Welcome to Wikipedia!

Dear OfficePuter: Welcome to Wikipedia, a free and open-content encyclopedia. I hope you enjoy contributing. To help get you settled in, I thought you might find the following pages useful:

• Wikipedia:Introduction
• Five Pillars of Wikipedia
• Frequently Asked Questions
  • How do you edit a page?
  • How do you revert to a previous version of a page?
  • What about copyrights?
• Community Portal

Don't worry too much about being perfect. Very few of us are! Just in case you are not perfect, click here to see how you can avoid making common mistakes.

If you are stuck, and looking for help, 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 talk (discussion) page, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. A third option is to ask a more experienced user such as an administrator.

One last bit of advice: please sign any discussion comment with four tildes (~~~~). The software will automatically convert this into your signature which can be altered in the "Preferences" tab at the top of the screen. I hope I have not overwhelmed you with information. If you need any help just let me know. Once again welcome to Wikipedia, and don't forget to tell us about yourself and be BOLD!   -- SatyrTN (talk | contribs) 15:33, 18 August 2007 (UTC)

CfD nomination of Category:Methodist artists

I have nominated Category:Methodist artists (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs) for deletion. Your opinions on the matter are welcome; please participate in the discussion by adding your comments at the discussion page. Thank you. After Midnight ⁰⁰⁰¹ 00:59, 30 August 2007 (UTC)

Latter Day Saint categories

Hi, I've noticed that you have changed some of the Latter Day Saint categories to move them out of being classified as "Christian". Latter Day Saints self-identify as Christians, and although some Christians do not view them as such, a consensus decision has been made in categorizing Latter Day Saint articles that they will be included as a branch of Christianity. Thanks! Ubi Terrarum 10:24, 5 September 2007 (UTC)

• thanks for this info. I will stop making those changes. OfficePuter 11:03, 5 September 2007 (UTC)

Recreation of deleted material

Hi Wayne

Please do not recreate articles or categories which have been deleted after a deletion discussion, such as you did with Category:Catholic primates not in communion with Rome, deleted after this CfD. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 12:46, 5 September 2007 (UTC)

• thanks for this pointers. I follow your advise. OfficePuter 12:49, 5 September 2007 (UTC)

Request reason:

I believe I am confused with someone else: wayne? Perhaps he/she is someone on another computer in this facility? I do not believe I do anything wrong. Sockpuppet? I simply did what wikipedia suggests: register. Now I am blocked? I believe this "blocked" is unjustified. Please provide relief. Much appreciation.

Decline reason:

Your editing pattern is remarkably similar to that of blocked user Pastorwayne (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · nuke contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log). Accordingly, the blocking admin's assumption that you are he is reasonable. — Sandstein 12:42, 7 September 2007 (UTC)

Help me understand

What is "editing pattern?" How is "remarkably similar?" Use of words? Common interests? I interest in Christian people. Biography? This other person has similar interest? Please help understanding. Much appreciation.
