Before asking a question

• Search first. Wikipedia is huge, and you can probably find the answer to your question quicker by looking for it yourself. Use the search box on the left for searching in Wikipedia. If there is no relevant information on Wikipedia, the Internet is a great resource too, so also try a search engine such as Google.
• Do not start debates or post diatribes. The reference desk is not a soapbox.

How to ask a question

• Include a title and a question. It is easier for our volunteers if question formatting is consistent.
• Be specific. Clearly state your question and include any information that might help to understand the context (for example, a link to an online resource).
• Do not provide contact information, such as your e-mail address, home address, or telephone number. Be aware that the content on Wikipedia is extensively copied to many websites; making your e-mail address public here may make it very public throughout the Internet.
• Sign your question. Type ~~~~ (four tildes) at the end of your question, to let the reference desk know who is asking.
• Be patient. Your question probably will not be answered right away, so come back later and check for a response. Questions are normally answered at the same page on which they were asked. A complete answer to your question may be developed over a period of up to four days.
