  • The use of a username of your choice
  • The ability to view all your contributions via a "My contributions" link
  • Your own user page
  • Your own talk page which, if you choose, also allows users to send you messages without knowing your e-mail address
  • The use of your own personal watchlist to which you can add articles that interest you
  • The ability to rename pages
  • The ability to customize the appearance and behavior of the website
  • The eligibility to become an administrator
  • The right to be heard in formal votes and elections, and on pages like votes for deletion

Suggestions[edit]

An editor using this IP address has been making many useful contributions recently, but there are two suggestions I'd like to make to avoid creating cleanup work for other editors:

  • Please do not add the entire lyrics of any song to an article. This is a clear copyright violation. Wikiquote is only permitted to list a "fair-use" sample of quotes from any copyrighted work. Even if a work is not copyrighted, Wikisource is the proper place to provide full transcriptions of such material.
  • Please review Wikiquote:Manual of style for style guidelines. (They are basically the same as Wikipedia's. We don't list all the details they do, but for the most part, we follow their practices.) In particular, please note that Wikiquote, like Wikipedia, uses sentence case for headings. Besides the first word in a heading, only proper nouns should be capitalized. Thus, it is "See also", not "See Also".

Let me know if you have any questions, and thank you for your cooperation. ~ Jeff Q (talk) 16:39, 18 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
