Your User Page[edit]

Welcome to Wikipedia - I am sure some admin will also welcome you too with some good links - if not add a comment to my talk page and I will copy and paste some good ones together.

If someone else hasn't mentioned it - although the User pages are on the the main encyclopedia, they are limited by being in a different "namespace" that is not included in normal article titles when someone searches but makes for quick links and access to the user pages and talk. The format is basically [[namespace:Title]] instead of [[Title]] so for users it is [[User:Orthoseeker]] and [[User_talk:Orthoseeker]] which become User:Orthoseeker and User_talk:Trödel.

Like you, when I first discoverd Wikipedia I thought it was great and used it as a reference and then started editing gradually - I hope you enjoy editing and help contribute - I am still editing only a few times a week but even that amount seems to help and I feel I am doing my part to contribute to this great resource. -Jim Trödel|talk 19:22, 4 Feb 2005 (UTC)

I'm suprised you werent sent the welcome. Here is one of the standard welcome pages with appropriate links:

Welcome[edit]

Hello, Orthoseeker, and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the Wikipedia Boot Camp, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type {{helpme}} on your user page, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Here are a few good links for newcomers:

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and vote pages using three tildes, like this: ~~~. Four tildes (~~~~) produces your name and the current date. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. Again, welcome! You should probably read policies and guidelines at some point too.

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian!
