I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and vote pages using three tildes, like this: ~~~. Four tildes (~~~~) produces your name and the current date. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. Again, welcome!
Coldplay fan? --Lord Voldemort (Dark Mark) 17:53, 1 September 2005 (UTC)
- Hey no problem. It is our duty to be nice to and welcome newcomers. So you were named before him, eh? So do you like Coldplay or not? You probably hate the fact that you share the name of a famous singer. Ever seen Office Space? Well, I hope you like Wikipedia and decide to stick around. And don't forget... you should sign your name after your comments using four tildes (~~~~). When you click save, it will automatically put it on there. Anyway, have a nice day. Cheers. --Lord Voldemort (Dark Mark) 19:44, 1 September 2005 (UTC)
- So there really is a Michael Bolton developer? Huh, who woulda guessed? He must feel really lucky then. See ya around. --Lord Voldemort (Dark Mark) 21:09, 1 September 2005 (UTC)
You said: "(12,785 bytes) (changed to Atlanta metropolitan area. It is too nitpicky to specify that it's outside the city limits of Atlanta. In a larger content, it's part of Atlanta.) (undo)"
ChrisMartin, that is not being too nitpicky. That is being accurate. We care about specifics on Wikipedia.

Conflict of interest policy
[edit] Hello, Chrismartin76. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a conflict of interest may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. We ask that you:
- avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, colleagues, company, organization or competitors;
- propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the {{request edit}} template);
- disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see Wikipedia:Conflict of interest#How to disclose a COI);
- avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see WP:Spam);
- do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.
In addition, you are required by the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use to disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation. See Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure.
Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. --Hipal/Ronz (talk) 17:05, 18 March 2020 (UTC)
