A belated welcome!
Here's wishing you a belated welcome to Wikipedia, Waldhorn. I see that you've already been around awhile and wanted to thank you for your contributions. Though you seem to have been successful in finding your way around, you may benefit from following some of the links below, which help editors get the most out of Wikipedia:
- Introduction

- How to write a great article
Also, when you post on talk pages you should sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); that should automatically produce your username and the date after your post.
I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! If you have any questions, feel free to leave me a message on my talk page, consult Wikipedia:Questions, or place {{helpme}} on your talk page and ask your question there.

Hatnotes
WP:SIMILAR doesn't apply when "one (article) is disambiguated and the other not". So a hatnote would be appropriate for a page entitled Thomas Hampson or even Tom Hampson, but not Thomas Hampson (baritone), Thomas Hampson (politician) etc. An exception would be if there was an article called Thomas Hampson (sportman), as it is ambiguous and the reader could well have been looking for Tommy Hampson, the middle distance runner.
In this case of Tommy Hampson and Thomas Hampson (baritone), the subjects are unrelated, so someone who ends up on a page about an American opera singer is not going to be after a British runner. Hope that helps. Cheers.
