Re

Regarding your question:

Hello! Welcome to Wikipedia!

To cite a source, please refer to WP:CITET, there you will find all kinds of templates to use, or like most editors, you can add the refToolbar which helps quite a lot and saves you time and effort from having to copy and paste the CITE templates every time you need them. You can add it by going to "Gadgets" (from here ) and ticking the box nest to "refTools", and then saving. This will add a "cite" button to the editing toolbar for quick and easy addition of commonly used citation templates.

I am not aware of a spell checker designed for WP(I use Firefox, which does that for me). :)

Cheers mate!

Glad to see you on board mate!

Well sure, there are a lot of articles out there who could really use a different point of view and some sources. Citing a book couldn't be easier , just filling in some information in the template. Follow the links I gave above and you will be on the right track.

It can be a bit confusing at first glance, so if you have any questions, just contact me on my talk page and I will happily provide you with an example, etc.

In the mean time, you can check WP:REF, WP:CITET.

Cheers mate!
