Welcome

Vilalva, 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 are some 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:Reviewing articles - how articles pass through editorial review
• 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!--MarkTalk to me 01:15, 3 November 2008 (UTC)

Thanks

Thank you for your warm comments; I can see that we both feel that we've been responded to similarly—and while I personally think that the article you wrote fails to attest to its own relevance (from reading it, I was not stricken by its significance, but that is true of some other articles which are retained here), I do think that the responses you received may have been misleading or inappropriate, and certainly it was inappropriate for him to attempt to delete your article without having responded to your concerns.

Canvassing for keep votes

Please do not canvass for votes in a deletion discussion, as you did here at the talk page of Jade Knight (talk · contribs). Thank you, Cirt (talk) 09:02, 8 November 2008 (UTC)

Just please do not do it again. Thanks, Cirt (talk) 22:58, 8 November 2008 (UTC)

Note: the followup of the discussion of this issue raised by review editor Cirt is available at this wnlink. --Vilalva (talk) 14:58, 10 November 2008 (UTC)

Copyvio at Talk:The Rosicrucian Fellowship announces its 13th International European Conference

Please do not post copyvio to pages on this site, as you did and was removed here. Thank you. Cirt (talk) 10:41, 10 November 2008 (UTC)

As I have previously stated here, I am pretty convinced that this author's sublime poetry, already deceased, that I have inadvertedly copied to the above mentioned collaboration page, is released in w:public domain. Not being totally sure, perhaps the w:Rosicrucian Fellowship may clarify this ownership issue unto us. --Vilalva (talk) 14:30, 10 November 2008 (UTC)

Please be more careful in the future. Thanks. Cirt (talk) 15:17, 10 November 2008 (UTC)
