If you are a new editor...
...I'd recommend reading these essays:
- Wikipedia is in the real world. Actions have consequences, and things written on the internet are hard to take back.
- Ten Simple Rules for Women in Red. This essay contains very good, concise, and generally applicable advice on article creation. It takes 2 minutes to read and I'd recommend it to anyone creating their first article (on any topic).
...and here is some personal advice:
- Your combination of knowledge, culture, and experience is unique in the world. You could contribute something valuable to Wikipedia. If you want to do so, the best time to start is now.

- The referencing template
Template:R is a neat and readable way of invoking references. It can take multiple arguments. For example: {{r|ref1|ref2}} is equivalent to <ref name="ref1" /><ref name="ref2" />.
- List-defined references
References don't need to be defined inline. See WP:LDR, or see User:GanzKnusper/ldr for an example.
