Welcome
[edit]Hey Meikal - I'm the first to be on your talk page! Greetings - and welcome to Wikipedia, mate. It's fun when you get started - perhaps we can find stuff to collaborate on soon... For starters, check out the welcome page for the basics. Pteron 11:36, 24 Oct 2004 (UTC)
Hello
[edit]Thanks for the message on my talk page. I think I called you a "possible sockpuppet", but many apologies if the hat does not fit: it is just a bit unusual for someone's first edits to be on a Wikipedia page such as WP:COTW rather than an actual article. By way of amends, please see see the "welcome" message below. Happy editing! -- ALoan (Talk) 09:51, 25 Oct 2004 (UTC)

Notification: changes to "Mark my edits as minor by default" preference
[edit]Hello there. This is an automated message to tell you about the gradual phasing out of the preference entitled "Mark all edits minor by default", which you currently have enabled.
On 13 March 2011, this preference was hidden from the user preferences screen as part of efforts to prevent its accidental misuse (consensus discussion). This had the effect of locking users in to their existing preference, which, in your case, was true
. To complete the process, your preference will automatically be changed to false
in the next few days. This does not require any intervention on your part and you will still be able to manually mark your edits as being 'minor'. The only thing that's changed is that you will no longer be able to have them marked as minor by default. For more information on what a minor edit is, see WP:MINOR or feel to get in touch.
Thank you for your understanding and happy editing :) Editing on behalf of User:Jarry1250, LivingBot (talk) 22:41, 13 March 2011 (UTC)
Your contributed article, Abdurahman H. H. Osman ' Mallay'
[edit]If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
Hello, I notice that you recently created a new page, Abdurahman H. H. Osman ' Mallay'. First, thank you for your contribution; Wikipedia relies solely on the efforts of volunteers such as you. Unfortunately, the page you created covers a topic on which we already have a page - Abdurahman H. H. Osman 'Mallay'. Because of the duplication, your article has been tagged for speedy deletion. Please note that this is not a comment on you personally and we hope you will continue helping to improve Wikipedia. If the topic of the article you created is one that interests you, then perhaps you would like to help out at Abdurahman H. H. Osman 'Mallay' - you might like to discuss new information at the article's talk page.
If you think that the article you created should remain separate, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. Additionally if you would like to have someone review articles you create before they go live so they are not nominated for deletion shortly after you post them, allow me to suggest the article creation process and using our search feature to find related information we already have in the encyclopedia. Try not to be discouraged. Wikipedia looks forward to your future contributions. Calabe1992 (talk) 20:58, 6 September 2011 (UTC)
Citation at voiced palatal implosive
[edit]Nice find at Voiced palatal implosive. I always appreciate when people try to source their edits. If you could, please try to provide fuller citation forms so that readers and other editors have a clear understanding of what source is being indicated. I had to do a bit of hunting to flesh out the citation you'd provided. Regards. — Ƶ§œš¹ [ãːɱ ˈfɹ̠ˤʷɪ̃ə̃nlɪ] 00:37, 30 June 2012 (UTC)
Hi. I would but just I can't remember all the wikicode, and I guessed it would be an easy find. It is correct in any case. Best Meikal (talk) 20:45, 30 June 2012 (UTC)
