Hi
Welcome to Wikipedia. Thanks for joining us and deciding to contribute. You will find lots of helpful stuff about us, what we are doing, and how to contribute at Wikipedia:Welcome, newcomers and Wikipedia:Help. You can ask questions at Wikipedia:Help desk.
I hope you have worked out by now that Wikipedia is an online project dedicated to building a free, online encyclopedia. While people obviously do talk to each other as part of this, we are not a chat forum. I suggest using other sites for general chat.
So, welcome again, and happy editing. DJ Clayworth 16:59, 22 Jun 2004 (UTC)
