Remember to always sign your posts on talk pages. You can do this either by clicking on the link= button on the edit toolbar or by typing four tildes (~~~~) at the end of your post. This will automatically insert your signature, a link to this (your talk) page, and a timestamp.

The best way to learn about something is to experience it. Explore, learn, contribute, and don't forget to have some fun! To get some practice editing you can use a sandbox. You can [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Mypage/sandbox&action=edit&preload=Template:User_Sandbox/preload create your own private sandbox] for use any time. Perfect for working on bigger projects. Then for easy access in the future, you can put {{My sandbox}} on your userpage.

There are many ways you can contribute to Wikipedia. Here are a few ideas:

:File:Edit-find-replace.svg   Fight vandalism

:File:Vista-Login Manager.png   Be a WikiFairy or a WikiGnome

:File:Crystal package settings.png   Help contribute to articles

:File:Vista-advancedsettings.png   Perform maintenance tasks

:File:Vista-messenger.png   Become a member of a project that interests you

:File:Curly Brackets.svg   Help design new templates

If you need further help, you can:

:File:Nuvola_apps_filetypes.svg   Ask a question

or even:

:File:Presa de decissions.png   Ask an experienced editor to "adopt" you

Alternatively, place {{helpme}} on your talk page, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions.

Again, welcome!
