Welcome

Hello Junkyardprince and welcome to Wikipedia! Hope you like it here, and stick around.

Here are some tips to help you get started:

To sign your posts (on talk pages, for example) use the '~' symbol. To insert just your name, type ~~~ (3 tildes), or, to insert your name and timestamp, use ~~~~ (4 tildes).
Try the Tutorial, and feel free to experiment in the test area.
If you need help, post a question at the Help Desk
Follow the Wikipedia:Simplified Ruleset
Eventually, you might want to read the Manual of Style and Policies and Guidelines.
Remember Wikipedia:Neutral point of view
Explore, be bold in editing pages, and, most importantly, have fun!

Good luck!

Marangoni effect -- the purpose of redirect pages

Marangoni-Effect → Marangoni effect. I moved the former to the latter because neither the hyphen nor the second capital fits the naming standard. I've corrected the links (all one of them...) so the redirect doesn't serve any purpose. Junkyard prince 21:15, 24 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- I disagree. KEEP. You misunderstand the purpose. I often deliberately create redirects with non-standard spelling, non-standard punctuation, non-standard capitalization, etc. That's exactly what redirects are for! It prevents (1) future creation of a separate article with the incorrect title, and (2) confusion caused by future incorrect links created by others; if someone incorrectly links to the version with the hyphen and the capitalized E, then the redirect page is precisely what will call attention to the error.

Chelsie hawk`

Thanks for merging that article. It's been in my "do SOMETHING with this" bookmark folder for a while, but I couldn't think how best to approach it. Joyous (talk) 17:47, August 5, 2005 (UTC)

Deleting user page...sorry!

I missed the fact that it was a user page! Sorry about that. --- Mike 05:51, 6 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Moisturizer

Hi. I am proposing that moisturizer and emollient exchange some of their sections. I see that you had previously contributed, so I would value your thoughts on my comments in Talk:Moisturizer. - David Ruben 18:37, 9 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Um, I corrected a redlink - I know absolutely nothing about the moisturizing arts. I'll have a look though. Junkyard prince 20:37, 9 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Cleanup Taskforce

Greetings. You are receiving this boilerplate notice because you have a task on your Cleanup Taskforce desk that has not been updated for over 30 days. If you do not wish to complete this task please assign it to another Cleanup Taskforce member who has space on their desk. If you do not wish to receive cleanup requests on your desk any more, you may remove yourself from the membership list. If you or someone else has completed the task, you can close it by adding {{cleanup taskforce closed|ARTICLE NAME HERE}} to the article's talk page and removing it from Wikipedia:Cleanup Taskforce. If you have a status update (e.g. you intend to work on it in the future) or need help, you can update the collaboration page (which is linked from your desk). Also feel free to reply to the person who left you this message. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Beland (talk • contribs) 13:06, 16 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Screenshot of Wikipedia on WorldWideWeb on NeXT

I've got an old NeXTstation that hasn't been powered up in years. If it still boots at all I might be able to get a screenshot of the Wikipedia main page in WorldWideWeb per your request on Wikipedia:Requested pictures -- if I can, where did you think it should go? — mendel ☎ 04:53, 31 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I should add: It won't be pretty, because the main page is full of HTML that didn't exist then, assuming the Wikipedia webservers will even handle that early a version of HTTP, so I doubt it will be particularly illustrative of what WorldWideWeb looked like at the time. — mendel ☎ 04:56, 31 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:Papa_Roach_-_Potatoes_for_Christmas_cd_cover.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Papa_Roach_-_Potatoes_for_Christmas_cd_cover.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Seraphim ^Whipp 13:11, 16 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for File:WorldWideWeb screenshot.gif

Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:WorldWideWeb screenshot.gif. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the file description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. — ξ ^xplicit 00:51, 28 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

WP:Weasel wording

Hi, Junkyardprince. Regarding your edit here, see what I stated here. Such wording is allowed in some cases, such as the case of a topic sentence; this is noted at the WP:Weasel wording guideline. Flyer22 Reborn (talk) 00:32, 4 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I must've missed that part of the guideline. Thanks for explaining. Junkyardprince (talk) 20:59, 14 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Anthropomorphic cartoons listed at Redirects for discussion

An editor has asked for a discussion to address the redirect Anthropomorphic cartoons. Since you had some involvement with the Anthropomorphic cartoons redirect, you might want to participate in the redirect discussion if you have not already done so. jd22292 (Jalen D. Folf) (talk) 04:20, 14 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I can neither confirm nor deny any involvement with that redirect, but I don't know what to do with it. Funny animal might be a better target but that's not quite right either. Junkyardprince (talk) 20:58, 14 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
