My name is Zach Dennison, and I joined Wikipedia on May 12, 2005. I am always using Wikipedia as a resource, yet I am fairly inactive when it comes to editing and creating articles. My biggest interest is in computers. I can write batch, HTML, and PHP files, and I can write in wiki markup. Most of my article contributions are to correct typos or add a small amount of content to an article.
The easiest way to create a new article is to click on a link to a page that doesn't exist. Typically, these links show up as red links.
You also can use the Search box—on the top-right corner of your screen—to look for an article name. When you are told that the page does not exist, click the link provided. You can also use the Article Wizard.
