	Welcome to Wikipedia!
Hey there, Somebody9973! I'm glad you decided to register a new account here on Wikipedia. We're always looking for new editors to help improve the project, because believe me, there's always something to be done! Wikipedia often seems very large to newcomers (it did to me, at least), so I've put together this little guide to help you get started. I hope this helps, and as always, happy editing! *Hersfold* ^(t/a/c) 02:37, 14 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Some Quick Tips Don't be afraid to make mistakes - Be Bold! That's how things get done, and there is always someone around to help you out if you need it. Remember to sign your posts on talk pages, like this one. You can click this button on your editing toolbar, or just type in four tildes (~~~~) That way, people know who they're talking to and who to go to if they have a question for you. Take some time to read a few of the help files, especially if you're new to Wikimarkup. Knowing the basics can save a lot of time and frustration down the road. I've provided some of these pages, as well as some common policies, at right. If you ever have a question, there are plenty of places to ask! You can come talk to me, add the code `{{helpme\|your question}}` to your talk page here, post a question on the talk page of the article you have a question about, or post something on the Help Desk or Reference Desk. Check out the ways to get involved below - each of these suggestions are good ways for a new editor to get involved in the Wikipedia project. Most importantly, get out there and edit!

Signpost Userbox?

{{helpme}}

Does a userbox about the Wikipedia Signpost exist? If not, I might create one.... The Piano Man (talk) 15:47, 17 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

There's one for users who write for the Signpost, but I don't see anything else of that sort. Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • ^{(Broken clamshells•Otter chirps)} 16:27, 17 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Normal distribution

Apparently in this edit you failed to realize that the e that should be there was already there, since exp(x) means e^x, so it's correct either way. But your next edit, which you called a "simplification", was horribly wrong. You changed this:

{\frac {1}{\sigma }}\varphi \left({\frac {x-\mu }{\sigma }}\right)

to this:

{\frac {\varphi (x-\mu )}{\sigma ^{2}}}

That's nowhere near the same thing. Michael Hardy (talk) 21:31, 27 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The phi function

{{helpme}}

Does anyone know where, if anywhere, on Wikipedia the function $\varphi (x)$ is defined?

$\varphi (x)$ = Numberwang. No, seriously, you could ask at the reference desk. Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • ^{(Broken clamshells•Otter chirps)} 21:21, 5 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

No problem. Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • ^{(Broken clamshells•Otter chirps)} 21:34, 5 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hi; I don't know if you ever got an answer to this, but it's defined in the section where you seem to have encountered it, at Normal distribution#Probability density function. Hope that helps! --_{tiny plastic} Grey Knight ⊖ 13:10, 11 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

9973

Just to let you know your userpage into states that "9973 is the smallest prime number less than 10000", I think you mean 9973 is the largest prime less than 10000. Rambo's Revenge (talk) 14:35, 19 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
