User talk:Hsmitherman

Hello,, and welcome to Wikipedia! I am Ssilvers, one of your "Online Ambassadors". Here are a few important links for newcomers:


 * The five pillars of Wikipedia
 * Reliable sources and CITE
 * How to edit a page and How to develop articles
 * Manual of Style and Writing better articles
 * Editing by consensus – working well with other Wikipedians

If you'd like some help with editing, you can ask me on my discussion (talk) page. If you need other help, check out Questions, post a question at the Help Desk, or ask me.

Please sign your messages on discussion pages using four tildes ( ~ ); this will automatically insert your username and the date. It is always wise to read the most recent entries at the bottom of the talk page of an existing article before making major changes to it. Before I make a major change to an article, I often make a proposal on the talk page to see if anyone minds.

Again, welcome! -- Ssilvers (talk) 18:11, 26 September 2011 (UTC)

Survey
Hi Hsmitherman!

I have put together a survey for female editors of Wikipedia (and related projects) in order to explore, in greater detail, women's experiences and roles within the Wikimedia movement. It'd be wonderful if you could participate!

It's an independent survey, done by me, as a fellow volunteer Wikimedian. It is not being done on behalf of the Wikimedia Foundation. I hope you'll participate!

Just click this link to participate in this survey, via Google!

Any questions or concerns, feel free to email me or stop by my user talk page. Also, feel free to share this any other female Wikimedians you may know. It is in English, but any language Wikimedia participants are encouraged to participate. I appreciate your contributions - to the survey and to Wikipedia! Thank you!
