Hello, Rebeccalgreen, welcome to Wikipedia and thank you for your contributions! I'm Nathan2055, one of the many editors here, and I hope you decide to stay here and help contribute to Wikipedia.

Here are some links to get you started:

    Introduction to Wikipedia
    The five pillars of Wikipedia
    How to edit a page
    Editing tutorial
    Help pages
    Manual of Style
    How to write a great article
    What Wikipedia is not
    The Basics of Wikicode

And here are some Do's and Don'ts:

    DO be bold
    DO assume good faith
    DO be civil
    DO keep cool!
    DO maintain a neutral point of view
    DON'T spam
    DON'T infringe copyright
    DON'T get blocked
    DON'T vandalize

If you need further help, you can:

    Ask a question

Or even:

    Ask an experienced editor to "adopt" you

Alternatively, drop a note on my talk page or type {{helpme}} here on your talk page and someone will try to help.

If you enjoy being here, there are many ways you can contribute to Wikipedia. Here are a few ideas:

    Fight vandalism
    Be a WikiFairy or a WikiGnome
    Help contribute to articles
    Perform maintenance tasks
    Become a member of a project that interests you
    Help design new templates

Remember to always sign your name on talk pages. You can do this either by clicking on the   button on the edit toolbar or by typing four tildes (~~~~) at the end of your post; this will automatically insert your username, a link to your talk page, and a timestamp.

As always though, the best way to learn about something is to experience it. Go and explore Wikipedia, the more time you spend on it, the more you'll know, and don't forget to have some fun!

Welcome edit

Hi, Rebeccalgreen. Welcome to Wikipedia!

I hope you like it here and decide to stick around. If you see something on Wikipedia that you want to change, just press the edit button and change it!

For the basic principles, see the five pillars of Wikipedia. And if you're ready to make some edits, this Wikipedia cheatsheet may come in handy.

Cheers, ChzzBot IV (talk) 17:01, 14 February 2012 (UTC)Reply


Your submission at Articles for creation edit

 

I noticed your submission in Articles for creation, Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Peekaboo Vintage. Thanks! It will be reviewed by a volunteer soon.

Before it can be added to Wikipedia, your submission should have references. All articles on Wikipedia should have inline, numbered references after facts, showing the 'reliable source' (a newspaper, book, etc.) where the information can be checked, so that all information is verifiable.

Here's a video tutorial - hit play, then right-click for "full screen".

Here's an example of how to add references:

Chzz is 98 years old.<ref> "The book of Chzz", Aardvark Books, 2009. </ref>

He likes tea.<ref> Smith, John. "[http://foonews.com/Article42 Interview with Chzz]", Foo News, 1 April 2010. Retrieved 2011-05-22. </ref>

== References ==

{{reflist}}

That makes the references automatically display as small numbers[1] which will link to the details in the section titled == References == at the end. You can see that example in action here.

Please add references to your submission, which will be reviewed as soon as possible. See also, Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners. If you need any help, just put {{helpme}} at the end of this page, followed by a question or get into our live help chat chanel at #wikipedia-en-help connect.
