Morning CrmsnTydGrl, and Welcome! Your Userpage can be anything you wish, you can write it to look like an article biography of yourself, it's generally the hub for people to contact you at, see my friend L'Aquatique's Userpage. Or the Wikipedia founder: User:Jimbo Wales. In general, it's best NOT to use your userpage as a blog, or anything similar, like MySpace. Simply decorate it as you wish, and enjoy Wikipedia! - [Vague] 16:29, 14 January 2009 (UTC)

Userboxes

I am so glad you can come and be a part of Wikipedia! One of the many fun things users can do is put userboxes on their info page. That way, they can let everyone know their interests in an organized way.

Looking at your user page, I saw a few ones I might recommend:

• User:Tom Danson/IWFL-Tigers (for obvious reasons)
• User:The Sports Diatribe/NCAA-ALABAMA (for other obvious reasons)

I also think the Harry Potter section would be your cup of tea as well! Glad I could enlighten you on one of my favorite parts of being a Wikipedian! Tom Danson (talk) 21:07, 9 July 2009 (UTC)
