==Welcome==
Hello, and [[Wikipedia:Welcome, newcomers|welcome]] to '''Wikipedia'''. There is a lot to learn, so here are some links to pages that will help you to find your way around, get to know the most important policies. When you need to ask a [[Wikipedia:Where to ask a question|question]] or seek assistance, you can visit pages such as the [[WP:HD|Help Desk]], [[WP:EAR|Editor Assistance]] or the [[WP:NCH|New Contributors' Help page]]. They all fulfill different rôles depending on what kind of help you need. If you would like direct access to an experienced editor, you can join the [[Wikipedia:Adopt-a-User|adopt-a-user]] project or just approach someone directly via their [[WP:TP|discussion page]]. Remember to [[Wikipedia:Sign your posts on talk pages|'''sign''']] whenever you leave a comment by using four tildes (<nowiki>~~~~</nowiki>) or [[Image:Signature icon.png]]. Whenever you edit a page, even if the edit is minor, you should include a descriptive [[Help:Edit summary|'''edit summary''']]. I really hope that you enjoy being a Wikipedian and find it a rewarding experience. - '''''[[User:Adrian M. H.|<font color="Gray">Adrian</font>]] [[User talk:Adrian M. H.|<font color="Gray">M.

==Help==
{{tnull|helpme}}
I came across this article [[David Henry Wilson]] whilst de-deadending things - it clearly needs sorting out. The subject himself has added a complete list of his works. I'm sure this isn't appropriate but I'm not sure what is the best thing to do about it. I know that the author's contact details definitely need removing (!!!) but I'm leaving the page as is for a little bit so whoever is kind enough to help me :-) can see the original page. Many thanks for any advice![[User:Sassf|Sassf]] ([[User talk:Sassf#top|talk]]) 23:02, 28 January 2008 (UTC)

:Hi there! Thanks for bringing this to our attention. In concern of that article, the best thing to do would be to put up some [[WP:CLEANUP]] tags on or improve it yourself; also, you may want to check up on [[WP:BIO|notability]] of the subject to see if an article is appropriate. Hope that helps, [[User:Master of Puppets|<font color="#7d7d7d">'''M'''aster '''o'''f '''P'''uppets</font>]] [[User talk:Master of Puppets|<span style="font-variant:Small-caps;><sub><font color="#7d7d7d">Call me MoP!<font size=4>☺</font></font></sub></span>]] 23:06, 28 January 2008 (UTC)

::Thanks. Just a couple of other questions if thats ok. I've noticed elsewhere subjects politely being told they shouldn't edit articles on themselves - do you think I should put something on his talk page? The subject is notable - he seems to have plenty of books on amazon so thats fine but re: him listing all his works on the page - do you think just pruning most of that out is the best thing to do? It just kind of looks like a cv otherwise... Sorry for all the questions, I don't normally tackle too many living people (on wiki, not RL ;-) and I feel a bit unsure about some of the best courses of action in the long run.[[User:Sassf|Sassf]] ([[User talk:Sassf#top|talk]]) 23:17, 28 January 2008 (UTC)

:::Tackling in real life is even more fun. <tt>:)</tt> You're right, subjects of articles should ideally avoid from editing their own articles, as that may present a [[WP:COI|conflict of interest]]; even Jimbo Wales has been caught trying to edit his own article to fit his point of view. Also, the plenty of books part is great but I'd say check if they're self-published and also how much they've sold. And it does look like a curriculum vitae at this point; his list of works should preferably be trimmed or reworked.
:::And don't worry about asking questions; if there's anything else you'd like to know, I'd love to help. Cheers, [[User:Master of Puppets|<font color="#7d7d7d">'''M'''aster '''o'''f '''P'''uppets</font>]] [[User talk:Master of Puppets|<span style="font-variant:Small-caps;><sub><font color="#7d7d7d">Call me MoP!<font size=4>☺</font></font></sub></span>]] 23:20, 28 January 2008 (UTC)

==Re:James Fox (singer)==
I noticed your conflict of interest flag on this article. I failed to get any response from the editor in question so I have gone ahead with a fair bit of tidying up and I have removed or re-worded much of the inappropriate content. Please check and let me know if you think this has been sufficient to merit the removal of the tag. [[User:Jud|Jud]] ([[User talk:Jud|talk]]) 18:53, 18 February 2008 (UTC)
*Thanks for looking at that so quickly. I had noticed a couple of days ago the fairly obvious COI and went back add the tag. I did see you'd only recently put a message on his page but seeing as I'd tagged the article I thought I better put it on his userpage too. I know what he'd written wasn't especially harmful but it read quite self promotionally and peacocky to me. I made a few more edits subsequent to your as there were a few terms that really were getting on my nerves a bit (frequent unsubstantiated use of 'popular' for instance). As for removing the tag its purely up to you but I think the article is a bit better now. Of course most of the info does come from the person with the apparent COI but at least most of it is referenced. Personally i think a few of the references are a bit dodgy (self-references to myspace and youtube) but I'm not really sure what can be done about that save tagging the article. Theres far too many external links too - if there's no tag for that I'm going to stick it on the talk page. Cheers! [[User:Sassf|Sassf]] ([[User talk:Sassf#top|talk]]) 23:54, 18 February 2008 (UTC)
:: Thanks, that's a great improvement. I agree that the COI tag can probably be removed now, but I will continue to keep an eye on it. [[Clare Teal]] is a notable artist in her own right, (her name was misspelled, hence the red link) so that information could be replaced. [[User:Jud|Jud]] ([[User talk:Jud|talk]]) 01:27, 19 February 2008 (UTC)
:::Looks like I spoke too soon - the original editor appears to have resurfaced with a new user name and is continuing to add personal information. Perhaps you'd better put it back! [[User:Jud|Jud]] ([[User talk:Jud|talk]]) 19:48, 19 February 2008 (UTC)
::::Yeah, looks like you're right. I've readded the tag and I've posted some bits from the policies on the talk page in the hope the editor in question will bother to read them. If it continues I might list it on the suspected sock puppets page. He's not really doing any massive harm, its just all a bit promotiony, but it is against the guidelines so needs to stop. :-) [[User:Sassf|Sassf]] ([[User talk:Sassf#top|talk]]) 20:49, 19 February 2008 (UTC)
[[User:Bouncer23|Bouncer23]] ([[User talk:Bouncer23|talk]]) 22:09, 19 February 2008 (UTC)Hi I am not the original editor.............I am trying to get the page back into line, and sound interesting at the same time. I have read a lot of the bio's of other artists, please bear with me I am doing a bit at a time and I may make a few mistakes along the way....sorry It's not meant to be promotional ( I can't/am not speaking for the original editor) just trying too incorporate some factual back ground and I am reading the links honestly.............The original editor has not responded to any messages because they are currently indisposed.[[User:Bouncer23|Bouncer23]] ([[User talk:Bouncer23|talk]]) 22:09, 19 February 2008 (UTC)

::Hi again, the people who run James Fox's website have been in touch and have assured me that it is highly unlikely that the subject of the article was making these edits himself, (he is currently performing to the troops in Afghanistan), so it was probably just an over-enthusiastic fan. They also asked me to pass on their thanks to you for improving it by removing the inappropriate material.[[User:Jud|Jud]] ([[User talk:Jud|talk]]) 01:47, 21 February 2008 (UTC)

== Regarding [[Wikipedia:Editor_assistance/Requests|Editor Assistance]] ==

After rereading my comments [[Wikipedia:Editor_assistance/Requests#Help_re_a_conflict_of_interest|here]], I don't think I explained myself clearly enough. What I meant was that although [[WP:AUTO|Auto]] ''is'' an important guideline, [[WP:IAR|Ignore all rules]] is, too. This states that one should, "''If a rule prevents you from improving or maintaining Wikipedia, ignore it.''" As long as [[User:Bouncer23|Bouncer23]] keeps contributing ''quality'' and [[WP:V|verifiable]] edits to [[James Fox (singer)|the article]], there really is no reason to ask him to stop. However, the COI tag should stay on the article until any users possibly connected with James Fox stop editing it and consensus says that it is neutral. I have gone through the article and removed some [[Youtube]] links that were used as references. As long as experienced and neutral editors keep weeding this kind of stuff out, and the whole thing does not turn into an edit war or blantant advertising, I would advise leaving things alone. I hope this helps and does not make things more confusing! Let me know if these comments make no sense; it has been known to happen before with me. ;-) '''Fléêťflämẽ''' <small> [[User:Fleetflame|U]]-[[User_talk:Fleetflame|T]]-[[Special:Contributions/Fleetflame|C]] </small> 22:34, 23 February 2008 (UTC)

::Thanks much for your comment at [[Talk:Anthony Burgess]]:
<blockquote>"then the article must explain to those of us who have not read much of Burgess' work why these things are in fact so important. It should not be assumed that reader's are Burgess experts, the wiki article should explain to all readers the importance of his work and the relevance of various biographical minutiae to this work, not just list facts for fans and assume readers can work out relevance on their own accord"</blockquote>

==Hello, Fellow de-orphaner!==
[[Image:Nuvola folder home.png|right]]I noticed you've been helping out trying to de-orphan the vast number of orphaned articles out there, and I'd like to say that we really appreciate your help. You might want to consider adding your name to the list of participants in [[WP:O|WikiProject Orphanage]], the WikiProject concerned with de-orphaning articles.
Here are some things you might want to do to get even more involved:
#Read the WikiProject Orphanage page, especially the section marked "[[WP:WikiProject#Criteria|Criteria]]". The page contains a lot of good advice on-deorphaning, as well as the standard procedures we are using to de-orphan articles.
#Look at {{tl|orphan}},{{tl|do-attempt}}, and {{tl|articleissues}} closely and make sure you know how to use them correctly. (It's not difficult, but it is easy to screw up. Trust me, I have.)
#Keep de-orphaning! [[:Category:Orphaned articles]] contains all orphaned articles organized by month. Right now we're just trying to keep up with all the new orphans being created, so please start with the current monthly category. Once those are cleared out, we can start working on the backlog in reverse-chronological order.
:You may have already known all of this, in which case sorry for the spam! Either way, Let me know if there's any way I can help you contribute more to the project. Thanks again!--[[User:Aervanath|Aervanath]] [[User talk:Aervanath|lives]] [[Special:Contributions/Aervanath|in]] '''''<font color="green">[[WP:O|the Orphanage]]</font>''''' 16:15, 14 September 2008 (UTC)

I'm not sure on the project actually. I think it might have become a bit inactive as ther was not much going on but it would be good to help to revive it. And your welcome on the reversion. Sorry for the few-days-later reply[[User:Simply south|Simply south]] ([[User talk:Simply south|talk]]) 20:12, 13 October 2008 (UTC)

== You're right ==

You were absolutely correct in adding ''A Little Girl Lost'' to the template... There are so many of them that I have trouble keeping them straight sometimes, and somehow missed this. My apologies, and I have undone my revert. The articles related to Songs of Innocence and Experience need a lot more work, and I hope to get to them some day. Sorry about that.
