Welcome, Docherty64, to Wikipedia, the greatest encyclopedia on Earth! You seem to be off to a good start. Hopefully you will soon join the vast army of Wikipediholics! You may wish to review the welcome page, tutorial, and stylebook, as well as the avoiding common mistakes and Wikipedia is not pages. The Wikipedia directory is also quite useful.
By the way, an important tip: To sign comments on talk pages, simply type four tildes, like this: ~~~~. This will automagically add your name and the time after your comments.
To basically understand the principles and rules governing Wikipedia, you should take a look the Five Pillars that underlie all rules here.
Finally, here are some jobs that you can work on in your spare time:
You can help improve the articles listed below! This list updates frequently, so check back here for more tasks to try. (See Wikipedia:Maintenance or the Task Center for further information.)
Help counter systemic bias by creating new articles on important women.
Help improve popular pages, especially those of low quality.
Hope to see you around the Wiki! And if you have any questions whatsoever, or would just like to drop me a note, feel free to contact me on my talk page!Bratschetalk | Esperanza 23:10, September 7, 2005 (UTC)
Please do not add nonsense to Wikipedia, as you did to the List of Presidents of the United States page. It is considered vandalism. If you would like to experiment, use the sandbox. Thank you. Davewild 19:43, 11 June 2007 (UTC)
