 * The five pillars of Wikipedia
 * Tutorial
 * How to edit a page and How to develop articles
 * How to create your first article (using the Article Wizard if you wish)
 * Simplified Manual of Style
 * Unfortunately, I've had to remove some of your contribution, the part sourced only to IJDH. Wikipedia policy generally requires that all information be from reliable secondary sources. It's already bending the rules a bit to allow info from third-party primary sources like John Conyers' home page, but sourcing this information to Joseph's own organization seems to me over the line. It's not that I believe that it's not true--though the claim that Birbeck University supports Joseph is definitely not borne out by the source you linked (I assume this was just an accident)--but generally we rely on secondary sources to see what neutral parties find significant enough to include in an encyclopedia as well as to get reliable information.
 * Part of the problem, too, is that there's been several IJDH-related single-purpose accounts seeking to change that article and other IJDH-related articles to promote IJDH's interests on Wikipedia, which makes me want to be even more cautious with the article; I was dealing with another one of these accounts only this morning. If you do happen to be another, you should definitely review our guidelines on conflict of interest. Assuming you're not, though, welcome to the Wiki! If there's any way I can help out with your future contributions, just let me know. -- Khazar2 (talk) 22:20, 18 October 2012 (UTC)
