Adoption is a program on Wikipedia for experienced editors to adopt new editors. I am a graduate of an adoption program, and I hope that more new users will join the program.
When I was Adopted:
editI was originally adopted by Giggyback when he was still G1ggy. And graduated his adoption program with an 8.5 out of 11 on his quiz thingie. He calls it Hell. Don't worry, I won't be that bad. It'll be worse
