Welcome to Wikipedia!
editHello, Scott Fillman. Welcome to Wikipedia! Thanks for your contributions. My name is Howicus, and I've been an editor here for some time. Here are a few links to pages you might find helpful:
- Introduction and Getting started
- Contributing to Wikipedia
- The five pillars of Wikipedia
- How to edit a page and How to develop articles
- How to create your first article
- Simplified Manual of Style
If you're working on creating a new article, you should take a look at this page on your first article. Also, this page has instructions on how to cite sources, complete with videos.
If all this Wikicode is a little overwhelming, this cheatsheet may help untangle it.
If you're looking for a tutorial of sorts, The Wikipedia Adventure is a good option.
And if you need more help, I'd recommend getting live help at the Wikipedia help chat channel: click here to join. Additionally, you could ask me on my talk page, try the Teahouse (a help page for new users) or click here to ask for help here on your talk page and a volunteer will visit you here shortly
Please remember to sign your messages on talk pages by typing four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically insert your username and the date. Again, welcome, and have fun editing! Howicus (Did I mess up?) 01:28, 29 March 2015 (UTC)
- Also, are you being paid to write the article DecoPac, Inc.? That's not prohibited or anything, but Wikipedia's Terms of Use require that you disclose if you're being paid to edit (see section "Paid contributions without disclosure"). Howicus (Did I mess up?) 01:28, 29 March 2015 (UTC)
Hi Howicus. Thanks for the heads-up.I am new to Wikipedia, so I am grateful for your help. I updated my page to disclose my paid contributions. I will be sure to update if any further changes take place. Also, I started a talk page to try to get others to contribue to the page, if possible. Scott Fillman (talk) 01:46, 29 March 2015 (UTC)
