Some cookies to welcome you!

Welcome to Wikipedia, Helen Young 82! Thank you for your contributions. I am Wgolf and I have been editing Wikipedia for some time, so if you have any questions feel free to leave me a message on my talk page. You can also check out Wikipedia:Questions or type {{help me}} at the bottom of this page. Here are some pages that you might find helpful:

• Introduction
• The five pillars of Wikipedia
• How to edit a page
• Help pages
• How to write a great article
• Discover what's going on in the Wikimedia community

Also, when you post on talk pages you should sign your name using four tildes (~~~~); that will automatically produce your username and the date. I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Wgolf (talk) 17:44, 4 March 2015 (UTC)

Hello again!

Hello, Helen Young 82! Thank you so much for coming to the Napier Connect Editathon yesterday - it was great to meet you all!

Now that we've created your userpage and learned the basics, I hope that you'll stay logged in and have a go at editing some articles. If you're not feeling bold enough to write an article straight away, why not try a small edit first, or adding a link? (You could of course join the fine and Noble people of the Guild of Copy Editors...) Don't worry about being perfect, Wiki is a constantly evolving entity. Fortunately there's a whole team of editors just like you who can help.

Welcome! Now have some cake...

You can't break Wikipedia, but in case you're still nervous here are some pages that you might find helpful:

• Is your topic notable enough for an article?
• Be Bold!
• Don't let grumpy users scare you off.
• Learn from others
• How to write a great article
• A simplified manual of style

If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or place {{helpme}} on your talk page and ask your question there. See you soon!

Oh and...

A couple of things I thought might interest you... To keep up to date about Wikimedia events happening throughout Scotland, to learn more about ScotWiki projects, or to publicise your own ScotWiki event or project, join the ScotWiki Mailing List! To help tackle the gender gap on Wiki, you could join the Gender Gap Task Force, or the Gender Gap mailing list!
