Welcome!

Hello, Newsgirl, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for joining our project. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. First thing: be bold! Editors are always happy to correct or revert mistakes and discuss changes with which they disagree. Here are some links that can help you edit better:

• The tutorial
• How to edit a page
• How to write a great article

And for more detailed information:

• Help pages - the instruction manual, contains everything you could possibly want to know
• The five pillars of Wikipedia - our principles, or how to get on with other editors
• Manual of Style - how to format articles, where to place pictures, and other stylistic matters.

All of this information can be daunting, but if you have a question and can't find the answer, you can always ask me on my talk page or go to Wikipedia:Where to ask a question. One last thing: please sign your name when leaving messages for others on article and user talk pages using (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name and the date. I hope you enjoy editing!   --Sam Blanning (formerly Malthusian) (talk) 11:55, 11 March 2006 (UTC)
