From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Hello, new editor!
Hello, there! I'm Aplucas0703, and I've been assigned as your mentor. All new accounts are randomly assigned a mentor from a list of volunteers. Please reach out to me when you have questions! I love helping new editors navigate this website. Remember, anyone can edit Wikipedia, but that doesn't mean that anything goes; we have policies in place to protect you, other editors, and the integrity of the encyclopedia. You aren't expected to know every rule and policy, or every tool, or everything about Wikipedia. You can just start editing where you feel comfortable. If you make a mistake, someone else will likely fix it and kindly let you know of your error and how to avoid it in the future. We're very happy to have you as a new editor who can help improve and expand this encyclopedia, because there is still a lot to do around here!
If you need my help at anytime, reach out through the dashboard on your user homepage or directly by starting a new conversation on my talk page.
Here are a few bullet points
- You can use your user homepage to find new edits you can make to improve Wikipedia.
- Wikipedia encourages editors to be bold. This means you don't need to wait for permission to fix things or feel tied down by an edit you want to make being "too big". However, don't edit war if someone else reverts it; discuss it instead.
- Assume good faith from other editors, even when you disagree with their decisions or perspectives.
- You can use the talk page of any article to discuss the content and structure of the article. (Talk pages aren't a forum about the topic, it is to discuss what a Wikipedia page should include or how a page should be formatted, etc.)
- You will gain new privileges as you gain more experience. Some of these are automatic, others can be requested and given by an administrator.
- Visit the task center to find some things to work on, or visit the backlog to find some tasks that need to be done. If you want some help finding tasks, you can also ask me!
- There are many gadgets and user scripts that can help automate edits that would otherwise be tedious to make. You can turn on certain gadgets in your user preferences, and find user scripts at this list of user scripts. The most essential and commonly used gadget is Twinkle, which can be turned on in your preferences. The "install scripts" gadget will make installing user scripts much easier.
