[edit] Welcome to the Wikipedia

Welcome, newcomer!

Here are some useful tips to ease you into the Wikipedia experience:

• First, take a look at the Wikipedia Tutorial, and perhaps dabble a bit in the test area.
• When you have some free time, take a look at the Manual of Style and Policies and Guidelines. They can come in very handy!
• Remember to use a neutral point of view!
• If you need any help, feel free to post a question at the Help Desk
• Explore, be bold in editing pages, and, most importantly, have fun!

Also, here are some odds and ends that I find useful from time to time:

• Wikipedia:Policy Library
• Wikipedia:Utilities
• Wikipedia:Cite your sources
• Wikipedia:Verifiability
• Wikipedia:Wikiquette
• Wikipedia:Civility
• Wikipedia:Conflict resolution
• Wikipedia:Brilliant prose
• Wikipedia:Pages needing attention
• Wikipedia:Peer review
• Wikipedia:Bad jokes and other deleted nonsense
• Wikipedia:Village pump
• Wikipedia:Boilerplate text

Feel free to ask me anything the links and talk pages don't answer. You can most easily reach me by posting on my talk page.

You can sign your name on any page by typing 4 tildes, likes this: ~~~~.

Best of luck, and have fun!

[edit] Table of contents to the right?

Hi! I was wondering why you think table of contents to the right is not appropriate for the SETI page. Without it, I get large expanses of white next to the table of contents, both with IE and Mozilla/Firefox, at a number of display resolutions. While TOCRight is not perfect (in particular IE on low-res displays does not fill very well) it always looks at least as good as the default, which is not very appealing at all with the defaults. Fold in the fact that most users will never scroll down, and see only what shows up initially, and I'd think you'd have a strong case for flowing the text around the table of contents. Is there a better way to do this than TOCRight? LouScheffer 05:58, 20 February 2006 (UTC)

Mumps - closing my comment. I thought I made that ages ago though. Midgley 14:46, 22 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] JET Programme

Hi there. I saw on your Userpage that you applied to the JET Programme for this year. Were you successful? If so you might be interested in my idea about creating a new wiki related to the JET Programme over at Wikia.com. It is just in the idea stage at the moment but I'd be interested to hear what you think. Cheers, Bobo12345 12:17, 16 October 2006 (UTC)
