Welcome
- Welcome!
Hello and welcome to Misplaced Pages. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. The following links will help you begin editing on Misplaced Pages:
- The Five Pillars of Misplaced Pages
- How to edit a page
- Editing tutorial
- Picture tutorial
- How to write a great article
- Naming conventions
- Manual of Style
- Please bear these points in mind while editing Misplaced Pages
- Respect copyrights – do not copy and paste text or images directly from other websites.
- Maintain a neutral point of view – this is possibly the most important Misplaced Pages policy.
- Take particular care while adding biographical material about a living person to any Misplaced Pages page to follow Misplaced Pages's Biography of Living Persons' policy. Particularly, controversial and negative statements should be referenced with multiple reliable sources.
- No edit warring and sockpuppetry.
- If you are testing, please use the Sandbox to do so.
- Do not add troublesome content to any article, such as: copyrighted text, libel, advertising or promotional messages, and text that is not related to an article's subject. Deliberately adding such content or otherwise editing articles maliciously is considered vandalism, doing so will result your account or IP being blocked from editing.
The Misplaced Pages Tutorial is a good place to start learning about Misplaced Pages. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and discussion pages using four tildes, like this: ~~~~ (the software will replace them with your signature and the date). Again, welcome!

Shakespeare
Leaving aside the problems with your argument for the moment, there is no point adding views to an archived page. The debate there is over. You certainly should not add them to an article. Please familiarise yourself with Misplaced Pages policy: WP:RS, WP:V, WP:NPOV WP:FRINGE. Paul B (talk) 17:24, 17 December 2010 (UTC)
- Agree with Paul B, which is why I am reverting the transfer to talk page of something that has been archived. Archiving does not "hide" text - it is there in the archives for all to read. That is why it is called "archiving". But that discussion was concluded. hamiltonstone (talk) 09:56, 18 December 2010 (UTC)
Your recent edits
Hello. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Misplaced Pages pages that have open discussion, you must sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. You may also click on the signature button located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you. --SineBot (talk) 07:28, 19 December 2010 (UTC)
3RR
Please refrain from repeatedly undoing other people's edits. It appears you may be engaged in an edit war. The three-revert rule (3RR) prohibits making more than three reversions in a content dispute within a 24-hour period. Additionally, users who perform a large number of reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring, even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. Rather than reverting, please discuss disputed changes on the talk page. Thank you. I don't think you can have missed my 3RR warning on Talk:Shakespeare authorship question, but since you've ignored it, I post one here on your page as well, to make sure you see it (being a new user).

WP:ANI
Hello. This message is being sent to inform you that there currently is a discussion at Misplaced Pages:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Thank you. Bishonen | talk 00:04, 24 December 2010 (UTC).
WP:NPA
Please don't attack other editors. Comment on content, not on the contributor, as per WP:NPA. Misplaced Pages is not a battlefield, and your tone on Talk:Shakespeare authorship question is completely inappropriate. Example: you have recently accused an editor (Tom Reedy) of creating "a moral snakepit of prevarication that twists and skirts the guidelines for base partisan advantage." That's written as if you have no concept of the important wiki tenet of assuming good faith, which states that you're expected to assume, unless or until the opposite is proven, that people who work on the project are trying to help it, not hurt it. Avoid discussing the motives of others; discuss their actions and edits. If you continue to flout wiki culture and wiki policy and guidelines in your comments, not to mention ordinary civility in discourse, you may be blocked from editing Misplaced Pages. I've been cutting you some extra slack because you're a new editor, but if you wish to continue here, it's getting to be time you started to internalise our principles for civil interchange.
