A belated welcome![edit]
Here's wishing you a belated welcome to Wikipedia, Marvinthefish. I see that you've already been around a while and wanted to thank you for your contributions. Though you seem to have been successful in finding your way around, you may benefit from following some of the links below, which help editors get the most out of Wikipedia:
- Introduction
- The five pillars of Wikipedia
- Contributing to Wikipedia
- How to edit a page
- Help pages
- How to write a great article
- Editor's index to Wikipedia
Also, when you post on talk pages you should sign your name using four tildes (~~~~); that should automatically produce your username and the date after your post.
I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! If you have any questions, feel free to leave me a message on my talk page, consult Wikipedia:Questions, or place {{helpme}} on your talk page and ask your question there.
Again, welcome! --Demiurge1000 (talk) 16:58, 21 September 2014 (UTC)
- Wow thanks very much for the cookies. You shouldn't have :-) They look delicious.
- Thank you for your kind words. I'm still finding my fins in the sea of WP, and editing as much as I can. I think the more editing I do the more interesting it will be as I start to interact with other users. It's been a positive experience so far. Oh and thanks for the links. I'll have a read when I get a chance. Marvinthefish (talk) 12:43, 22 September 2014 (UTC)
