Thank you for choosing me as your coach. I hope I can help you reach your goals on Wikipedia.

What are your goals?

 * My goals are learning everything about the programs you use as an admin. Besides, that´s clear, I want to help stopping vandalism. If you can show me this things and if you can give me the knowledge I need for becoming an good admin, I´d be very happy!



Edit summaries
The first thing I noticed is that you don't always fill in your edit summaries. You should fill those in - it helps others understand what you have done when they look at the edit histories for articles and when they look at your contribution history.

There's a setting in "my contributions" you can use to force you to remember.

 * No problem, I promise you that in the future I´ll fill all my edits!

First assignment
Familiarize yourself with every page listed on WP:DIR - click on each one and read it.

 * Wow! That are lots of pages. But I´m sure that tomorrow I know them. Today, I´ve lots of things to do, so only tomorrow I can learn something.


 * You don't have to do it all in one day. [[Image:Smiley.svg|19px]]   Th e Tr ans hu man ist    22:44, 14 January 2008 (UTC)

Answering messages
You mixed your responses with my posts above. It was hard to tell at first glance what I posted above from your answers. I've reformatted the discussion, moving your answers to after each of my posts to more easily tell them apart.

Please see Indentation and Signatures.

Tools
A good place to start is my tool page.

There's a link to it on my user page.

Vandalism
The lesson The Rambling Man, on vandalism is a very good place to start.

See also Vandalism.

Edit summaries
Please fill in your edit summaries.

If you have a hard time remembering, there's a setting that will remind you in "my preferences."

Collaboration
I'm pushing a collaboration to complete the list of basic space exploration topics.

Should be fun. Drop on by. ;)

Also, see my post to User talk:Quiddity if you want to delve in deeper.
