From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Welcome to Wikipedia!
Welcome to Wikipedia, Vbartilucci! I'm Xinoph. I noticed that you were new and/or have yet to receive any messages so I just thought I'd pop in to say "hello". Wikipedia can be a little intimidating at first, since it's so big but we won't bite so Be Bold and get what you know down about U.S. politics! If you do make a mistake, that's fine, we'll assume good faith and just correct you: it'll take a few seconds maximum! Here, however, are a few links to get you started:
- How to edit a page
- Editing, policy, conduct, and structure tutorial
- Picture tutorial
- How to write a great article
There are lots of policies and guidelines to get to grips with but they all make your life easier and your stay more fun in the long run. If you have any questions, feel free to leave me a message on my talk page. Please be sure to sign your posts on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~) to produce your name and the current date, along with a link to your user page. This way, others know when you left a message and how to find you. It's easier than having to type out your name, right? ;)
I hope you enjoy contributing to Wikipedia. We can use all the help we can get! Have a great time, all the best, sayonara and good luck!
When editing an article on Wikipedia there is a small field labelled "Edit summary" under the main edit-box. It looks like this:
The text written here will appear on the Recent changes page, in the page revision history, on the diff page, and in the watchlists of users who are watching that article. See m:Help:Edit summary for full information on this feature.
When you leave the edit summary blank, some of your edits could be mistaken for vandalism and may be reverted, so please always briefly summarize your edits, especially when you are making subtle but important changes, like changing dates or numbers. Thank you. JoaoRicardotalk 03:59, 22 December 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Crisis/Multiverse commentary
I edited down your recent addition to Crisis on Infinite Earths for two reasons. The main one is that the Multiverse (DC Comics) is already described in its own article, which is linked to in the first paragraph; if a Wikipedia reader doesn't know what that is, they can read about it there. The second is that it strayed a bit from the Neutral Point of View that Wikipedia requires; statements such as "Crisis really began..." and especially "Something needed to be done" are analysis or opinions, which shouldn't be introduced into the text of an article.
