There are many ways you can contribute to Wikipedia. Here are a few ideas:
  Fight vandalism
  Be a WikiFairy or a WikiGnome
  Help contribute to articles
           
  Perform maintenance tasks
  Become a member of a project that interests you

Remember to always sign your posts on talk pages. You can do this either by clicking on the button on the edit toolbar or by typing four tildes (~~~~) at the end of your post. This will automatically insert your signature, a link to this (your talk) page, and a timestamp.

The best way to learn about something is to experience it. Explore, learn, contribute, and don't forget to have some fun!
To get some practice editing you can use a sandbox. You can create your own private sandbox for use any time. Perfect for working on bigger projects. Then for easy access in the future, you can put {{My sandbox}} on your user page. By the way, seeing as you haven't created a user page yet, simply click here to start it.

While your contributions are appreciated, I must inform you that your sandbox is for working on content related to improving the encyclopedia only. Use of it for content unrelated to Wikipedia, such as online song contests, is not permitted. Please review the Wikipedia:User pages guidelines and Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not policy, in particular WP:UP#NOT and WP:NOTFREEWEBHOST. Thank you, CT Cooper · talk 17:15, 4 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

You seem to be ignoring me. Therefore, I'm locking your sandbox until I get an answer to my enquiries. CT Cooper · talk 00:44, 9 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Oh dear, I had no idea. Thank you, for the wake up call. I'm sincerely sorry for misusing Wikipedia, not to worry I shall find an alternative. Much thanks for your co-operation. Shadowtiger97 (talk) 06:23, 9 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
