User talk:John-Paul Sumner

Welcome!

Hello, John-Paul Sumner! Thanks so much for taking the time to do the Curator training.

Now that we've created your userpage and learned the basics, I hope that you'll stay logged in and have a go at editing some articles. If you're not feeling bold enough to write an article straight away, why not try a small edit first, or adding a link? Don't worry about being perfect, Wiki is a constantly evolving entity. Fortunately there's a whole team of editors just like you who can help.

Welcome! Now have some cake...

You can't break Wikipedia, but in case you're still nervous here are some pages that you might find helpful:

• Getting Started guide for Galleries, Libraries, Archives & Museums
• The Wikipedia Adventure - learn to edit Wiki in under an hour
• Is your topic notable enough for an article?
• Be Bold!
• Don't let grumpy users scare you off.
• Learn from others
• How to write a great article
• A simplified manual of style

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Remember, if you are writing on a talk page, please sign your name using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name and the date.

If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or place {{helpme}} on your talk page and ask your question there. See you soon! Lirazelf (talk) 10:50, 14 May 2015 (UTC)

Hi there! As you're a Wikimedian in Scotland I'd like to invite you to the 6th Glasgow Wikimeet on Thursday 18th June - hope to see you there for some chat about all things Wiki and a bite to eat/drink. Take a look at the event page and let me know if you can make it! Lirazelf (talk) 16:19, 3 June 2015 (UTC)
