User talk:Sploggens
Welcome
[edit]Hello, Sploggens, and welcome to Wikipedia. Thanks for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the Newcomers help page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type {{helpme}} on your user page, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Here are a few good links for newcomers:
- How to edit a page, and the Editing tutorial, for basic editing info
- Picture tutorial - How to stick images into articles. Note that you can't hyperlink to images hosted elsewhere, you'll have to upload a copy to Wikipedia.
- Naming conventions - "How should I name my new article? Why can't I start it with a lowercase letter?"
- Manual of Style - this covers those details like "Is it okay to change from British to American spellings?"
- The Five Pillars of Wikipedia - this covers the ground rules like don't pick fights with people.
Two other details: First, you can sign your posts on discussion (non-article) pages by typing ~~~~. This produces a signature letting everyone else know who wrote the comment. Also, you should take note of the edit summary box that appears below the editing area: you can put a short description of your changes there. You may want to mark it as a minor edit if it's something like fixing a typo. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump, or ask me on my talk page. Happy editing! -- stillnotelf is invisible 02:39, 22 April 2006 (UTC)
