Hello, Winged Blades of Godric, and Welcome to Wikipedia!

I am SporkBot. I hope you enjoy the encyclopedia and want to stay. As a first step, you may wish to read the Introduction.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask me at my talk page – I'm always happy to help. Alternatively, type {{helpme}} here on your talk page, and someone will try to help.

Final reminders

• Please sign your messages on talk pages with four tildes (~~~~). This will automatically insert your "signature" (your username and a date stamp). The or button, on the tool bar above Wikipedia's text editing window, also does this.
• If you would like to play around with your new Wiki skills without changing the mainspace, the Sandbox is for you.
