Welcome to Wikipedia!
Dear TheBigPicture: Welcome to Wikipedia, a free and open-content encyclopedia. I hope you enjoy contributing. To help get you settled in, I thought you might find the following pages useful:


 * Five Pillars of Wikipedia
 * Community Portal
 * Frequently Asked Questions
 * How to edit a page
 * How to revert to a previous version of a page
 * Tutorial
 * Copyrights
 * Shortcuts

Don't worry too much about being perfect. Very few of us are! Just in case you are not perfect, click here to see how you can avoid making common mistakes.

If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the New contributors' help page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type   on your user page, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions.

Wikipedians try to follow a strict policy of never biting new users. If you are unsure of how to do something, you are welcome to ask a more experienced user such as an administrator. One last bit of advice: please sign any discussion comment with four tildes (~&#126;). The software will automatically convert this into your signature which can be altered in the "Preferences" tab at the top of the screen. I hope I have not overwhelmed you with information. If you need any help just let me know. Once again welcome to Wikipedia, and don't forget to tell us about yourself and be BOLD!--TheBigPicture 01:13, 20 October 2006 (UTC)

Requests for adminship/Elonka
Thank you for your support in my RfA. Unfortunately consensus was not reached, and the nomination was not successful. However, I do appreciate that you took the time to participate, and encourage you to spend more time editing in various areas of Wikipedia, so as not to look like a Single Purpose Account. For my own part, even though the RfA did not succeed, I am still in support of the Wikipedia project, and will continue to contribute without interruption. And if you have any questions, please do not hesitate to ask! --Elonka 19:24, 25 October 2006 (UTC)
