From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Welcome to Wikipedia , I hope you will like it here and decide to stay.

You may want to take a look at the welcome page, tutorial, and stylebook, avoiding common mistakes and Wikipedia is not pages.

Here are some links I've found useful:

Also: To sign comments on talk pages, simply type four tildes, like this: ~~~~. This will automatically add your username and the time after your comments. Signing with three tildes ~~~ will just sign your username.

I hope to see you around Wikipedia! If you have any questions, feel free to contact me on my talk page!

Re: Illustrator.

Hey, I just saw your message on the Illustrator talk page, too.

Go for it. My lump of edits came when I was updating for CS3, and saw a bunch of unreferenced criticisms. If you have info and such on early releases, please, go ahead. I couldn't find much online with a cursory search, and I'm too much of a youngin' to know anything about Illustrator releases in the eighties. perardi 03:32, 21 April 2007 (UTC) reply

P.S. Thanks for the whole, you know, making Illustrator thing. I'm using it right now to for an illustration project due Monday. Hopefully my copy of CS3 that should arrive tomorrow will treat me well. perardi 03:45, 21 April 2007 (UTC) reply

You are invited to join Stanford's WikiProject!

As a current or past contributor to a related article, I thought I'd let you know about WikiProject Stanford University, a collaborative effort to improve Wikipedia's coverage of Stanford University. If you would like to participate, you can visit the project page, where you can join the project and see a list of open tasks and related articles. Thanks!

I am accessing the net via a proxy server at Adobe, but my IP address is not 192.150.10.200, it is 153.32.55.98. I don't know what the proxy server's address is, though.

My reasons for wanting to edit were to reply to ralphamale's invitation to join the Stanford University project (respectfully declining), and to edit the Eric Schneiderman article to make the mention of Hiram Monserrate be a hyperlink to the latter's article. (I don't have time for major edits, I mainly just make minor tweeks to existing articles, such as adding cross-links and sources.)
