Welcome![edit]

Hello, Dorval28, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are a few links to pages you might find helpful:

Again, welcome! --Forward Unto Dawn 10:30, 12 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Links to other Wikipedia articles[edit]

You may not be aware of this, but if you wish to add links to other Wikipedia articles, you only need to surround the name in double square braces, like this: [[alphabet]] or [[alphabet|letters]] if you want the second word to link to the first word. Also, bear in mind Wikipedia's policies on linking, both internal and external links (see WP:MOSLINK for more information).--Forward Unto Dawn 10:36, 12 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The Teahouse[edit]

I recommend you go to Wikipedia's teahouse and get acquainted with Wikipedia's policies. Feel free to ask questions there.--Forward Unto Dawn 10:48, 12 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Manual of Style[edit]

I strongly recommend you take a moment to read Wikipedia's manual of style. Slow down; there's no need to rush straight in and edit as many pages as possible. Some of your edits have not been constructive and have been reverted. It would also help if you use edit summaries.--Forward Unto Dawn 11:02, 12 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Information icon Welcome to Wikipedia. At least one of your recent edits did not appear to be constructive and has been reverted or removed. Although everyone is welcome to contribute to Wikipedia, please take some time to familiarise yourself with our policies and guidelines. You can find information about these at the welcome page which also provides further information about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. If you only meant to make some test edits, please use the sandbox for that. Thank you. --Forward Unto Dawn 11:08, 12 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Opting in to VisualEditor[edit]

As you may know, VisualEditor ("Edit beta") is currently available on the English Wikipedia only for registered editors who choose to enable it. Since you have made 50 or more edits with VisualEditor this year, I want to make sure that you know that you can enable VisualEditor (if you haven't already done so) by going to your preferences and choosing the item, "MediaWiki:Visualeditor-preference-enable". This will give you the option of using VisualEditor on articles and userpages when you want to, and give you the opportunity to spot changes in the interface and suggest improvements. We value your feedback, whether positive or negative, about using VisualEditor, at Wikipedia:VisualEditor/Feedback. Thank you, Whatamidoing (WMF) (talk) 20:22, 11 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
