Being a member of the welcoming committee on Wikipedia I encourage you to help Wikipedia in any way you can to increase human
knowledge. No matter how small you may know about a topic, check it out on Wiki, if you find it, add to it or make changes backed with references. If there is no
article on that topic, why not start it, with time others will add to it and it may even make the featured articles list. Furthermore, I encourage you to aim to be a member of the [confirmed users] as this will greatly improve your Wiki experience. You can do this by making at least 10 edits on Wikipedia and remaining on Wiki for four (4) days. Check out this page for tips.Crosstemplejay 16:07, 13 April 2011 (UTC) crosstemplejay
