[[Wikipedia:Introduction|Welcome]] to Wikipedia! I hope you enjoy the encyclopaedia and want to [[Wikipedia:Wikipedians|stay]]. Before getting too in-depth, you may want to read about the [[Wikipedia:Simplified Ruleset|simplified ruleset]]. If you need help on how to title new articles check out the [[Wikipedia:Naming conventions|naming conventions]], and for help on formatting the pages visit the [[Wikipedia:Manual of Style|manual of style]]. If you need help look at [[Wikipedia:Help]] and the [[Wikipedia:FAQ|FAQ]]; plus, if you can't find your answer there, check the [[Wikipedia:Village Pump|Village Pump]] (for Wikipedia related questions) or the [[Wikipedia:Reference Desk|Reference Desk]] (for general questions). There's still more help at the [[Wikipedia:Tutorial|Tutorial]] and [[Wikipedia:Policy Library|Policy Library]]. Also, don't forget to visit the [[Wikipedia:Community Portal|Community Portal]]. And if you have any more questions after that, feel free to post them on [[User talk:A. B.|my user talk page]]. |

====User accounts: increased anonymity and editing benefits==== |
|||
You don't have to [[Special:Userlogin|log in]] to read or edit articles on Wikipedia, but you may wish to create a account. Doing so is free, requires no personal information, and provides several [[Wikipedia:Why create an account?|benefits]], including: |
|||
*The use of a [[Wikipedia:Username|username]] of your choice, provided that it is [[Wikipedia:Username#Inappropriate_usernames|appropriate]]. |
|||
*The use of your own [[Wikipedia:Watchlist|watchlist]], which shows when articles you are interested in have changed. |
|||
*The ability to [[Help:Starting a new page|create new pages]]. |
|||
*The ability to [[Wikipedia:How to rename a page|rename pages]]. |
|||
*The ability to edit [[Wikipedia:Semi-protection policy|semi-protected pages]]. |
|||
*The ability to [[Special:Upload|upload images]]. |
|||
*The ability to customize the appearance and behavior of the website. |
|||
*Your [[IP address]] will no longer be visible to other users. |
|||
====Additional tips==== |
|||
Here are some extra tips to help you get around in Wikipedia: |
|||
*If you want to play around with your new Wiki skills the [[Wikipedia:Sandbox|Sandbox]] is for you. |
|||
*If you ever think a page or image should be deleted, please list it at the [[Wikipedia:votes for deletion|votes for deletion]] page. There is also a [[Wikipedia:votes for undeletion|votes for undeletion]] page if you want to retrieve something that you think should not have been deleted. |
|||
*If you're still entirely confused, or would like to get a better grasp of your wikipedia skills, check out the [[Wikipedia:New contributors' help page|New contributors' help page]]. |

Your recent edits
Hi, there. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. On many keyboards, the tilde is entered by holding the Shift key, and pressing the key with the tilde pictured. You may also click on the signature button 
located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your name and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you! --SineBot 16:14, 30 August 2007 (UTC)
