User talk:Theyapps/Archive 1

Hi there. Welcome to Wikipedia! Thanks for your note at the new user log. It doesn't really matter how old you are - everyone here is judged by what they contribute, and anyone can be a helpful contributor if they want.

One useful thing you could do here is try to help make the science, technology, and math articles here easier to read. A lot of them are written by very educated people, which can cause problems because only other people with a lot of education can read them. If you read something you don't understand, ask a question on the talk page.

Plus, there are plenty of general information articles on Wikipedia. Edit an article on a city near you, or on your home state or country, or on anything that interests you.

Here are some links you might find useful, if you haven't discovered them yet: How does one edit a page for editing help. Manual of Style for format questions. Policies and guidelines to find out what's ok and what's not. Help for any other questions you might have. Village pump to ask a question for everybody here.

Also, if you need anything feel free to leave a note on my talk page.

Oh, and thanks for restoring the information in Motorola 68008. There's a lot of work to do around here just correcting typos and repairing vandalism. It's not particularly interesting but most of us pitch in and help with it. Isomorphic 05:04, 20 Feb 2004 (UTC)

You're welcome, glad to have you here. Another tip: to sign messages, type three tildes  to sign just your username, and four tildes ( ~ ) to sign you username and a timestamp. Most of the time people do use the timestamps, because it makes it easier to follow discussions. Isomorphic 05:37, 20 Feb 2004 (UTC)
