Please stop adding links to your own sites to Wikipedia. It is considered spamming. --jpgordon^∇∆∇∆ 16:51, 15 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I'm working on a study of political motivations and how they effect editing. I'd like to ask you to take a survey. The survey should take 5 minutes. Your survey responses will be kept private. Our project is documented at https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Research:Wikipedia_%2B_Politics.

Survey Link: http://uchicago.co1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_eXOHLbXwbpfYC1f?Q_DL=e3DsAymc9y4ljrD_eXOHLbXwbpfYC1f_MLRP_025iM4geWoQqTQN&Q_CHL=gl

I am asking you to participate in this study because you are a frequent editor of pages on Wikipedia that are of political interest. We would like to learn about your experiences in dealing with editors of different political orientations.

Sincere thanks for your help! Porteclefs (talk) 15:55, 16 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
