Hello Eugeneoh and welcome to Wikipedia! Hope you like it here, and stick around.
Here are some tips to help you get started:
- To sign your posts (on talk pages, for example) use the '~' symbol. To insert just your name, type ~~~ (3 tildes), or, to insert your name and timestamp, use ~~~~ (4 tildes).
- Try the Tutorial, and feel free to experiment in the test area.
- If you need help, post a question at the Help Desk
- Follow the Wikipedia:Simplified Ruleset
- Eventually, you might want to read the Manual of Style and Policies and Guidelines.
- Remember Wikipedia:Neutral point of view
- Explore, be bold in editing pages, and, most importantly, have fun!
Good luck!
Welcome to Wikipedia.
Great contributions. I guess you're part of the Dartmouth class. How did you find it? We all hope you catch the vision and stay.
When you get a chance, drop us a note at Wikipedia:New user log to introduce yourself.
I see Meelar has already told you about signatures. We normally sign contributions to discussion pages as a courtesy, but not articles. Some more links:
- Welcome is a good place to start.
- Wikipedia:How does one edit a page gives editing help.
- Wikipedia:Manual of Style gives formatting info.
- Wikipedia:Policies and guidelines tell about the principles we operate on. It's important, but don't try to read it all now.
- Wikipedia:Help covers a broad range of useful topics.
- Wikipedia:Village pump is another place to ask questions.
- Wikipedia:Show preview explains how to double-check your edits before saving.
Please feel free to drop me a question on my talk page if there's anything you think I can help with. Andrewa 20:51, 23 Aug 2004 (UTC)
