Welcome to Wikipedia!
Hello Nsteinberg, welcome to Wikipedia!
Here are some tips:
- Take a look at the Simplified Ruleset.
- Read the Tutorial, How to edit a page and the Manual of Style.
- Find out how to revert, move and merge pages.
- Sign your posts on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~).
- Add yourself to the New user log and a regional notice board
- Ask questions at the Village pump or Help desk.
- Use the Show preview button
- Provide an Edit summary
- Add the correct image copyright tag to any images you upload
- Create a User page
- Be bold
- Ignore all rules
If you feel a change is needed, feel free to make it yourself! Wikipedia is a wiki, so anyone (yourself included) can edit any article by following the Edit this page link. Wikipedia convention is to be bold and not be afraid of making mistakes. If you're not sure how editing works, have a look at How to edit a page, or try out the Sandbox to test your editing skills.
If, for some reason, you are unable to fix a problem yourself, feel free to ask someone else to do it. Wikipedia has a vibrant community of contributors who have a wide range of skills and specialties, and many of them would be glad to help. As well as the wiki community pages there are IRC Channels, where you are more than welcome to ask for assistance.
If you have any questions, feel free to ask me on my talk page. Thanks and happy editing, Alphax τεχ 07:51, 26 September 2005 (UTC)
Disambiguation link notification for January 21
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Caligula, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Liberty cap (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.
It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 12:23, 21 January 2014 (UTC)
Proposed deletion function is not the system to delete poorly sourced articles about notable companies. I removed the prod tag. Bearian (talk)
Welcome
Welcome to Wikipedia. We have compiled a list of guidance for new editors:
- Use high quality sources for medical content. This is described at WP:MEDRS. High quality sources include review articles (note this is not the same as peer reviewed), position statements from national and internationally recognized bodies (think CDC, WHO, NICE, FDA, etc), and major medical textbooks. Lower quality sources may be removed.
- References go after not before punctuation (see WP:MOS)
- We use very few capital letters and very little bolding. Only the first word of a heading is usually capitalized.
- Do not use the url from the inside net of your university library. The rest of the world cannot see it.
- If you use textbooks we need page numbers.
- Please format your references as explained at WP:MEDHOW or like the ones already in the article. This is simple once you get the PMID / ISBN.
- Every sentence can be referenced. We reference more densely than other sources.
- Never "copy and paste" from sources. We run copy and paste detection software on new edits.
- Section order typically follows the instructions here at WP:MEDMOS
- Please talk to us. Wikipedia works by collaboration and this takes place on the talk pages of both articles and user.
Again welcome and thank you for joining us.
P.S. Please share this with your fellow learners and instructors.
