Please stop. If you continue to vandalize pages, as you did to John Oliver (comedian), you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. -- Ricky81682 (talk) 05:13, 21 April 2008 (UTC)

April 2008

Welcome, and thank you for your attempt to lighten up Wikipedia. However, this is an encyclopedia and the articles are intended to be serious, so please don't make joke edits, as you did to John Oliver (comedian). Readers looking for serious articles will not find them amusing. If you'd like to experiment with editing, try the sandbox, where you can write (almost) whatever you want.
