Welcome!
editWelcome to Wikipedia, Localhisted2! Thank you for coming here. I have been editing Wikipedia for some time, so if you have any questions feel free to leave me a message on my talk page. You can also check out Wikipedia:Questions or type {{help me}}
at the bottom of this page. Here are some tips that you might find helpful:
- You can add links to other articles by putting them in [[double square brackets]]
- You can add pictures from Wikimedia Commons by putting them in [[double square brackets with|thumb for thumbnail|Left right or center so it knows where to go|a meaningful caption]]
- Example [[Image:Chocolate chip cookies.jpg|thumb|right|Wiki biscuits are guaranteed zero calories! ]]
- You can add headings by putting them in ==double square equal signs== and ===subheadings are similar===
- This then means that you can edit one section of an article while someone else edits another part of the same page.
- To add a reference first check that {{reflist}} is at the end of the article.
- Then add your reference <ref>[The webpage you are citing a description & retrieved today's date]</ref>
- If you find unreferenced information on Wikipedia that you consider dubious or unlikely, first try to reference it with a search on the internet. If you know it is wrong correct it, if you can't find a source then adding {{fact}} adds the (in)famous "citation needed". If you come back in a week or two and find that no one has referenced the information, feel free to remove it.

editHi, I see you have added the booking info on Wikipedia:Meetups/UK/Gloucester Archives Nov 2015. I've been asked to train on behalf of WikimediaUK at this event and wanted to make contact to find out what you are expecting and some idea of logistics planning?— Rod talk 15:40, 8 October 2015 (UTC)
