[edit] Welcome

Hello Kristbg and welcome to Wikipedia! I'm glad you've chosen to join us. This is a great project with lots of dedicated people, which might seem intimidating at times, but don't let anything discourage you. Be bold!, explore, and contribute. If you want to learn more,

• Wikipedia:Bootcamp teaches you the basics quickly,
• Wikipedia:Tutorial is more in-depth, and
• Wikipedia:Topical index is exhaustive.

The following links might also come in handy:

• Glossary
• FAQ
• Help
• Manual of Style
• Five Pillars of Wikipedia

Float around for awhile until you find something that tickles your fancy. One easy way to do this is to hit the random page button in the navigation bar to the left. You can write new articles, add to existing ones, or edit any and all pages that appear. There are also many great committees and groups that focus on particular jobs. My personal favorite stomping grounds are Wikipedia:Translation into English and Wikipedia:Cleanup for sloppy articles, but they may not interest you. Finally, the Wikimedia Foundation has several other wiki projects that you might enjoy more, but Wikipedia is the most popular by far.

There are a few crucial points to keep in mind when editing. Be civil with users, strive to maintain a neutral point of view, and show good etiquette like signing your comments with four tildas like this: ~~~~ If you have any more questions, always feel free to ask me anything on my talk page or ask the true experts at Wikipedia:Help desk. Again, welcome! Draeco 21:59, 26 November 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Sources for A Day Without Me

Hello, good work on A Day Without Me, and thanks for the contribution. However, you forgot to add any references to the article. Keeping Wikipedia accurate and verifiable is very important, and there is currently a push to encourage editors to cite the sources they used when adding content. From what websites, books, or other places did you learn the information that you added to A Day Without Me? Would it be possible for you to mention them in the article? You can simply add links, or there are several different citation methods list at WP:CITET. Thanks! — BRIAN0918 • 2005-12-4 20:30

[edit] Love and Peace for Else: Good Work

Well, I just wanted to tell you, good job.

I clearly forgot about the copyright infringement - thanks for catching that. 'Preciate it. --Nomader 05:14, 4 March 2006 (UTC)

Always a pleasure, thanks! --Kristbg 13:43, 4 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Image:Bono ipod.JPG

Hi unfortunately we can't use this image as we don't have a fair use claim on it for Bono (we might in an article on ipod). We have many free images for Bono at commons:Category:U2 so you could use one of those if you prefer. Arniep 22:12, 13 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] From another U2 fan

I'm happy to know that U2 has too many "monster" fans. I'm in that group too. If you want to share informations about U2 with me, don't hesitate. Aeternus 16:35, 7 April 2006 (UTC)

Hi, Kristbg. I like your style on the U2 material. You are clearly a fan, but you are strict and don't want to see wikipedia articles on the subject turn into a rock mag. Keep up the good work. Let me know what you think of my edits. Cheers. --Merbabu 14:31, 25 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Nice work (as normal)

NIce work on U2 with your citation formats. There's been a few changes lately by others - lol. But i think they are all for the best. Makes it an encyclopedia, rather than a magazine. Although i was smarting over loosing all the album covers. --Merbabu 17:29, 15 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Sunday Bloody Sunday (song): peer review

I know you've been inactive for some time, but since you got the original good article nomination going, I thought I'd let you know I've requested the article be peer reviewed. If you're interesting in following the discussion, check out Wikipedia:Peer review/Sunday Bloody Sunday (song). Thanks! McMillin24 _contribs^talk 20:47, 16 October 2006 (UTC)
