Welcome to AboutUs.org!

Hello Harold, my name is Kristina.

I noticed your contributions to UWEB:Status/HaroldRyan - it's great to see you joining in on this Consensus Poll! I just found this great Facebook application that does a wikiHow article of the day and added it to my profile.

I'm excited that you've joined AboutUs.org, a wiki resource that builds upon the knowledge and edits of people like you and I. Welcome! Would you care to add a little bit about yourself on your personal page so the community may get to know you? (You can see mine as an example at User:KristinaWeis.) Let me know if you have any questions along the way - I'd love to hear from you!). You can contact me in a variety of ways, the best being to leave a message on my talk page via the "talk" link in my signature below.

Sure thing, there's no precise definition of what an active member is but essentially it is someone who makes constructive edits for a while as opposed to someone that creates an account and just edits one day and bounces off the wiki. It can be self-elected or a category that gets added to your page when another active member thinks it's fitting. That probably doesn't answer your question, but it's a pretty gray area on purpose I think. It is different from an admin/sysop, although these will typically all be considered active members as well. I suppose the relative hierarchy goes from active member to community member to admin or sysop. KristinaWeis | **talk** 14:30, 19 October 2007 (PDT)

Nice to see a familiar, friendly face :), as I log on to look up links added to wikiHow articles to see if they are sources or spam. Hope all is well. Happy Halloween! NicoleWillson 17:47, 31 October 2007 (PDT)
