Hello, CanIHelpOut! Welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. You may benefit from following some of the links below, which will help you get the most out of Wikipedia. If you have any questions you can ask me on my talk page, or place  on your talk page and ask your question there. Please remember to sign your name on talk pages by clicking or by typing four tildes "~&#126;"; this will automatically produce your name and the date. If you are already excited about Wikipedia, you might want to consider being "adopted" by a more experienced editor or joining a WikiProject to collaborate with others in creating and improving articles of your interest. Click here for a directory of all the WikiProjects. Finally, please do your best to always fill in the edit summary field when making edits to pages. Happy editing!

Thanks so much! Sorry, deleted your name by accident but never mind. I always sign my posts on talk pages, don't worry about that :-D. I do need to remember the 'edit summary' thing though, so that was very helpful. TTYL! Bye! --CanIHelpOut (talk) 18:52, 2 October 2014 (UTC)

Help request
What page should I make? I really want to so I can be 'part of the Wiki community'CanIHelpOut (talk) 17:31, 5 October 2014 (UTC)


 * You don't need to write a new article to be "part of the Wiki community"; improving the articles we already have is at least as important, and it will allow you to gain experience with Wikipedia and the wiki code on the way. The community portal has lists of articles in need of improvement. In fact, writing a new article from scratch is a highly challenging task, not one I'd recommend for a new editor. If you still intend to go that route, my advice would be to choose an appropriate topic from among the requests at WP:Requested articles (there are many topics we should not have articles about, mainly due to notability concerns) and to use the Article Wizard to write a draft and to submit it for a review by an experienced editor.
