I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Also, when you post on talk pages you should sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); that should automatically produce your username and the date after your post. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or place {{helpme}} on your talk page and ask your question there. Again, welcome!

Unsure of what to do...[edit]

{{helpme}} Yesterday I noticed that Alaoupi went and created a page with one section on it titled "Disaster Archaeology." However the page they created it on is an IP's user page. Is this wrong, and if so where should I report it? Shotgun5559 (Talk) (Contrib) 17:39, 20 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I should note that I didn't do anything yesterday because I was hoping someone else noticed and would do something about it. Shotgun5559 (Talk) (Contrib) 17:43, 20 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Well, often new articles are started on a section on a user's pages but it's weird that they've started an article on someone else's page. I'm sure there's a legitimate reason why, maybe because that IP address could be Alaoupi's IP address or Alaoupi is helping out the IP with an article. I will try and get others to help you, because I'm not unsure either! Chevy monte carlo 18:02, 20 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Ok, well I asked about your problem on the IRC help channel and one other user agreed that it's probably more likely to have been placed there by mistake or if the user was helping the IP user to work on the page. I think perhaps you should just leave it but keep checking on the updates, and if you are still concerned or if you have any other question(s) please ask either on your talk page or on the IRC channel which I linked to above. I hope I helped you. Chevy monte carlo 18:18, 20 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Alright thank you very much! I watchlisted the page as soon as I saw it, and I'll regularly check it out. Shotgun5559 (Talk) (Contrib) 18:20, 21 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
