Hello, welcome to Wikipedia. Here are some useful links in case you haven't already found them;
If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian!

It certainly is possible that VfD can be shortened - if you help us shorten it! You can remove any listings that you consider resolved - either deleting them (if you don't think they're important long term), or moving them to the relevant talk page. Also, where discussions are getting long, you can move them to the relevant talk page (or a /delete page - see wikipedia:archived deletion debates) just leaving a two line reference. If we all work together, we can help make the page shorter and more usable for everyone! :) Martin 19:35, 25 Nov 2003 (UTC)
Re: Tomoe Gozen - that sort of thing can and should be deleted on site if an administrator spots it. I've deleted it now - thanks for finding it. Secretlondon 19:22, Dec 1, 2003 (UTC)
Thanks for spotting that DefCon was a duplicate of Defense Condition. I don't think either should be deleted though. What happens when an article is accidentally duplicated is that is listed on Wikipedia:Duplicate articles until someone can merge the two. This saves useful information being deleted. I have added merge notices to the two articles so that anyone working on them will be aware that there is another waiting to be merged with it. Angela 04:47, 2 Dec 2003 (UTC)
Note to myself...
Just FYI, I check the New Articles article frequently, and I always seem to want to notify someone of a so-called "junk page" whenever I spot one, not knowing that the administrator will eventually spot it quickly enough. So if any of the administrators get a note from me telling them of a junk page, remember this little note. Eventually, I will be confident enough to reassure myself that an administrator will spot and delete a junk page just a few minutes after I spot it myself.

Thanks! Just what I always wanted. :) Wikipedia:Deleted test is a place you can leave such things if I'm not around. Angela 01:05, 3 Dec 2003 (UTC)
They were all created by JoeM who is near enough banned and as such have now been deleted. Angela. 20:13, 13 Dec 2003 (UTC)

In X (window sytem), the server is the computer with the display and keyboard; the client is the computer running the actual program; yes, this is the reverse of conventional client/server terminology, but it is the X window terminology, and mixing the two on the X page would need some careful clarification, which is probably a good idea in any case :) Pagan 06:59, 31 Dec 2003 (UTC) (I mention this because you swapped them around, and I assume you're merely unfamiliar with X terminology.)
