Here's wishing you a belated welcome to Misplaced Pages, Playalake. I see that you've already been around a while 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 Misplaced Pages:
- Introduction
- The five pillars of Misplaced Pages
- Contributing to Misplaced Pages
- How to edit a page
- Help pages
- How to write a great article
- Editor's index to Misplaced Pages
Also, when you post on talk pages you should sign your name 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 below, consult Misplaced Pages:Questions, or place {{helpme}} on your talk page and ask your question there.

Using article talk pages
Hey Playalake. Editing WP is pretty straightforward. Please do read WP:TPG -- article talk pages are, very simply, for holding concrete discussions about improving articles. If there is a reference that isn't cited that you think should be, simply propose it, and content you would like to see generated from it, on the Talk page. Please don't discuss other editors, the topic generally, or general procedures. That is not what article Talk pages are for. If you have general questions about editing WP you can ask an editor at their talk page; user Talk pages are for non-specific discussions.
As you noted, you came to WP in response to the Change.org petition. Please note that every time you edit WP (including commenting at Talk pages), and click save, you are agreeing to the Terms of Use of Misplaced Pages, which obligate you to edit and behave according to Misplaced Pages's policies and guidelines. When you edit here, you are not an "outsider" you are a Wikipedian.
The policies and guidelines are explained somewhat via the links above - you have to click and read and click through and read yet more. If you would like me to provide you with a summary of the policies and guidelines (I generated one to help people in a hurry get their feet on the ground more quickly) please let me know, and I will post it here. You can reply here - I will see it. Jytdog (talk) 19:54, 4 January 2017 (UTC)
