[edit] Welcome to Simple English Wikipedia!
Dear Ionius Mundus: Welcome to Simple English 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:

If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the Simple talk page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have!
Wikipedians try to follow a strict policy of never biting new users. If you are unsure of how to do something, you are welcome to ask a more experienced user such as an administrator. One last bit of advice: please sign any dicussion comment with four tildes (~~~~). The software will automatically convert this into your signature which you can change 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! -- Psy guy 01:25, 22 July 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Welcome
I also welcome to you. I saw your edit to the Indian independence movement. --Bhadani 09:33, 22 July 2006 (UTC)
Thank you. I would like to try and improve many similar articles and make some new ones. --Ionius Mundus 15:56, 22 July 2006 (UTC)
[edit] moving/renaming pages
If you need to rename a page (like Khmer rouge to Khmer Rouge), please use the "move" link at the top (or side) of the page. Don't move a page by copy-and-pasting the text. Thanks. -- Netoholic @ 16:29, 25 July 2006 (UTC)
Thank you, I have never tried moving a page before, and so was unsure of how to do it. --Ionius Mundus 18:02, 25 July 2006 (UTC)
[edit] 10,000 articles
I don't recommend creating articles merely to reach the 10,000 mark, and especially to abruptly stop creating articles afterward. Please take this into consideration. --Ionius Mundus 06:17, 26 July 2006 (UTC)
Could an admin harm me just for doing this? Those are valid articles. Ok, I guess I'll make like 3 more. --E.N.G. 06:19, 26 July 2006 (UTC)
Ok, I made three more articles. Why did you not recommend what I did before? What's a possible issue that may arise? --E.N.G. 06:36, 26 July 2006 (UTC)
[edit] User page history
I've removed the vandal's name from the history now (as well as the vandalism itself). Personally I find it entertaining to look back through my user page vandalism, but if you ever want it doing again just give me a shout, it's no problem. To see the effects of the removal on your history page you'll probably have to reset your browser's cache, which you can do by holding down 'Shift' and clicking reload on most browsers. Clicking this link should also work if that doesn't. Archer7 - talk 19:59, 29 July 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Image is gone
Was just getting down to it. - Amgine 05:31, 22 August 2006 (UTC)
- <nods> The account has been permanently blocked from editing. This doesn't really mean anything. - Amgine 05:33, 22 August 2006 (UTC)
- In the process of trying to restore it now. - Amgine 05:40, 22 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] A suggestion
To avoid making the history of your user page very very long, and thus difficult to undelete, I would encourage you to creat the page User:Ionius Mundus/Pages I have created and transclude *that* into your user page. (currently you have 45 revisions to your user page which you would like to keep, each of which needs to be selected by hand when undeleting it.) - Amgine 05:57, 22 August 2006 (UTC)
- It is much less likely to be vandalized this way, so less work for the admin. Yes, only an admin can do what I was doing. I was temporarily admined to deal with vandalism. I've asked that the adminship be removed, so I can't fix things now. Hopefully an admin will be here again soon. - Amgine 06:12, 22 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Barnstar
Hello, for your efforts in making the Simple really Simple. As a token of my appreciation and regards. BTW, right now I am logging off, I shall come up with more comments next week. --Bhadani 16:59, 25 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Tag on top
Hi, I just "decorated" the tag on top. Hope it's more attention catching. :D--Tdxiang 08:31, 29 August 2006 (UTC)
