Welcome![edit]

Hello, WendsP! Thank you so much for coming to the Napier Connect Editathon yesterday - it was great to meet you all!

Now that we've created your userpage and learned the basics, I hope that you'll stay logged in and have a go at editing some articles. Don't worry about being perfect, Wiki is a constantly evolving entity. Fortunately there's a whole team of editors just like you who can help.

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian!

If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or place {{helpme}} on your talk page and ask your question there. See you soon!
