Welcome Mandy
editPleased to see that John got you started at editing the wiki. One place to practice is on the wiki page for your school or college. All the senior schools have articles but which will be the first to have a version in another language? Thrilled to see the level of interest as I'm an ex ICT teacher so I'm willing to give virtual help if you ask questions here Victuallers (talk) 08:07, 24 October 2012 (UTC)

Remember to always sign your posts on talk pages. You can do this either by clicking on the button on the edit toolbar or by typing four tildes (~~~~)
at the end of your post. This will automatically insert your signature, a link to this (your talk) page, and a timestamp.
To get some practice editing you can use a sandbox. You can create your own private sandbox for use any time. Perfect for working on bigger projects. Then for easy access in the future, you can put
{{My sandbox}}
on your user page. By the way, seeing as you haven't created a user page yet, simply click here to start it.GibraltarpediA
