Need Some Help?
Hi, I noticed how you edited one of our pages. I guess you knew it was wrong, because you reverted your error. Wikipedia is an online encyclopedia, that can be edited by anyone, so you can imagine the amount of vandalism our pages get. I know your intention was not vandalism, but remember to not write biases on a page, but known facts. Wikipedia prefers to not be used as a chatroom. You may use the sandbox to do anymore experiments. Best of luck on wikipedia! Shy1520 04:19, 9 December 2006 (UTC)


 * Welcome to wikipedia - I found your post on Talk:Gun Politics was very thoughtful. I've moved it to the bottom of the page, in a new section, per Talk page guidelines.  You might also want to take a look at Sign your posts on talk pages.


 * I will warn you that Gun politics seems to be one about which a lot of editors disagree, and one that has accumulated a lot of cruft. If you're going to make a difference in what the article says, you probably need to be prepared to spend a bit of time, and you're at quite a disadvantage because you're new.


 * Keep in mind that it can take months of editing, and certainly hundreds of edits to reach a reasonably good level of expertise, but that you should still dive in, since the worst that can happen (if you edit in good faith) is that someone does a [[Help:Reverting|revert). Some other things you might want to read:
 * New contributors' help page
 * Faux pas avoidance
 * Contribute what you know or are willing to learn more about


 * Good luck, and keep in mind that if you want to help here, there are a lot of articles that need improving, and a lot of resources for editors, including other editors. John Broughton  |  Talk 20:17, 9 December 2006 (UTC)
