Hello friend, I think you are having some misunderstanding. Melanie hasn;t said that IP users should not edit, and as you know IP users are already restricted from creating articles on mainspace since 2004-5. She is saying that new registered users should do some editing and spend sometime before creating articles, as you know, it is reasonable that new users don;t understand how Wikipedia works hence they create unformatted, unreferenced articles which are tagged for speedy deletion. Discouraged new users leave and never comes back. Anyway, I'm not asking to support her but please think about it again. Oh. Btw belated Happy New Year! :) '''[[User:Jim Carter|<span style="color:#000000">Jim</span> <span style="color:#FF0000">Car</span><span style="color:#FFCC00">ter</span>]]''' 05:29, 16 January 2015 (UTC) |

Revision as of 05:29, 16 January 2015
Usually I'm doing other things and I ignore this talk page. If you need to talk to me about an edit, talk to me at the place where I made the edit. If you seek general assistance with Wikipedia, please look elsewhere.
Edits to this talk page will usually be promptly deleted. I am aware that Wikipedia's talk page guidelines prefer archiving over deletion, but I prefer a clean page, traffic to this page is light, and every post remains accessible through the "history" tab above if you want to revisit a concluded conversation from here.
