W e l c o m e !
Hi there, , and welcome to Wikipedia! I'm a regular contributor here, and when I notice on the recent changes  log that a new editor has registered, I like to send them a welcome message - that's how I ended up on your talk page.

If you've never edited here before, there are a few useful links that you might want to look at, designed to help newcomers learn the ropes:
 * The five pillars of Wikipedia
 * How to edit a page
 * Help pages
 * Tutorial
 * How to write a great article
 * Manual of Style

Here are a few features of Wikipedia that I find particularly helpful:
 * If you leave a message on a talk page, you can sign it with four tildes (~&#126;), which will automatically produce your name and a date stamp when you save the page
 * The "Show preview" button allows you to look at what your post will look like before you save it - that way, you can proofread what you've written and not have to back and correct spelling mistakes, failed links, etc.
 * You can create a watchlist for yourself that will keep a record of any changes made to a page that interests you.

There are plenty of other features and facets of Wikipedia, many of which I probably haven't even discovered myself, so have fun looking around and finding them.

If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions , ask me on my  talk page , or place   on your talk page and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions.
