[edit] Adoption

I have been looking for someone who I can Adopt. I think that you could be the right person. If you agree, post a message on my User talk:Mahanga. :) Mahanga^Talk 18:31, 17 April 2007 (UTC)

Hi Dinny! Well, there's no "course", so it's really up to you as to where to go from here. How comfortable are you in editing Wikipedia? Do you understand the syntax, infoboxes, bullet points, categories, templates? If not, take a look at Wikipedia:Tutorial. Are you interested in writing articles, proofreading, maintenance tasks, verification? Let me know.

I see that you're from Australia. Perhaps you'd like to join the Australian WikiProject or one of many WikiProjects (including Nintendo).

If you don't know what to do, I've made a list of some maintenance tasks that can get you comfortable editing WP.

New user tasks

• Copyedit articles
• Join a Wikiproject
• Get adopted and learn the ropes
• Add links to words
• Revert vandalism
• Write an article
• Sort stubs

I'm available to answer any questions. I know that's a lot. If you'd like, we can discuss things via instant messenger. Enjoy Wikipedia! Mahanga^Talk 01:29, 18 April 2007 (UTC)
