User:M.Gray/Welcome-Anon

Welcome, M.Gray!

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions.

Currently, you are editing without an username. You can continue to do so, as you are not required to log in to Wikipedia to read and edit articles; however, logging in will result in an username being shown instead of your IP address (yours is M.Gray). Logging in does not require any personal details, and there are many other benefits for logging in.

Here are a few links I found useful when I first arrived here:-

You should sign your name on talk pages and other discussions by typing ~~~~; our software automatically converts it to your username and the date. Also, if you don't want to jump right into editing articles right now, why not check out the sandbox? Feel free to make test edits there.

I know there's a lot of policies and whatnot, but there are two more things I recommend you take note of while editing Wikipedia - cite references wherever possible, and avoid allowing personal biases interfere with your editing.

I hope you enjoy your editing and becoming a Wikipedian. Although we all make mistakes, please keep in mind what Wikipedia is not. If you have any questions or problems, leave me a message on my talk page, and I'll try my best to help. Otherwise, please come to the New contributors' help page, 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. I hope you consider creating an account and helping us to build an encyclopedia.
