From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
==Welcome== Hello Waltmorton and welcome to Wikipedia! I'm glad you've chosen to join us. This is a great project with lots of dedicated people, which might seem intimidating at times, but don't let anything discourage you. Be bold!, explore, and contribute. Try to be civil by following simple rules and signing your talk comments with ~~~~ but never forget that one of our central tenets is to ignore all rules.
If you want to learn more, Wikipedia:Tutorial is the place to go, but eventually the following links might also come in handy:

Float around until you find something that tickles your fancy. One easy way to do this is to hit the random page button in the navigation bar to the left. Additionally, the Community Portal offers a more structured way to become acquainted with the many great committees and groups that focus on specific tasks. My personal favorite stomping grounds are Wikipedia:Translation into English as well as the cleanup, welcoming, and counter-vandalism committees. Finally, the Wikimedia Foundation has several other wiki projects that you might enjoy. If you have any more questions, always feel free to ask me anything on my talk page. Again, welcome! -- Draeco 22:51, 13 February 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Gion article
Hey Waltmorton, I removed your contribution to the Gion article as they recounted a personal experience and were not really befitting of an encyclopaedia article as they were written in the first person. Since you've been there, you have a wealth of experience the rest of us don't have. Would you mind re-writing it in a third-person narrative? I guess an example would be instead of using "In a recent tourist visit to the Gion, 4/18/2006, as I walked the twilight streets I saw a few older geisha", one might consider something along the lines of "even today it is not uncommon for a tourist visiting Gion to encounter geisha..." Hope this helps... and thanks for the contribution!
