I'm Riana, and I noticed that you've been here for a while, but no-one's welcomed you yet (sorry!), so I thought I'd drop you a note. We do have a lot of users, and are currently working on 6,934,775 articles, so things can be a little intimidating... but don't worry! We love to help out, and we'll try our best to make your stay here as comfortable as possible.
Here are a few links I found useful when I first arrived here:-
Template:Multicol
- Be Bold!
- Don't let grumpy users scare you off
- Meet other new users
- Policies, guidelines, and rules
- How to create a page, edit a page and write a great article
- A handy tutorial, and a picture tutorial
- Writing well
- Learn from others
- Play nicely with others
- Contribute, Contribute, Contribute!
- Tell us about yourself
- Be inspired by our finest!
Template:Multicol-end You should sign your name on talk pages, discussions and votes by typing ~~~~; our software automatically converts it to your username and the date. Also, if you don't want to jump right into editing articles right now, why not check out the sandbox? Feel free to make test edits there.
I know it's a lot of information, but there are two more things I recommend you take note of while editing Misplaced Pages - cite references wherever possible, and avoid allowing personal biases interfere with your editing.
I hope you enjoy editing and being a Wikipedian - I definitely do. Although we all make mistakes, please keep in mind what Misplaced Pages is not. If you have any questions or problems, leave me a message on my talk page, and I'll try my best to help. Otherwise, please come to the New contributors' help page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type {{helpme}} on your user page, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions.
We hope you stick around, and make sure you enjoy yourself! Cheers, riana_dzasta 11:30, 15 February 2007 (UTC)
