Depends on what you want to do. If it's article creation, I'd hold off for a little while. I can tell you what I did, way back in the wilds of time when I started here... :-)

What I recommend is beginning with small edits - typo corrections, punctuation fixes, that sort of thing - to get a feel for the formatting. See an article with a title that requires italics? Go in and italicize it. See a name that's wrong? Correct it. Use the preview button to make sure you're doing things right. Doing those sorts of edits helps you to learn the ins and outs of formatting, and makes it easier for you to figure it out in future. Once you've got the hang of that, you can move on to larger things.

One tip: if you hate formatting references (as I do), here's a tool that will do it for you: https://tools.wmflabs.org/refill/ Doesn't pick up every bare link, and you do have to review before hitting "save", but it's great for saving tons of work.

And have fun with it - I do. (Some might say too much fun...)

I hope that helps for starters - please let me know if you have any other questions! --Ser Amantio di NicolaoChe dicono a Signa?Lo dicono a Signa. 19:53, 22 August 2015 (UTC)Reply

David Helpling article

edit

The article David Helpling has still not solidly established WP:Notability. See Wikipedia:Notability (people) and particularly the section known as WP:AUTHOR for the relevant criteria. The article needs additional citations to independent reliable secondary sources. If you know of such sources, such as reviews or profiles in print or online magazines with good reputations (not blogs or fan sites), or newspaper coverage beyond concert or release listings, please list such sources on Talk:David Helpling so that they can be included. Otherwise someone may well nominate the article for deletion, and it might be deleted after a consensus discussion. DES (talk) 14:49, 25 August 2015 (UTC)Reply

I will try to take a look and see if I can be of any help. I make no promises, especially as I'm having some heavy-duty computer troubles right now that seem to leave just about anything I can do dead in the water at the moment. But I will try to get some ideas together. --Ser Amantio di NicolaoChe dicono a Signa?Lo dicono a Signa. 16:14, 27 August 2015 (UTC)Reply
