I have already posted on other user pages (my own and [[Greta Garbo]'s) because I am new and I need help. If there is a specific page for me to go to regarding being new and needing guidance on Wikipedia, please let me know. I come on this particular page because I know that Angelina Jolie is probably the most searched topic around here and it's more likely that people will come on the user page and see this post.

No worries. The box at the top of this page, as I expected, contains most of the links you need to learn the ropes. 23skidoo (talk) 20:46, 14 August 2008 (UTC)
Saw your post at WP:AN and thought I'd suggest using Template:Adoptme by simply copying the code: {{Adoptme}} to somewhere on your user or user talk page. This will put you into the user category Category:Wikipedians seeking to be adopted in Adopt-a-user which is monitored by experienced editors interested in adopting new editors (read more at Wikipedia:Adopt-a-User). user:Everyme 15:04, 15 August 2008 (UTC)

I'd be more than willing to help you out! Wildthing61476 (talk) 13:41, 16 August 2008 (UTC)
I see that you've been adopted. That's fantastic! If you have any questions/concerns, please feel free to contact either myself or the user who has adopted you. Happy editing! Ms. Sarita (talk) 11:01, 18 August 2008 (UTC)
First place I would check out is here, which goes into detail on how to upload image and add images to articles. This same technique can be used to change an image as well. As for images off the internet, that's a tough one since it seems to be a hot button issue. The best rule of thumb is, if the pictures been released to the public domain, it's ok to use. Wildthing61476 (talk) 12:46, 19 August 2008 (UTC)
The whole fair-use image issue is a REALLY sticky one, and one of the most complicated I've seen. The best rule of thumb is if the picture has been explictly been released in the public domain, it can be used. With regards to your other question, check out how to create a unified login here. I've done this, and it links your account across a number of Wikipedia projects, including the Commons. Wildthing61476 (talk) 12:59, 20 August 2008 (UTC)
So you created this same username on the Commons, but it said the account didn't exist there when you tried to unify the accounts? I wanted to make sure I read that right. Wildthing61476 (talk) 03:52, 23 August 2008 (UTC)
Sorry to butt in, but I noticed that you're having a problem with unifying accounts. If your accounts have different passwords or authenticated emails (email you signed up with) then I think it wouldn't work. Maybe that's where your problem is. Maybe. I'm not quite sure. Sorry if I come across as nosy. I'm also adopted by Wildthing61476 and saw your post on his talk Itzjustdrama (drama?) 04:30, 23 August 2008 (UTC)
Thanks for the help! I had a bit of an issue linking my accounts at first as well, but somehow I fixed it. I wish for the life of me I remembered how. My suggestion would be go to the Unified Login talk page and ost the question there, and one of the developers that worked on the project could answer it for you. Wildthing61476 (talk) 12:51, 23 August 2008 (UTC)
Yes, I reverted it because I seriously doubt it's a free image. If you update the image, remember that it should be a free image only, and not fair-use. Thanks. Acalamari 01:44, 25 August 2008 (UTC)
Hi; wanted to let you know that I've reverted your addition to that article because it violates Wikipedia's rules concerning biographies of living persons. Looie496 (talk) 21:49, 25 August 2008 (UTC)
Ha ha, that last title for the talk thread was hilarious =) Anyway, the feel I get from discussion is that we should chill out on the topic for a while and wait for a more 'official' news release. No need to rush things into the article just yet. Let's be cool, daddio! Dp76764 (talk) 14:54, 27 August 2008 (UTC)
Happened with what? Dp76764 (talk) 19:59, 7 September 2008 (UTC)
Your recent edit to Talk:Hayden Panettiere has been reverted, as it was quite unacceptable. Please keep in mind that talk pages are not forums for general discussion, and that saying someone "sucks" is not appropriate anywhere on Wikipedia. Cheers, faithless (speak) 23:39, 7 September 2008 (UTC)
Hi there! I have no idea why your citations won't link correctly. Try going to the citation template page and scroll down to the "Cite web" section. That will give you the proper format. How are you writing out your citations? Ms. Sarita (talk) 04:28, 14 September 2008 (UTC)
Hi there. I took a glance at the Kanye West article and the only thing that I can notice (without reading it over thoroughly) is that the "Arrest" subsection and the "Pending charges" section should be in the same section since they are related to each other. I also agree that the two sections should be gone over to correct grammar and sentence structure. But, it's all on you and what you want to do. Ms. Sarita (talk) 05:28, 18 September 2008 (UTC)
Nope, not that I'm aware of. Dp76764 (talk) 14:38, 22 September 2008 (UTC)
sounds like one of three things happened:
try the last first - unplug your keyboard and plug it back in. then try shutting down your computer and checking for a stuck key (that usually involves inspecting the shift keys, turning the keyboard upside down and tapping it, maybe taking the keys off and putting them back on - if it's a laptop, you can open the keyboard like a flap, but be gentler with it). if you do all that, restart the machine, and you still have the problem, probably time to buy a new keyboard. --Ludwigs2 23:05, 26 September 2008 (UTC)
It has a yellower tint, more so than the iPhone, which was yellower than the iPod Touch, 1st generation. Side by side, the first and second touch appear very much alike, but the second touch has a steel bezel (outline), instead of aluminium, and external volume controls, it is also tapered at the back, so it's curved. Same thing as first, with 5 hours and 40 minutes of video life (on first day, watching 2 movies from iTunes, 50% brightness, using iPod earphones, half-way volume, no auto-brightness, no wi-fi), and the audio life is 40 hours with the same conditions. It's Home button is no longer pressed inwards, and has a cheaper feeling (it click when pushed), and the volume controls are plastic, and cheap feeling too. It comes with no dock, and the cleaning cloth is no longer high quality, but still usable. UI changed a little, bigger font, Genius playlisting, Nike + iPod support. They also added an internal speaker, not visible, but the sound comes from all the holes, and the metal back. Best change is probably battery, speaker and volume switch. The price is still ridiculous. 8/10 —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.14.220.119 (talk • contribs) 05:41, 4 October 2008 (UTC)

Because I was one of the first to start reverting his original research on baseball player articles. It snowballed into him being banned. So he shows up once or twice a week to pester the handful of users that he sees as his enemies. He's mostly a pest, like a mosquito you can't quite swat down.

Hey! Can you give me a couple examples of the details that are different? I would say whichever article is more current, but MTV is a pretty reliable source of information regarding music artists. – Ms. Sarita Confer 01:53, 15 November 2008 (UTC)
Just for your future information, it is generally considered impolite to "jump the queue" by moving your question to the opening spot again. Yours had only been up for three days. If a question isn't answered, it is usually because no one knows the answer or there is not a definitive one. You could help a Ref Desk volunteer help you by providing a link to the lyrics, for example, or to the song itself if the lyrics are themselves unclear. There is still no guarantee that anyone will know the answer except the writer of the lyrics, and even then, as with poetry, there may be more than one answer. The lyrics I saw here [1], for example, seem pretty self explanatory: horny dude has found himself a hot babe, who gives him a blow job while he's driving, and is otherwise a great lay. Of course, there is some question even about the exact lyrics. To help you more than that, I would have to listen to the song, and I am not that dedicated to the Ref Desk. Someone else may be. Good luck!៛ Bielle (talk) 04:20, 25 November 2008 (UTC)

Hello. According to Talk:IPod Touch, you want a review? (Sorry if that sounded wrong) The Touch is a great installment to the iPod series. It is very tough with mine being dropped at least 5 times which has only faint scratches on it. Acceloromater has little delay. Bottomline - Great machine. 4 out of 5 (I.P. may look different since I'm actually typing this on the iTouch) 72.188.39.132 (talk) 07:28, 2 January 2009 (UTC)
