Welcome!

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions, such as the one you made to Talk:Sustainable energy. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are some pages you might like to see:

• The five pillars of Wikipedia

You are welcome to continue editing articles without logging in, but many editors recommend that you create an account. Doing so is free, requires no personal information, and provides several benefits such as the ability to create articles. For a full outline and explanation of the benefits that come with creating an account, please see this page. If you edit without a username, your IP address (71.245.164.83) is used to identify you instead.

In any case, I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your comments on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your IP address (or username if you're logged in) and the date. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or ask your question and then place {{helpme}} before the question on this page. Again, welcome!

In a recent edit, you changed one or more words from one international variety of English to another. Because Wikipedia has readers from all over the world, our policy is to respect national varieties of English in Wikipedia articles.

For a subject exclusively related to the United Kingdom (for example, a famous British person), use British English. For something related to the United States in the same way, use American English. For something related to another English-speaking country, such as Canada, Australia, or New Zealand, use the variety of English used there. For an international topic, use the form of English that the original author used.

In view of that, please don't change articles from one version of English to another, even if you don't normally use the version in which the article is written. Respect other people's versions of English. They, in turn, should respect yours. Other general guidelines on how Wikipedia articles are written can be found in the Manual of Style. If you have any questions about this, you can ask me on my talk page or visit the help desk. Thank you. --John (talk) 02:20, 9 December 2010 (UTC)

• Sorry man. Not sure what article you refer to, or how I could have offended anyone. English is all the same to me, especially when editing a page that starts with en.wikipedia.org. You could at least have pointed out my mistake. --71.245.164.83 (talk) 23:41, 14 December 2010 (UTC)

• • You didn't try very hard to find out. Your only edit that day was this one. - David Biddulph (talk) 15:42, 23 February 2011 (UTC)

I've no idea what your question means, but Barnstars are semi-humorous awards given by wikipedians to eachother. See WP:Barnstar. Paul B (talk) 12:35, 6 January 2011 (UTC)
