A belated welcome!

Here's wishing you a belated welcome to Wikipedia, Thorp12. I see that you've already been around a while and wanted to thank you for your contributions. Though you seem to have been successful in finding your way around, you may benefit from following some of the links below, which help editors get the most out of Wikipedia:
- Introduction
- The five pillars of Wikipedia
- How to edit a page
- Help pages
- How to write a great article
Also, when you post on talk pages you should sign your name using four tildes (~~~~); that should automatically produce your username and the date after your post.
I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! If you have any questions, feel free to leave me a message on my talk page, consult Wikipedia:Questions, or place {{helpme}} on your talk page and ask your question there.
Again, welcome! (✉→BWilkins←✎) 10:18, 18 February 2013 (UTC)
Welcome. May I be of assistance?
editHello Thorp12. My name is Senra. I saw your comment on our help-page. I recently helped a new editor Jonathan Chaplin (talk · contribs) successfully construct an article about his father, Roy Chaplin. If I can help you at all, please do leave me a message on my talk-page<----Click this link and start a "New Section"<--- Please always sign your posts (on talk-pages) by adding --~~~~ to the end of each post --Senra (talk) 11:11, 17 February 2013 (UTC)
- I arranged to have the page that you "spent hours creating ... about [your] great grandfather" copied to User:Thorp12/Bernard Andrew O'flynn. I suggest you ask me to help you work on the page. Until we can establish the notability of Bernard Andrew O'flynn using references to reliable sources (in the Wikipedia sense) we cannot publish that page as a Wikipedia article. I will assist you in finding such sources, if they exist --Senra (talk) 10:24, 18 February 2013 (UTC)
