Welcome to Wikipedia!

Hello, OliviaMcCabe, and welcome to Wikipedia! It was good to meet at the virtual meetup. The areas we mentioned wereWP:FAC andWP:DYK Thank you foryour contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are some tips that you might find helpful:

  • Link to other articles with [[double square brackets]]
  • Add pictures fromWikimedia Commons using [[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! ]]
    • Click here for an exercise in adding images to articles.
  • Now you know how to add pictures to Wikipedia, why not add your own?This shows you articles that are near you. Is there one without a picture or where you could take a better one? In many countries modern buildings are still copyrighted, but not in the UK and some other places.This is the upload page on Wikimedia Commons.
  • Add headings with ==double equal signs==
    • If an article has sections two editors can edit different sections simultaneously without edit conflicts. Four or more sections and you get atable of contents.
    • Here are articles where you can practice adding sections when you've finished splitting an article into sections you can delete {{sections|date=Month year}} from the top of the page.
      • ===subheadings are similar===
  • When you add information to Wikipedia please summarize things in your own words, and tell us where you got the information from in the following format <ref>[The webpage, book or magazine you are citing, a description, the word "retrieved" and today's date]</ref>
  • If you find unreferenced information on Wikipedia that you consider dubious or unlikely, first try to reference it yourself. If you know it is wrong, correct it, if you can't find a source then {{fact}} adds the famous [citation needed]. If, after a week no-one has referenced the information, feel free to remove it.
  • ''Double single quotes'' gives youItalic and '''triple quotes'''Bold.

Many Wikipedians organise themselves by subject area, we have hundreds of WikiProjects ranging fromArts toZoology, and I'm sure there will be ones that fit your interests. A good place to look for them isCategory:WikiProjects by topic, alternatively the talkpages of articles you are interested in may have links to relevant Wikiprojects.

Please remember tosign your messages ontalk pages by typing fourtildes (~~~~); this adds your username and the date. If you need help, check outWikipedia:Questions, visitThe Teahouse, ask me on my talk page, orask for help on your talk page, and a volunteer should respond shortly. Again, welcome!ϢereSpielChequers19:37, 25 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks @WereSpielChequers! It was great to meet you briefly. I'd love to be involved in any future meet ups. I'll definitely use all your useful tips in dipping my toes in the Wiki Waters. I'll also have a look and see which projects I can join. Thanks once again, Olivia :-)OliviaMcCabe (talk)22:01, 31 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
