Welcome!
'''Hello,, Welcome  to Wikipedia! '''I hope you like working here and want to continue. If you need help on how to name new articles, look at Naming Conventions, and for help on formatting the pages visit the Manual of Style. If you need general help, look at Help and the FAQ, and if you can't find your answer there, check the Village pump (for Wikipedia related questions) or the Reference Desk (for general questions). There's still more help at the Tutorial and the Policy Library. Also, don't forget to visit the Community Portal &mdash; and if you have any more questions after that, feel free to post them on my New-Users' Talk Page.'''

Additional tips:
 * Here are some extra tips to help you get around Wikipedia:
 * If you made any edits before you got an account, you might be interested in assigning those to your username.
 * If you want to play around with your new Wiki skills, try the Sandbox.
 * Click on the Edit button on a page, and look at how other editors did what they did.
 * You can sign your name using three tildes, like this: &#126;&#126;&#126;. If you use four, you can add a datestamp too. Always sign comments on Talk pages, never sign Articles.
 * You might want to add yourself to the New User Log
 * If your first language isn't English, try Contributing to articles outside your native language

Happy editing! Mel Etitis ( &Mu;&epsilon;&lambda; &Epsilon;&tau;&eta;&tau;&eta;&sigmaf; ) 20:13, 11 Mar 2005 (UTC)

On Wikifying
Hi Binarypunisher, and welcome aboard.

I'm always glad to see more copyeditors on Wikipedia. Adding internal links (some people call them Wikilinks) to Wikipedia articles is an important step in building and improving any of the entries in our encyclopedia. Many here would argue that it is one of the most important aspects of Wikifying (the process of making articles fit within the formatting and style guidelines of Wikipedia).

One thing to be wary of is to avoid overwikifying. Within most articles, a single internal link to a term is sufficent. For example, in the article on the Second Chechen War, only the first reference to Grozny needs a Wikilink; subsequent uses of Grozny can remain as normal text. There are lots of details in the Wikipedia Manual of Style; on this point check out the guide to linking.
