[edit] Welcome
Hello, Johnandrus, and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the New contributors' help page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type {{helpme}} and your question on your user talk page, and someone will show up shortly to answer. Here are a few good links for newcomers:

- Manual of Style
I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! By the way, you can sign your name on talk and vote pages using four tildes, like this: ~~~~. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. Again, welcome! --Geniac 21:16, 13 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Some answers
Re: Your questions on my talk page...
- "how did you find me? How did you know I edited something today?" -- Because you edited Wikipedia:Articles for creation/2006-10-31, which I have on my watchlist.
- "Why doesn't the search function find my article?" -- Although nobody owns articles, I assume you mean S.M. Lockridge... Well, I've added a link to Shadrach and Lockridge, both disambiguation pages, so anybody searching on his first or last name will find him that way.
Let me know if you need more help. --Geniac 05:06, 14 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Preview
I would like to thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. However, it is recommended that you use the preview button before you save; this helps you find any errors you have made, and prevents clogging up recent changes and the page history. Thanks again. --Geniac 05:48, 14 December 2006 (UTC)
