Welcome!
Please join us for the next Wikipedia:Bootcamp every night at midnight EST (2100 PST, 0500 UTC) to learn the ropes, or leave a message on our talk pages around that time for on-wiki help.
Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia, Woonie! I hope you like the place and decide to keep contributing. Here are a few good links for newcomers:
- How to edit a page
- Editing, policy, conduct, and structure tutorial
- How to write a great article
- What Wikipedia is not
I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question at the village pump or feel free to ask me on my Talk page.
One more quick tip: to sign your name on a Talk page like I did below, the easiest way is just to type four tildes (~~~~). To customize your signature, look here.
And remember:Be Bold!

{{helpme}}
See Wikipedia:Userboxes. It describes how to use them and has a lists of them in the "Gallery" section near the bottom. Choose some that apply to you. In the "Grouping userboxes" section of the same page, it tells how to put them on your page. But if I were you, what I would do is go to the page you gave as an example; click "edit this page"; and copy (using your mouse) the part that has the userboxes (the part starting with <table and ending with </table>), carefully not clicking "save page" so you don't change the user's page, then paste that information into your own userpage; then delete any of the userboxes you don't want, and add some you do want. Feel free to ask at my talk page if you need more help. By the way, I added "tl" to your helpme template to turn it off. If you want to ask for help again, you can delete the "tl". --Coppertwig (talk) 17:00, 22 January 2008 (UTC)
File source problem with File:RIsidegate.JPG

Thank you for uploading File:RIsidegate.JPG. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of that website's terms of use of its content. However, if the copyright holder is a party unaffiliated from the website's publisher, that copyright should also be acknowledged.
If you have uploaded other files, consider verifying that you have specified sources for those files as well. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged per Wikipedia's criteria for speedy deletion, F4. If the image is copyrighted and non-free, the image will be deleted 48 hours after 16:09, 23 December 2010 (UTC) per speedy deletion criterion F7. If you have any questions or are in need of assistance please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Kelly hi! 16:09, 23 December 2010 (UTC)
