Welcome!

[edit]
Hello, Damezi, Welcome to Wikipedia!
I hope you like working here and want to continue. If you need help on how to name new articles, look at Naming Conventions, and for help on formatting the pages visit the Manual of Style. If you need general help, look at Help and the FAQ, and if you can't find your answer there, check the Village pump (for Wikipedia related questions) or the Reference Desk (for general questions). There's still more help at the Tutorial and the Policy Library. Also, don't forget to visit the Community Portal — and if you have any more questions after that, feel free to post them on my New-Users' Talk Page.
Additional tips:
Here are some extra tips to help you get around Wikipedia:
  • If you made any edits before you got an account, you might be interested in assigning those to your username.
  • If you want to play around with your new Wiki skills, try the Sandbox.
  • Click on the Edit button on a page, and look at how other editors did what they did.
  • You can sign your name using three tildes, like this: ~~~. If you use four, you can add a datestamp too. Always sign comments on Talk pages, never sign Articles.
  • You might want to add yourself to the New User Log
  • If your first language isn't English, try Wikipedia:Contributing to articles outside your native language
Happy editing!

A, an

[edit]

Just saw your edit of A, an, where you've added a very specific clause regarding the demise of an before words starting with H.

Can you give some examples of how your edit applies? While this is entirely likely to be ignorance on my part, I cannot think of any dialects of English in which H normally goes unpronounced at the beginning of a word - Yet examples dialects in which the use of an in this context spring to mind easily, despite their sounding of H (Many north american dialects, a couple of dialects in great britain...)

I'd be really interested to know if I've just misunderstood your ideas on this subject or if there's something I've completely missed! ADMcG 08:49, 3 Apr 2005 (UTC)

I noticed your comments on my article. I'm not sure I really understand the whole "windan" issue -- perhaps you could read the OED's entry on go and help me out there... -- Zantastik talk 07:31, 13 Jun 2005 (UTC)
