Hello, Jimcripps, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions; I hope you like the place and decide to stay. We're glad to have you in our community! Here are a few good links for newcomers:

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Though we all make goofy mistakes, here is what Wikipedia is not. If you have any questions or concerns, don't hesitate to see the help pages or add a question to the village pump. The Community Portal can also be very useful.

Happy editing!

P.S. Feel free to leave a message on my talk page if you need help with anything or simply wish to say hello. :) MoppEr Speak! 02:24, 5 May 2006 (UTC)Reply

Edits on Disambig pages

edit

You asked a question in your edit on Warlock (disambiguation). The reason I removed the link to the band is that only the main subject of the line should be wikilinked on a disambiguation page. This is one of many guidelines at MoS:DAB that suggest how DAB pages should look. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask. Welcome to WP! - grubber 04:23, 19 October 2006 (UTC)Reply

Hrm. And I suppose, as long as there are redlinks, the rest are okay. I'm fine with that. Jimcripps 13:14, 19 October 2006 (UTC)Reply
Yeah, redlinks are tough. I'm never sure exactly what to do. If there's not an article about it should there really be an entry? I tend to let most redlinks stay (unless it's an article that will probably never exist), but try to link at least one thing in the line. I'm a member of WP:WPDIS and WP:DPL, which work to try to fix the dab pages. You're welcome to help us if you like! - grubber 16:29, 19 October 2006 (UTC)Reply
