Welcome to the Wikipedia[edit]

Welcome, newcomer!

Here are some useful tips to ease you into the Wikipedia experience:

First, take a look at the Wikipedia Tutorial, and perhaps dabble a bit in the test area.
When you have some free time, take a look at the Manual of Style and Policies and Guidelines. They can come in very handy!
Remember to use a neutral point of view!
If you need any help, feel free to post a question at the Help Desk
Explore, be bold in editing pages, and, most importantly, have fun!

Also, here are some odds and ends that I find useful from time to time:

Feel free to ask me anything the links and talk pages don't answer. You can most easily reach me by posting on my talk page.

You can sign your name on any page by typing 4 tildes, likes this: ~~~~.

Best of luck, and have fun!

Some tips[edit]

Hello. Your article Swildon's Hole prompts these comments:

The title word or title phrase in an article should be highlighted at its first appearance (which is often at or near the beginning of the opening sentence) like this.

You don't need to write [[dog|dogs]]; instead you can write [[dog]]s and the whole word, including the final s, appears as a clickable link. Similarly [[Australia]]n, [[logic]]al, [[baptism]]al, [[hyphen]]ated, [[apocrypha]]l, etc.
