Welcome!

Hello,, and welcome to Wikipedia!

Thank you for your contributions. It's great that you want to contribute to Wikipedia - the more constructive editors the better!

I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are some pages that you might find helpful:
 * The five pillars of Wikipedia
 * Tutorial
 * How to edit a page
 * How to write a great article
 * Manual of Style

You might also find these policies and guidelines useful:
 * What do we mean if we say that you might have a Conflict of Interest?
 * What do we mean by Neutral Point of View?
 * What sources are counted as reliable?
 * What makes the subject of an article notable?

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Getting the articles just right can be tricky - but there are lots of people to ask!

If you have any questions, just click on the Contact Me link after my signature at the end of this section. Alternatively, check out Questions, or ask your question on this page and then place  before the question.

By the way, when you are writing on a discussion page (or someone's talk page), it is considered good manners to sign your comment... to do this, just add  at the end of your comment. That will put your user name and the date/time at the end (or you can click on the  icon when you are editing. Never sign on an article page - only on a discussion page.

Linking to another language Wikipedia's page
Hi, to link to it, all you need to do is add the link at the bottom of the page source, as I have done (it reads de:Hexe Lilli (Kinderbuch))

If you look at the left-hand side of the page, you will see that under "Languages" there is German - clicking on that will go to the German article.

Hope this helps!

 * Postscript: at the top, where it says (German: Hexe Lilli), this is meant only to show the German equivalent name, not to link to the German Wikipedia article! --  Phantom Steve  ( Contact Me, My Contribs ) 10:01, 2 September 2009 (UTC)

Great, thanks a lot for the explanation. I am starting to get used to the scheme ... --Meielie (talk) 11:54, 11 September 2009 (UTC)
