Kingshadow, welcome to Train Spotting World

If this is the first time you've used a wiki you may have a few questions. Most of the answers are obvious. To learn to edit, why not just dive in? At the foot of the editing window there is a help link. This opens in a new window and gives you a good overview of wiki syntax and stuff.

There are very few rules here. The best summary is:

• Respect other people's Copyright
• Behave to others as you would like them to behave to you
• Do no harm

This is not an encyclopaedia. Pages here do not need to comply with encyclopaedic notions or citations or neutrality. Just dive in and start.

It's always worth having a look at Station announcements every so often, too.

One of the first things you might want to do is to place {{talktome}} at the top of your talk page (this page) above this welcome message. Taking heed of what it says will make it much easier for you to follow discussions on talk pages.

And while you browse the site, and especially when you've created something truly worthwhile, why not Digg and also tag on del.icio.us – the tools are in the left hand menu. The more Diggs (etc) we have the better, because Diggs and del.icio.us links add to our findability. The best way to find out about them is to click on the tool. Each is different and each gives you the chance to "rate" any article here. Or anywhere else come to that!

"Snap", the little link preview window, has options in it that you can tailor to meet your needs. If you like it, stay with the defaults. If not then you can turn it off easily

Best yet you have a Spotting World Blog if you want it. Have a look at your User page. There is a link to let you create your blog. This is part of what Spotting World does for you. Or just go to blogs.spottingworld.com. You can use your blog for any lawful purpose. It's yours to do with as you like. Anyone can read your blog once you create it, but only you can write to it.

There is also a live chat room - see the left hand menu

Any questions, please ask any user on their talk page.

And please tell all your friends about us

Thomas the Tank Engine Merchandise

Hello. I noticed recently that you made several rather inaccurate edits to the Thomas & Friends Merchandise. While I'm sure you had good intentions, Train Spotting World does NOT approve of spamming! As you have no priors, I shall let you off with a warning. Be warned, however, that future innacurate edits will lead to consequences. Thank you for joining Train Spotting World. And we hope you will enjoy your time here. Welcome aboard and keep out of trouble. --Dalek X 23:11, 20 September 2007 (UTC)

Final Warning

Kingshadow, this is your final warning. Several inaccuracies have been used. As said above, though you may have had good intentions, spamming is not allowed here. Further sightings of spam shall lead to you being blocked from editing for a time of which the moderator who blocks you shall decide. Thank you. --Dalek X 17:55, 29 September 2007 (UTC)

Bachmann Thomas and Friends

Please do not add speculative or 'ideas' information to the Thomas articles. Although TSW is not intended to be an encyclopedia, there is no point including information about Thomas merchandising ranges if it is not factually correct. (If you can provide suitable references, then that is another matter!)

If you must have a list of ideas for Bachmann models, please add it to the appropriate page in the 'Fan Fiction' namespace. There is plenty of space for everyone to play at TSW, but we have to have some basic rules.

Thank you

Further to EdJogg's comments, DalekX put you on your last warning a while ago. Any more of the above, and I WILL block you for a period of time. Whilst contributors and information are welcome, please make sure it is either true and has references, or is in the Fan Fiction area, prefixed with FanFic:.

If you have any problems please contact me.

Thanks,
