I will adopt you if you like
"What's next?" Well, that really depends on what you're looking for. I can give you specific assignments or tasks, or you can just ask me questions. Some people prefer a more active mentorship, others prefer something more laid back.

You might want to have a look at my wikithoughts page (read it bottom-to-top), which can give you insight into what I've dealt with and what some common pitfalls are. I see you're involved with the Counter-vandalism unit; that's good. Depending on the kind of work you'd like to do, you may want to join a WikiProject.

So I guess the next step is up to you. Let me know what you have in mind, and we can take it from there. – Scartol  ·  Talk  23:03, 29 October 2007 (UTC)

Your First Assignment
Okay, seeing as how you're into video games, your first mission is to choose one of the Video game article requests and make it happen. Since this your first new article, let's start by making it in your sandbox. To make a sandbox, first you need to make a link to your sandbox. So on your userpage somewhere, type: User:MBOmega/sandbox Then save. When the page refreshes, you'll have a red link. (Sorry if I'm going over stuff you already know; I'd rather explain too much than explain too little.) Click the red link and you'll be in a new editing window. You can build the article here. (Once you have something workable, we'll move it into the main article space. Working in the sandbox allows us to fiddle with things freely without other folks butting in.)

Most of the requests have links next to the proposed article title where you can find more information. Make sure you cite your sources and use only reliable sources.

Good luck, have fun – and if you have any questions, ask away! – Scartol  ·  Talk  02:07, 30 October 2007 (UTC)
