Hello GraveGuy, welcome to Misplaced Pages. Thank you for your contributions.
I hope you like the place and decide to stay. We as a community are glad to have you and thank you for creating a user account! Here are a few good links for newcomers:
If you ever think a page or image should be deleted, please list it at the votes for deletion page. There is also a votes for undeletion page if you want to retrieve something that you think should not have been deleted.
If you're still entirely confused, or would like to get a better grasp of your wikipedia skills, and you have an IRC client (or don't mind getting one), check out the Bootcamp. It's not what it sounds like, but it is fun and can help you with your editing skills.
If you're bored and want to find something to do, try the Random page button in the sidebar, or check out the Open Task message in the Community Portal.
Remember to place any articles you create into a category so we don't get orphans.
I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! By the way, please be sure to sign your name on Talk Pages and vote pages using four tildes (~~~~) to produce your name and the current date, or three tildes (~~~) for just your name. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my Talk page. Once again, welcome.
Brian New Zealand (~~~~) The current date and time is 7 January 2025 T 19:30UTC.
P.S. Hope to see you around the Wiki! And if you have any questions whatsoever, feel free to contact me on my talk page!
When using template tags on talk pages, don't forget to substitute with text by adding subst: to the template tag. For example, use {{subst:test}} instead of {{test}}. This reduces server load and prevents accidental blanking of the template.

Before adding a link that may be seen as spam or frivolous, please discuss it on the talk page. Repeatedly adding what this link without discussion will result in a temporary block. Thank you. // Pathoschild09:41, 13 December 2005 (UTC)
