Welcome to Wikipedia!

Hello Leizmonk, welcome to Wikipedia! I am a fellow obie, along with alxndr who replied to your comment at Talk:Oberlin College. I agree that we should have a mention of that. I will add it to my list of projects to undertake. My current project, once I start working on my projects again, is the article on Garfield High School (Seattle). Anyway, here are some tips for getting around on the wiki:

First, follow the Five Pillars of Wikipedia
Take a look at the Simplified Ruleset.
Read the Tutorial, How to edit a page, and the Manual of Style.
Find out how to revert, move and merge pages.
Learn what the proper tags to place on stubs (short articles) are.
Learn how Articles for deletion works.
Add yourself to the New user log and a regional notice board.
Ask questions at the Village pump or Help desk.
Use the Show preview button.
Provide an Edit summary.
Read the Picture tutorial for help with images and remember to add the correct image copyright tag to any images you upload.
Create a User page.
Be bold.
Ignore all rules.
If you're ready for the complete list of Wikipedia documentation, there's also Wikipedia:Topical index.

If you feel a change is needed, feel free to make it yourself! Wikipedia is a wiki, so anyone (yourself included) can edit any article by following the Edit this page link. Wikipedia convention is to be bold and not be afraid of making mistakes. If you're not sure how editing works, have a look at How to edit a page, or try out the Sandbox to test your editing skills.

If, for some reason, you are unable to fix a problem yourself, feel free to ask someone else to do it. Wikipedia has a vibrant community of contributors who have a wide range of skills and specialties, and many of them would be glad to help. There are also the help pages for self-help and the village pump and IRC Channels, where you are more than welcome to ask for assistance. You should also feel free to ask me on my Talk page.

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and vote pages using three tildes, like this: ~~~. Four tildes(~~~~) produces your name and the current date. Please do not add this signature to encyclopedia articles you may edit, however, even if you have created them. Wikipedia articles are owned by the community, not by any one person. Again, welcome! —WAvegetarian•(talk) 10:41, 9 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
