Welcome to Misplaced Pages
Welcome!

- Manual of Style
I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your messages on discussion pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically insert your username and the date. If you need help, check out Misplaced Pages:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or ask your question on this page and then place {{helpme}} before the question. Again, welcome! - 2/0 (cont.) 17:09, 11 January 2010 (UTC)
Climate change probation
Thank you for your contributions to the encyclopedia! In case you are not already aware, an article to which you have recently contributed, Global warming, is on article probation. A detailed description of the terms of article probation may be found at Misplaced Pages:General sanctions/Climate change probation. Also note that the terms of some article probations extend to related articles and their associated talk pages.
The above is a templated message. Please accept it as a routine friendly notice, not as a claim that there is any problem with your edits. Thank you.
- So to answer a question you asked over at Talk:Global warming - you should be able to edit there after four days and ten edits, though as evidenced by the above boilerplate, talking over any potentially controversial changes is a very good idea. A few articles attract large numbers of people interested only in saying "hello" or leaving strings of nonsense characters just to see if they can. Preventing new and unregistered users from editing certain articles (though obviously the talkpages remain open) is a compromise between anyone can edit and not compelling regular editors to spend all day fixing such vandalism. For another take on a similar problem, click edit at Beauty. - 2/0 (cont.) 17:09, 11 January 2010 (UTC)

Could you please rewrite Talk:Global warming#warming from pre-industrial times to 1950, I'm confused as to what's wrong, and I'd appreciate if you'd clarify that. ChyranandChloe (talk) 08:50, 17 January 2010 (UTC)
