Welcome

HamatoKameko, welcome to Wikinews! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are a few good links for newcomers:

Our key policies - if you read anything, read these!

• Wikinews:Neutral point of view - tell every side to a story in a fair and balanced way
• Wikinews:Cite sources - everything in a Wikinews article must be sourced

Here a few pointers to help you get to know Wikinews:

• Wikinews:Introduction - overview of the site
• Wikinews:Writing an article - how to write and publish a complete article
• Wikinews:Content guide - what's suitable for Wikinews
• Wikinews:Style guide - how articles should look before publishing
• Wikinews:Contents - the contents page.

There are always things to do on Wikinews:

• Existing articles need expanding and checking for spelling and mistakes
• The front page lead articles often need updating
• Developing stories need finishing and publishing
• Discussions need your input
• Audio Wikinews could always use more contributors
• And of course, stories need writing!

By the way, you can sign your name on Talk pages using four tildes (~~~~), which produces your name and the current date. If you have any questions, you can ask them at the water cooler or to anyone on the Welcommittee, or ask me on my Talk page. Again, welcome! Now that you've got through the standard welcome message, a little more personal welcome from me! You may remember bumping into me before on Wikipedia...

Haha, of course I remember you. I was actually considering leaving a message on your talk page just to say "hi," but hadn't yet gotten to it. Nice to see you're here, too, and thanks for the welcome! -HamatoKameko - (talk) 03:39, 16 March 2008 (UTC)

I thought you might ;-). Well, see you around. Category:Lordi always wants more articles! :-D Blood Red Sandman ^{(Talk) (Contribs)} 18:12, 16 March 2008 (UTC)

RE: Thank You!

Thank you for reverting the vandalism to my talk page. -HamatoKameko - (talk) 06:53, 21 March 2008 (UTC)

No problem. By the way, I blocked the vandal as he keeps vandalizing talk pages. --Anonymous101 (talk · contribs) 06:55, 21 March 2008 (UTC)
