Welcome!

Hi, I'm Turangalila. I noticed your work on [[{{{article}}}]], and thought I'd welcome you to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions, and I hope you like our encyclopedia project and decide to stay.

Here are a few good links for newcomers:

Some other hints and tips:

  • I would recommend that you get a username by clicking sign up. You don't have to log in to read or edit articles on Wikipedia, but creating an account is quick, free and non-intrusive, requires no personal information, and has many benefits. As a registered user, you gain the use of an appropriate username of your choice, a personal watchlist where you can monitor articles that interest you, the ability to start new pages, and much more. Also, your IP address, Turangalila/WelcomeAnon, will no longer be visible to other users.
  • When using talk pages, please sign your name at the end of your messages by typing four tildes (~~~~). This will automatically produce your username (or IP address), and the date.
  • If you have any questions, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or place {{helpme}} on your talk page and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions.

Thanks again for contributing to Wikipedia. I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian.
