Hello Joemahon, and welcome to Wikipedia! The first thing you should know is that we encourage you to be bold. Feel free to edit and improve articles, by clicking any 'edit' link.

If you'd like to test what Wikipedia can do, check out the sandbox - just type and save the page and your text will appear. That's the beauty of a Wiki.

For more information check out our tutorial - it's designed with newcomers in mind, as is the help section. If you'd like to get involved with current projects, have a look at the Community Portal. There are always tasks for users to do, ranging from copyediting to expanding stubs.

I hope you'll enjoy your time here, but be warned, it can become addictive! Feel free to message me, I'm more than happy to help. As an added tip, sign any message you post so users know that you've said it. To do so is delightfully simple, just use the wikicode ~~~~.

Once again, welcome! James Kendall [talk] 13:40, 14 February 2006 (UTC)Reply

Damn, yeah it is a small world! What did you study while you were there? James Kendall [talk] 13:56, 14 February 2006 (UTC)Reply

The Shakespeare portal needs any Shakespeare links to be added to it (edit here), so any corresponding articles. In the way of stubs, I'm sure there are loads of literary ones. My one tip is to find a random article. More often than not it'll be a stub (although there are boring ones about tiny US provinces - made by a bot, I'd ignore those), so a quick Google search may find some information :) James Kendall [talk] 14:12, 14 February 2006 (UTC)Reply
