Welcome and introduction

Hi, DarkJak495. This is NOT some automated message...it's from a real person. You can talk to me right now. Welcome to Wikipedia! I noticed you've just joined, and wanted to give you a few tips to get you started. If you have any questions, please talk to us. The tips below should help you to get started. Best of luck!

You don't need to read anything - anybody can edit; just go to an article and edit it. Be Bold, but please don't put silly stuff in - it will be removed very quickly, and will annoy people.

Ask for help. Talk to us live, or edit this page, put {{helpme}} and describe what help you need. Someone will reply very quickly - usually within a few minutes.

Play in your user area. For example, create User:DarkJak495/test.

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. For example, Wikipedia:Cleanup#2009.

When you're ready, read about Your first article. It should be about something well-known, and it will need references.

Good luck with editing; please drop me a line some time on my own talk page.

There's lots of information below. Once again, welcome to the fantastic world of Wikipedia!

Ruins of Gorlan

Hey, I've added a few section in on the article and thought you may want to may your crack at the sections. What I suggest is to use [1] to expand the Critical reception section with reviews. Note that I've already used up the School Library Journal one so don't use that. When summarizing a review, don't always pick out the good things, its important to make the article unbiased. Of course if there are no bad comments there's no need to try and find a review criticizing the novel. :). When you finish up with the reviews, I'll cite them with more reliable sources. As for the Concept and development section, I think I've used up most sources, but feel to try and find some information that I didn't add in. As I mentioned earlier, the best place for this type of information is through interviews. Good luck and happy editing! :). Derild 49 21 ☼ 23:37, 31 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, just reply here from now on, I have it on my watchlist. The part of a review you want is the part where the reviewer says if its good or bad. Also include in WHY the reviewer feels this way, things they praised/criticized. Sorry, but I'll be offline for this next week for midterms so you're going to have to ask someone else for help. :(. Sorry again and good luck! Derild 49 21 ☼ 02:27, 1 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
