Wikipedia The Free Encyclopedia If you need help. You can try our live IRC help, or you can click on the edit tab at the top of this page and and place {{helpme}} and describe what help you need. Someone will reply very quickly—usually within a few minutes. You can create your own "Test" page by clicking on this link > User:Damon.cross/test < This will open an edit window on a page with that title, add something in the edit window and scroll down and click the Save page button and you've just created your first page. Edit existing articles, before you make your own. Look at some subjects that you know about, and see if you can make them a bit better. When you're ready, read about Your first article. It should be about something well-known, and it will need references.

Headers

Please do not capitalize headers in Wikipedia. The Wikipedia Manual of Style is the rule book for formatting. The section on headers clearly states that only the first word of a header should be capitalized. Before editing here, it is worthwhile learning about how to edit and format articles. You've already been given some suggestions about what to read to prepare yourself for editing. I suggest you start reading. Otherwise you and your classmates will be wasting a lot of editors' time cleaning up after you. -- Mesconsing (talk) 18:27, 17 January 2013 (UTC)
