Hello and welcome to Wikipedia!

Here are some tips to help you get started:

Try the Tutorial, and feel free to experiment in the test area.
If you need help, post a question at the Help Desk
Eventually, you might want to read the Manual of Style and Policies and Guidelines.
Remember Wikipedia:Neutral point of view
Explore, be bold in editing pages, and, most importantly, have fun!

Good luck!

[[User:Meelar|Meelar (talk)]]

P.S. One last helpful hint. To sign your posts like I did above (on talk pages, for example) use the '~' symbol. To insert just your name, type ~~~ (3 tildes), or, to insert your name and timestamp, use ~~~~ (4 tildes).

Another welcome!

Keep up the great work on L.A. topics! jengod 17:52, Oct 7, 2004 (UTC)

Yet another hello

Wow! You're doing some very constructive work on Southland articles. Very nice, and welcome to the Wiki! --avnative 05:08, Oct 8, 2004 (UTC)

Edit summaries

I noticed that you recently made an edit summary: Affirmative action; 19:11:26 . . Coolcaesar (Talk) (Fixing the spelling, the idiot who wrote this doesn't know how to spell affirmative)

While I totally understand your frustration, it's generally better not to put it into edit summaries. See Wikipedia:Wikitiqute. ;-) Thanks for working on Wikipedia. The comment above reminded me that I should look at the entries on LA (I'm a LA native). JesseW 02:15, 6 Nov 2004 (UTC)

Yes, people like myself do make spelling mistakes all the time. I always check my work, but sometimes miss things. Please, though, as JesseW said, don't call me an idiot for spelling affirmative incorrectly. (Yes, I was the one who wrote the lines that containted misspelled affirmative [1]). Personal attacks aren't at all constructive, it's better just to make the correction and move on. —siro χ o 23:37, Nov 16, 2004 (UTC)
