[edit] Welcome to the Wikipedia!

Hello, and Welcome to the Wikipedia, Apostle Tau! Hope you enjoy editing here and becoming a Wikipedian! Here are a few perfunctory tips to hasten your acculturation into the Wikipedia experience:

And some odds and ends: Boilerplate text, Brilliant prose, Cite your sources, Civility, Conflict resolution, How to edit a page, How to write a great article, Pages needing attention, Peer review, Policy Library, Utilities, Verifiability, Village pump, and Wikiquette; also, you can sign your name on any page by typing 4 tildes: ~~~~.

Best of luck, Apostle Tau, and most importantly, have fun! --Muéro(talk/c) 04:02, 11 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Comments on hockey team pages

Thanks for the suggestions on the hockey team talk pages. I plan to try to fix some of the things you mentioned. But first let me tell you something important another Wikipedia editor told me when I was still new: Be bold! The Wikipedia community encourages users to be bold when updating articles. Wikis like ours develop faster when everybody helps to fix problems, correct grammar, add facts, make sure the wording is accurate, etc. We expect everyone to be bold. How many times have you read something and thought, "Why aren't these pages copy-edited?" Wikipedia not only allows you to add, revise, and edit the article — it wants you to do it. It does require some amount of politeness, but it works. You will see. Also, of course, others here will edit what you write. Do not take it personally. They, like all of us, just want to make Wikipedia as good as it can possibly be. So if you feel up to it, go ahead and try to fix what you've noticed. Even if you make mistakes, they're easy to fix and it will help you become a better and better editor quickly. I look forward to seeing you around the hockey-related articles and let's see how good we can make them. --Muéro(talk/c) 04:12, 11 August 2007 (UTC)

From the Members

Welcome to the Sixth issue of the WikiProject Christianity newsletter! Use this newsletter as a mechanism to inform yourselves about progress at the project and please be inspired to take more active roles in what we do.

Luckily, you all won't have to see my comments very often, as very little I have to say is really that important. But I would like to take the opportunity to say that I hope everyone finds the new General Forum page useful for discussing ideas relevant to Christianity in general, and feels free to make any additional comments regarding general Christianity there. Also, if any of you feel that you want to place a comment here in the future, please let us know what you want included. We would encourage all members to get more involved and if you are wondering what with, please ask. Use this newsletter as a mechanism to inform yourselves about progress at the project and please be inspired to take more active roles in what we do.
