Welcome back!
[edit]
Welcome back to Wikipedia, Welcome-back. I see that you've returned after a period away and wanted to thank you for your contributions. If you haven't seen them before, you may benefit from following some of the links below, which help editors get the most out of Wikipedia:
- Introduction
- The five pillars of Wikipedia
- How to edit a page
- Help pages
- How to write a great article
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 again and being a Wikipedian! If you have any questions, feel free to leave me a message on my talk page, consult Wikipedia:Questions, ask it at the help desk, or place {{helpme}} on your talk page and ask your question there.
Again, welcome back! ~~~~
