Welcome to Wikipedia! edit
Dear Namaane: Welcome to Wikipedia, a free and open-content encyclopedia. I hope you enjoy contributing. To help get you settled in, I thought you might find the following pages useful:
- Five Pillars of Wikipedia
- Community Portal
- Frequently Asked Questions
- How to edit a page
- How to revert to a previous version of a page
- Tutorial
- Copyrights
- Shortcuts
Don't worry too much about being perfect. Very few of us are! Just in case you are not perfect, click here to see how you can avoid making common mistakes.
If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the New contributors' help page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type {{helpme}} on your user page, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions.
Wikipedians try to follow a strict policy of never biting new users. If you are unsure of how to do something, you are welcome to ask a more experienced user such as an administrator. One last bit of advice: please sign any dicussion comment with four tildes (~~~~). The software will automatically convert this into your signature which can be altered in the "Preferences" tab at the top of the screen. I hope I have not overwhelmed you with information. If you need any help just let me know. Once again welcome to Wikipedia, and don't forget to tell us about yourself and be BOLD!
Also, thank you for adding the Piggyback loan article. Wikipedia always needs additional substantive material.
Note that another editor has flagged this article for deletion, potentially immediately, based on two concerns:
- Wikipedia does not accept dictionary entries -- that's the role of its sister project, the Wiktionary. See Wikipedia is not a dictionary.
- The material in this article does not provide enough context for readers unfamiliar with the subject.
I encourage you to expand this article or to move it to Wiktionary.
I hope you'll keep adding to Wikipedia.
