Welcome!
[edit]Hello, LindaPenn04, 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:
- Introduction and Getting started
- Contributing to Wikipedia
- The five pillars of Wikipedia
- How to edit a page and How to develop articles
- How to create your first article
- Simplified Manual of Style
You may also want to complete the Wikipedia Adventure, an interactive tour that will help you learn the basics of editing Wikipedia. You can visit the Teahouse to ask questions or seek help.
Please remember to sign your messages on talk pages by typing four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically insert your username and the date. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or , and a volunteer should respond shortly. Again, welcome! Johnuniq (talk) 07:50, 10 March 2018 (UTC)
Talk pages
[edit]I noticed your question at Wikipedia:Help desk#How to Respond to Teahouse Comment. I should reply there but I wanted to put the above welcome on your talk page and so am including this. You are free to ignore this, or reply to it, or delete it.
At Wikipedia:Teahouse#Question About Edit Summary Box the last comment currently starts with "And as long as I'm here...". To reply, click the [edit] link just after the "Question About Edit Summary Box" heading. You would see the first line shown in the following, and you would type a comment using the format shown in the second line. Because the second line is long, it may wrap to display on more than one line when you view it.
::And as long as ''I'm'' here... :::Thank you and here is my follow-up comment. I will finish by typing a space then four tilde characters. When I preview the edit I will see that the four tildes are replaced with my signature. ~~~~
Your reply would start with three tildes colons (one more than the comment you are replying to). See WP:TP for more, including the need to type four tildes for a signature. Johnuniq (talk) 07:50, 10 March 2018 (UTC)
- As someone said on the Help page, we don't expect new users to figure out all of the intricacies right away. The fact that you are aware of markup and asking about it already puts you ahead of most beginners. Welcome to Wikipedia. If you have any questions feel free to drop a line on my talk page.
