Welcome!

Hello, Pacific12! Thank you so much for coming to the Napier Connect Editathon yesterday - it was great to meet you all!

Now that we've created your userpage and learned the basics, I hope that you'll stay logged in and have a go at editing some articles. If you're not feeling bold enough to write an article straight away, why not try a small edit first, or adding a link? (You could of course join the fine and Noble people of the Guild of Copy Editors...) Don't worry about being perfect, Wiki is a constantly evolving entity. Fortunately there's a whole team of editors just like you who can help.

Welcome! Now have some cake...

If I can help, just ask me on my talk page, or place {{helpme}} on your talk page and ask your question there. See you soon!

Oh and...

A couple of things I thought might interest you... To keep up to date about Wikimedia events happening throughout Scotland, to learn more about ScotWiki projects, or to publicise your own ScotWiki event or project, join the ScotWiki Mailing List! To help tackle the gender gap on Wiki, you could join the Gender Gap Task Force, or the Gender Gap mailing list
