Welcome to the Wikipedia!
Hello, and Welcome to the Wikipedia, Barefootmatt! Hope you enjoy editing here and becoming a Wikipedian! Here are a few perfunctory tips to hasten your acculturation into the Wikipedia experience:


 * Take a look at the Wikipedia Tutorial and Manual of Style.
 * When you have time, you can peruse The five pillars of Wikipedia, and assume good faith, but keep in mind the unique style you brought to the Wiki!
 * Always keep the notion of NPOV in mind, be respectful of others' POV, and remember your perspective on the meaning of neutrality is invaluable!
 * If you need any help, post your question at the Help Desk.
 * Explore, be bold in editing, and, above all else, have fun!

And some odds and ends: Boilerplate text, Brilliant prose, Cite your sources, Civility, Conflict resolution, How to edit a page, How to write a great article, Pages needing attention, Peer review, Policy Library, Utilities, Verifiability, Village pump, Wikiquette, and you can sign your name on any page by typing 4 tildes: &#x7e;&#x7e;&#x7e;&#x7e;.

Best of luck, Barefootmatt, and most importantly, have fun! Ombudsman 20:46, 27 January 2006 (UTC)

NatSel arbitration case
I do not if you are interested in it, but I have filed an Request for Arbitration against Marcosantezana Requests_for_arbitration because of the continued unworkable situation at Natural selection. --KimvdLinde 21:08, 22 March 2006 (UTC)
