Welcome to Wikipedia
Hello, Rhstokes, and welcome to Wikipedia! Wikipedia is one of the world's fastest growing internet sites. We aim to build the biggest and most comprehensive encyclopaedia in the world. To date we have over four million articles in a host of languages. The English language Wikipedia alone has over one million articles! But we still need more! Please feel free to contribute your knowledge and expertise to our site.
If you need help see:
Here are a few more good links for newcomers:
We hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using three tildes (~~~), or four (~~~~) if you want date stamp; this will automatically produce your name and the date. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or place {{helpme}} on your talk page and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions.
Welcome to the project! We will certainly welcome any contributions you can make. One thing in particular is now open for discussion. There is a new discussion at Wikipedia:WikiProject South Dakota/Assessment/Top-importance articles where I am hoping we will be able to decide which of the articles which fall within the scope of the project should be officially counted as being of "top-importance" to the project. Any and all comments are welcome. And, again, if you ever have any questions, please feel free to contact me.
Again, welcome! MBisanzBot (talk) 22:01, 22 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] License tagging for Image:Northern.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Northern.jpg. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.
For more information on using images, see the following pages:
This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 20:08, 12 December 2006 (UTC)
