If you have any questions, you can ask them at the water cooler or to anyone on the Welcommittee, or ask me on my Talk page. Again, welcome!

Well, now that the automated stuff is over, welcome to Wikinews!

Much of the formatting on that article was done by User:Dcabrilo, just to say :-)

Good first article :-) You'll get the hang of WN easily, especially with all those helpful links up ^

Oh, and thanks for telling me about the VFD. I'll check it out soon.

Again, welcome to to WN. Hope you'll stay :-) SoLando 07:06, 1 August 2005 (UTC)

I am totally stunned. My first article on Wikinews made it to the front page in no time flat. Of course, I'm sure it'll get pushed off by King Fahd, as it should, but still. Wow. --DavidConrad 10:39, 1 August 2005 (UTC)
