Here are some useful tips to ease you into the Wikipedia experience:
- First, take a look at the Wikipedia Tutorial, and perhaps dabble a bit in the test area.
- When you have some free time, take a look at the Manual of Style and Policies and Guidelines. They can come in very handy!
- Remember to use a neutral point of view!
- If you need any help, feel free to post a question at the Help Desk
- Explore, be bold in editing pages, and, most importantly, have fun!
Also, here are some odds and ends that I find useful from time to time:
- Wikipedia:Policy Library
- Wikipedia:Utilities
- Wikipedia:Cite your sources
- Wikipedia:Verifiability
- Wikipedia:Wikiquette
- Wikipedia:Civility
- Wikipedia:Conflict resolution
- Wikipedia:Brilliant prose
- Wikipedia:Pages needing attention
- Wikipedia:Peer review
- Wikipedia:Bad jokes and other deleted nonsense
- Wikipedia:Village pump

Feel free to ask me anything the links and talk pages don't answer. You can most easily reach me by posting on my talk page.
You can sign your name on any page by typing 4 tildes, likes this: ~~~~.
Best of luck, and have fun!

Political consulting
[edit]I've made the term a link, but you should be able to do the same thing, simply by enclosing it in double brackets, e.g.: [[cookie cutter campaign]]. You might want to see Wikipedia:How to edit a page for more on wiki markup -- specifically, it's customary to bold the first mention of the article's title, by enclosing it in triple apostrophes, e.g. '''Cookie cutter campaign'''.

I reverted all your edits to Political families of Philadelphia as they were clearly not NPOV, nor were they well done. Perhaps you should create page for the other members of the Cohen clan? --evrik 13:05, 11 October 2006 (UTC)
Welcome
[edit]Please let me add my welcome. I hope that you enjoy your time here. I ask that you follow Wikipedia style when making edits. Please review some of the articles identified above. they will help you contribute more productively to Wikipedia. Also, please review WP:OWN. Thanks. Ground Zero | t 13:22, 27 November 2006 (UTC)
- Specificlly, when creating links, please do not put extra spaces between the brackets, i.e., [[link]], not [[ link ]]. The latter style can create formatting problems, especially when followed by punctuation, such as a comma or a period. Thanks. Ground Zero | t 12:01, 28 November 2006 (UTC)
Mark Cohen
[edit]I notice that a number of your recent edits to the articles are not sourced. I must insist on some sources for this shrine to Rep. Cohen. Montco 01:59, 14 February 2007 (UTC)
A tag has been placed on Krewstown, Philadelphia, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.
Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. If you plan to expand the article, you can request that administrators wait a while for you to add contextual material. To do this, affix the template {{hangon}}
to the article and state your intention on the article's talk page. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. The Helpful One (Talk) 19:43, 25 November 2007 (UTC)
Mark Cohen page
[edit]Hello, I have recently worked on the Mark B. Cohen wikipedia article, and I see that you have done much of the work on it. It was an incredibly exhaustive and thorough article, but I think that it veered too far into the advertisement zone. As such, I tagged it as WP:Advert. If you go to the talk page of that article you can see my rationale for most of the changes I made.
On another note, I am very interested in expanding the PA government's presence of wikipedia, so I've been working to create pages for all of the legislators. I couldn't believe that only 3 or 4 of the legislative leaders had article! Hopefully soon enough all legislators and top judges will have thorough articles similar to the one on Mark Cohen. --RedShiftPA (talk) 19:32, 16 December 2007 (UTC)
AfD nomination of David Cohen
[edit]![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/5/57/Circle-style-warning.svg/48px-Circle-style-warning.svg.png)
An article that you have been involved in editing, David Cohen, has been listed for deletion. If you are interested in the deletion discussion, please participate by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/David Cohen. Thank you.
From the history of these pages it looks like you also significantly edited these articles, so I thought that I'd give you a heads-up so you can voice your opinion on the notability questions. I mean no disrespect to these folks, and the articles are interesting and well-written biographies. Especially for the articles on David and Florence Cohen.

Unreferenced BLPs
[edit] Hello Zulitz! Thank you for your contributions. I am a bot notifying you on behalf of the the unreferenced biographies team that 2 of the articles that you created are currently tagged as Unreferenced Biographies of Living Persons. The biographies of living persons policy requires that all personal or potentially controversial information be sourced. In addition, to ensure verifiability, all biographies should be based on reliable sources. If you were to bring these articles up to standards, it would greatly help us with the current 726 article backlog. Once the articles are adequately referenced, please remove the {{unreferencedBLP}} tag. Here is the list:
- Idella Moore - Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL
- C. Ellen Connally - Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL
Thanks!--DASHBot (talk) 21:52, 18 August 2010 (UTC)

License tagging for File:Electoral college.jpg
[edit]Thanks for uploading File:Electoral college.jpg. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information.
To add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia. For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 06:09, 24 October 2011 (UTC)

[edit]![⚠](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/34/Ambox_warning_blue.svg/35px-Ambox_warning_blue.svg.png)
Thanks for uploading File:Electoral college.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use.

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Mohamed Aden Ighe (talk) 11:00, 25 October 2011 (UTC)

This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

Interview with Jewish Exponent
[edit]Hello,
My name is Eric Schucht and I'm a reporter for the Jewish Exponent in Philadelphia. I'm writing an article on the history behind the Wikipedia page on the History of the Jews in Philadelphia. I saw that you made some major edits to the page a while back and I was wondering if you'd be willing to talk to me about why you decided to add to the page, what exactly you added and what lead you to edit Wikipedia pages in general. Please feel free to email me if you're interested.
Thank you,

The article Cookie-cutter campaign has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
What appears to be a WP:NEOLOGISM, and largely comprised of WP:OR. While searches turn up times when campaigns were described as being "cookie-cutter" or similar, there are not actually any sources going into any significant coverage of this as a concept.
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}}
