Introducing myself
Hi, I am a new contributor, just learning the ropes. I have information to share from a background in nursing and other interests. But, I am having trouble finding clear information about exactly what the different Wiki mark-up does, and the proper way to cite references and footnotes. If anyone can direct me, it would be appreciated! I'm hoping to also lend a hand with categorizing articles but I could use direction to some tutorial/help pages for that too. Thanks, and see you around! Lifesnadir 22:06, 5 September 2006 (UTC)

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia! All the stuff you've mentioned can be found in various help articles in wikipedia. I was too lazy to read most of that stuff though, so I picked up as I went along. Just putting square brackets around a link will give a reference. Like this one

To add a category, just put square brackets around the words Category: whatever. Spelling can be a bit of a bitch.

A lazy way to learn how to do things is to go to a page and click edit, and then just look at how the code works. For instance, you will see that three equal signs around a word make it bold.

As for your edits to the Zohnerism article I had to remove them, and revert the article to a previous form. The reason was that the stuff you copied and pasted from the skepticism article is not relevent to the Zohnerism article.--Havermayer 05:52, 7 September 2006 (UTC)
