Welcome!

Wiki biscuits are guaranteed zero calories!

Welcome to Wikipedia, Weaks21! 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|alt=a description for blind people]]
    • 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===
  • 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 famous citation needed. If you come back in a week or two and find no-one has referenced the information feel free to remove it.

  • Help:Wiki markup has everything from hieroglyphs to mathematical notation
