RE: ADOPT ME

edit

I am totally new to wiki editing. i have read a number of the 'how to/help' pages but admittedly I am still finding it very confusing as there is such a huge amount to learn. I am looking for someone to adopt me and show me the ropes, I am likely to have plenty of questions, some of which might seem slightly dumb to an experienced user but please bear with me. I learn fairly quickly. I would like to know more about creating and editing articles, fighting vandalism, and contributing to discussions. (and probably everything else, in a nutshell)

I will only be able to contribute a limited amount of time to wikipedia but I hope that my contributions will be useful!

My main areas of interest are:
Music: Bands/Musicians/Artists (in history and popular culture)
The performing Arts (dance, music, films & theatre)
Dance and Choreography: (BellyDance, Fusion, American tribal Style)
Science Fiction and Fantasy in films, art and literature
Body modification - tattoos, piercings etc
Neurology and Sleep disorders (narcolepsy/insomnia)

Please contact me
