From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Welcome!

[edit]
Hi, , Welcome to Wikipedia!

Welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you enjoy contributing to the encyclopaedia and want to stay. Before getting too in-depth, you may want to read about the simplified ruleset. If you need help on how to title new articles check out the naming conventions, and for help on formatting your contributions visit the manual of style. If you need help feel free to browse the Help pages and the FAQ; plus, if you can't find your answer there, you can always ask at the Village Pump (for Wikipedia related questions) or the Reference Desk (for general questions). There's still more help at the Tutorial and Policy Library, and once you're sick of the minutiae of our rules you're welcome to explore the Community portal.

Additional tips

[edit]

Here are some extra tips to help you get around in Wikipedia:

  • If you want to play around with your new Wiki skills the Sandbox is for you.
  • You can sign your username using four tildes (~). It will also print the UTC date and time, and is usually used to sign your comments on talk pages. It is strongly recommended you familiarise yourself with its usage.
  • If you ever think a page or image should be deleted, please list it at the appropriate votes for deletion page. There is also a votes for undeletion page if you want to retrieve something that you think should not have been deleted.
  • If you're still entirely confused, or would like to get a better grasp of your Wikipedia skills, check out our convenient New contributors' help page.
  • If you would like something to do, you can have a look at the current open tasks.
