Template-style welcome-message follows:

Hello, Beckr, welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay.

Here are a few pages that you might find interesting and helpful:

Editing: The concise cheatsheet, or the short introduction guide
Overview: The Wikipedia:Five pillars, condensed philosophy and policies
Wikipedia:Featured articles, the standard that all articles are trying to achieve (theoretically, eventually)
Our Wikipedia:Manual of Style
Help:Contents, the main help menu

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages (the discussion tab) using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your username and the date.

Don't be afraid of making mistakes, as all changes are kept, and problems can be easily reverted with the "history" tab of each page.

If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, or ask me on my talk page. Again, welcome! -- Quiddity (talk) 08:51, 17 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
