Hello, Quizmoquanto, welcome to Wikipedia and thank you for your contributions! I'm Magister Scienta, one of the many editors here, and I hope you decide to stay here and help contribute to Wikipedia. Thanks for your weighing in on the Madison talk page.

Here are some links to get you started:

    Introduction to Wikipedia
    The five pillars of Wikipedia
    How to edit a page
    Editing tutorial
    Help pages
    Manual of Style
    How to write a great article
    What Wikipedia is not
    The Basics of Wikicode

And here are some Do's and Don'ts:

    DO be bold
    DO assume good faith
    DO be civil
    DO keep cool!
    DO maintain a neutral point of view
    DON'T spam
    DON'T infringe copyright
    DON'T get blocked
    DON'T vandalize

If you need further help, you can:

    Ask a question

Or even:

    Ask an experienced editor to "adopt" you

Alternatively, drop a note on my talk page or type {{helpme}} here on your talk page and someone will try to help.

If you enjoy being here, there are many ways you can contribute to Wikipedia. Here are a few ideas:

    Fight vandalism
    Be a WikiFairy or a WikiGnome
    Help contribute to articles
    Perform maintenance tasks
    Become a member of a project that interests you
    Help design new templates

Remember to always sign your name 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 username, a link to your talk page, and a timestamp.

As always though, the best way to learn about something is to experience it. Go and explore Wikipedia, the more time you spend on it, the more you'll know, and don't forget to have some fun!
