User talk:-*-steph-*-

hi. my name is steph. i'm a 15 year old girl from Australia and i'm new to this site. i don't really know what i should be doing but i think its a really fresh idea for a site and i want to get involved. so if anyone could help me out with how everything works thatd be good. i know there are instructions but theyre really extensive and i was wondering if someone would be willing to summarise. thanks

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia! Hope you like it here, and stick around.

Here are some tips to help you get started:


 * To sign your posts (on talk pages, for example) use the '~' symbol. To insert just your name, type &#126;&#126;&#126; (3 tildes), or, to insert your name and timestamp, use &#126;&#126;&#126;&#126; (4 tildes).
 * Try the Tutorial, and feel free to experiment in the test area.
 * If you need help, post a question at the Help Desk
 * Eventually, you might want to read the Manual of Style and Policies and Guidelines.
 * Remember Neutral point of view
 * Explore, be bold in editing pages, and, most importantly, have fun!

Good luck!
