Welcome!
editI hope you like this place — I sure do — and want to stay. Before getting too in-depth, you may want to read about the five pillars of Wikipedia. If you need help on how to title new articles check out the naming conventions, and for help on formatting the pages visit the manual of style. If you need help look at Wikipedia:Help and the FAQ , plus if you can't find your answer there, check the Village Pump (for Wikipedia related questions) or the Reference Desk (for general questions)! There's still more help at the Tutorial and Policy Library. Plus, don't forget to visit the Community Portal. And if you have any more questions after that, feel free to post them on my user talk page.
Additional tips
editHere's some extra tips to help you get around in the 'pedia!
- If you want to play around with your new Wiki skills the Sandbox is for you.
- You can sign your name using three tildes (~). If you use four, you can add a datestamp too.
- You may want to add yourself to the new user log.
- If you ever think a page or image should be deleted, please list it at the votes for deletion page. There is also a votes for undeletion page if you want to retrieve something that you think should not have been deleted.
- If you're still entirely confused, or would like to get a better grasp of your wikipedia skills, and you have an IRC client (or don't mind getting one), check out the Bootcamp. It's not what it sounds like, but it is fun and can help you with your editing skills.
- If you're bored and want to find something to do, try the Random page button in the sidebar, or check out the Open Task message in the Community Portal.
Happy Wiki-ing!
editLanguage proposal
editAbout your proposal at Wikipedia:Naming conventions (language policy)—you might want to rethink a policy that would require us to change (and substantially lengthen) thousands of article titles.
It would also be helpful if you could identify some examples of the types of changes you propose, and articles where you believe this policy would be useful. (Have you been editing under another account name until recently? Do you hope to resolve a conflict through this policy?) TenOfAllTrades(talk) 19:03, 28 October 2005 (UTC)
- Have you seen the discussion at Wikipedia talk:Naming conventions (language policy)? Also I have since proposed a new and broader language policy at Wikipedia:Language policy. Dass 10:36, 6 November 2005 (UTC)
