 * You don't need to read anything - anybody can edit; just go to an article and edit it. Be Bold, but please don't put silly stuff in - it will be removed very quickly, and will annoy people.


 * Ask for help. Talk to us live, or edit this page, put   and describe what help you need. Someone will reply very quickly - usually within a few minutes.


 * Play in your user area. For example, you can create your own testpage at User:/Sandbox.


 * Edit existing articles, before you make your own. Look at some subjects that you know about, and see if you can make them a bit better. For example, Cleanup.


 * When you're ready, read about Your first article. It should be about something well-known, and it will need references.

Good luck with editing; please drop me a line some time on my own talk page. {| width="100%" style="background-color:white;"
