Welcome!

Hello, Karanm, Welcome to Wikipedia!

I hope you like working here and want to continue. If you need help on how to name new articles, look at Naming Conventions, and for help on formatting the pages visit the Manual of Style. If you need general help, look at Help and the FAQ, and if you can't find your answer there, check the Village pump (for Wikipedia related questions) or the Reference Desk (for general questions). There's still more help at the Tutorial and the Policy Library. Also, don't forget to visit the Community Portal — and if you have any more questions after that, feel free to post them on my New-Users' Talk Page.

Additional tips:

Here are some extra tips to help you get around Wikipedia:

If you made any edits before you got an account, you might be interested in assigning those to your username.
If you want to play around with your new Wiki skills, try the Sandbox.
Click on the Edit button on a page, and look at how other editors did what they did.
You can sign your name using three tildes, like this: ~~~. If you use four, you can add a datestamp too. Always sign comments on Talk pages, never sign Articles.
You might want to add yourself to the New User Log
If your first language isn't English, try Wikipedia:Contributing to articles outside your native language

Happy editing!

So be it

Ah well Mel. This is a "standard" Wiki message I see. Anyway I guess the redirect was not to your liking. Perhaps I was wrong in directing "Impulsive highlighter" to "Impulsive highlighting". Karan 08:28, Mar 8, 2005 (UTC)

No, not standard — my welcome message, distinctive in form and content. As for Compulsive highlighting, unless I did it in my sleep, the redirect wasn't my doing. It's impossible to tell from the page history; what happened? Mel Etitis (Μελ Ετητης) 09:05, 8 Mar 2005 (UTC)

I don't know anything about Compulsive Highlighting, though it should redirect to Impulsive highlighting now that you've mentioned it, because it seems to speak of the same activity. I had put a redirect from Impulsive Highlighter to Impulsive Highlighting and that was speedily deleted. And that's what I thought your message was about. Was it not? Karan 09:37, Mar 8, 2005 (UTC)

Sorry, I meant Impulsive highlighting. I didn't speedy-delete tag the article, in fact (I panicked in case I'd done it and forgotten, but checking my contributions list, I didn't lay a finger on it). I may have added the 'experiment' message because I saw that someone else had added the tag. Mel Etitis (Μελ Ετητης) 10:22, 8 Mar 2005 (UTC)

So be it then

I don't know the reason for the speedy delete; if you could find the person who added the tag, you could ask them. Mel Etitis (Μελ Ετητης) 20:02, 8 Mar 2005 (UTC)

How should I do that?

The only way that I can think of is by looking at the 'recent changes' (link on the left) and paging through until you get to about the right time. The page name, user, and edit summary will be there. Mel Etitis (Μελ Ετητης) 21:32, 8 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Thanks for the info but I don't think it's worth the effort.

Proposed deletion of File:Imhi.gif

Unused, low-res, no obvious use.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated files}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the file's talk page.
