The Barnstar of Diplomacy
I've noticed that in your contributions you tend to content yourself with making improvements to various articles in very non-showy ways, and helping out new Wikipedians when they have questions. You thought you could get away with it without being noticed, didn't you! Well, that won't stand. For all you help in many areas, I award you this shiny trinket. All the best, – Quadell (talk) 20:13, 27 July 2011 (UTC)

Advanced details

[edit]

Basically read the entire MediaWiki Handbook, which has four large sections:

Also melt your brain on the Editor's index, which gives a pretty full description of what is possible on Wikipedia.

A solid introduction to Wikipedia editing could easily fill up a year of college-level work. And that would be a fun course to teach. But on Wikipedia, everything you see is built by and for people who self-educate. I suggest that you take some notes on a user sub-page with links to the manuals you are reading. Also see the {{Google custom}} template, which has a table of examples which link to a list of places I have found handy for answering questions that come up in the course of Wikipedia editing (I wrote the table of examples, so I put in the links I use routinely when looking up answers to questions on the Help desk).
