  Thanks for contributing to the article Fifi Fiavi Kwetey( Ghanaian Politician). However, one of Wikipedia's core policies is that material must be verifiable, by being clearly attributed to reliable sources, preferably using inline citations. Please help by adding more sources to the article you edited, and/or by clarifying how the sources already given support the material (see here for how to do inline referencing). Thanks! P.S. If you need any help, you can look at Help:Contents/Editing Wikipedia or ask at Wikipedia:New contributors' help page, or just ask me. Thank you.

Welcome to Wikipedia!

Hello, Rasford Konadu, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are some tips that you might find helpful:

  • Link to other articles with [[double square brackets]]
  • Add pictures from Wikimedia Commons using [[double square brackets with|thumb for thumbnail|Left, right or center so it knows where to go|a meaningful caption|alt=a description for blind people]]
    • Example [[Image:Chocolate chip cookies.jpg|thumb|right|Wiki biscuits are guaranteed zero calories! ]]
    • Click here for an exercise in adding images to articles.
  • Now you know how to add pictures to wikipedia articles, why not add your own? This shows you articles that are near you. Is there one without a picture or where you could take a much better picture? In many countries modern buildings are still protected by copyright, but otherwise, or in the UK, this is the upload page on Wikimedia Commons.
  • Add headings with ==double equal signs==
    • If an article has sections two editors can edit different sections simultaneously without edit conflicts. Add enough sections and you get a contents section.
    • Here are articles where you can practice adding sections when you've finished splitting an article into sections you can remove the code {{sections|date=Month year}} from the top of the page.
      • ===subheadings are similar===
  • When you add information to Wikipedia please sumamrize things in your own words, and tell us where you got the information from in the following format <ref>[The webpage, book or magazine you are citing, a description, the word "retrieved" and today's date]</ref>
  • If you find unreferenced information on Wikipedia that you consider dubious or unlikely, first try to reference it with a search on the internet. If you know it is wrong, correct it, if you can't find a source then {{fact}} adds the famous [citation needed]. If, after a week no-one has referenced the information, feel free to remove it.
  • ''Double single quotes'' gives you Italic and '''triple quotes'' Bold.

Many Wikipedians organise themselves by subject area, we have hundreds of WikiProjects ranging from Arts to Zoology, and I'm sure there will be ones that fit your interests. A good place to look for them is Category:WikiProjects by area, alternatively look at the talkpages of articles you are interested in and see which Wikiprojects have placed templates there.

Please remember to sign your messages on talk pages by typing four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically insert your username and the date. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, visit The Teahouse, ask me on my talk page, or ask for help on your talk page, and a volunteer should respond shortly. Again, welcome!
