A belated welcome!
[edit]Here's wishing you a belated welcome to Wikipedia, Kiwi Smoothie. I see that you've already been around a while and wanted to thank you for your contributions. Though you seem to have been successful in finding your way around, 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
- Contributing to Wikipedia
- How to edit a page
- Help pages
- How to write a great article
- Editor's index to Wikipedia
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 and being a Wikipedian! If you have any questions, feel free to leave me a message on my talk page, consult Wikipedia:Questions, or place {{helpme}} on your talk page and ask your question there.

Abbreviated edit summaries
[edit]Just a tip: you can abbreviate the edit summary to "wl" if you just added a wikilink; you also can mark it minor. There's a handy list of common abbreviations at Wikipedia:Edit summary legend. Cheers! Brianhe (talk) 16:02, 20 July 2015 (UTC)
- Hello Brianhe, thank you for your advice. In the future I will us this "shortcut" :-) Kiwi Smoothie (talk) 12:47, 22 July 2015 (UTC)
Linking in articles
[edit]Hi Kiwi Smoothie, Thank you for editing wikipedia articles but please read WP:OVERLINKING which says: "...the following are not usually linked: Everyday words understood by most readers in context." It seems to me that you are doing just that at the moment. - Takeaway (talk) 14:47, 15 April 2016 (UTC)
- Hello Takeaway, thanks for the advise. I will have that in mind.
- Greetings Kiwi Smoothie (talk) 14:52, 15 April 2016 (UTC)
