Welcome to Wikipedia, the greatest encyclopedia on Earth!

You seem to be off to a good start. Hopefully you will soon join the vast army of Wikipediholics.

Dog articles work

Hi and welcome and thanks for your edits to assorted dog pages. Always glad to have someone else interested in dogs. You might check out the Wikipedia:WikiProject Dog breeds for more information.

Question for you: When you added this Image:Sheltie.jpg, you didn't note whether the permission given was GFDL or public domain or some other license. To be used in wikipedia, it needs to be freely distributable; most of my photos are marked with the text {{GFDL}}. Can you please clarify? Thanks! Elf | Talk 21:52, 23 Jan 2005 (UTC)
