Welcome
Hi, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thanks for joining the coolest online encyclopedia I know of. I hope you stick around. You'll probably find it easiest to start with a tutorial of how the wikipedia works, and you can test stuff for yourself in the sandbox. Check out the simplified ruleset. When you're contributing, you'll probably find the manual of style to be helpful, and you'll also want to remember a couple important guidelines.
 * 1) Write from a neutral point of view
 * 2) Be bold in editing pages
 * 3) Use wikiquette.

Those are probably the most important ones, and you can take a look at some others at the policies and guidelines page. You might also be interested in how to write a great article and possibly adding some images to your articles.

Be sure to get involved in the community – you can contact me on my talk page if you have any questions, and you can check out the village pump, where lots of wikipedians hang out and discuss things. If you're looking for something to do, check out the community portal. And whenever you ask a question or post something on a talk page, be sure to sign your name by typing 4 tildes like &#126;&#126;&#126;&#126;. Always sign the talk page, never the articles.

Again, welcome! It's great to have you. Happy editing!--May the Force be with you! Shreshth91 ($ |-| r 3 $ |-| t |-|)  13:34, 31 October 2005 (UTC)

WikiProject International development (pardon the promo)
Hi Benjamindees, I notice you've contributed to sustainability articles in the past. Perhaps you're also interested in Appropriate technology - in any case, you may be interested to know that there is now a WikiProject International development. The link to stubs will show a fair number of articles that are also related to sustainability. Cheers, Singkong2005 03:50, 23 March 2006 (UTC)
