Editing

[edit]
  • See: Help:Editing for an explanation on how to edit and save.
  • See the WP:CHEATSHEET and Help:Wiki markup for more information on the wikicode.
  • Wikipedia is about links - internal links and external links. WP:LINKS; internal links: not to little, not to much; external links: always in a separate section at the bottom (or in references).
  • Work through the tutorial, or get some practice in your own sandbox, to get used to the elementary syntax. And often look at other pages, to see how experienced Wikipedians have done things.

Some details

[edit]
  • Make a list of pages that you find useful; on your user page or a subpage. For instance: try to make a link to this page (then it's no longer a poor little orphan). You can also make a short list of pages that are related to your field of study. Make a list of useful literature.
  • Templates: for instance: infobox
  • Citations and referencing: Help:Introduction_to_referencing/1
  • For citations you can use Template:Cite book or Template:Cite journal or Template:Citation or Template:Cite web
  • if you're not in the Main namespace, please sign your posts!
  • redirects and disambiguation pages
  • Make a watchlist - WP:WATCH

 
 

Help!

[edit]
  • There are lots of help-pages; a good start is the help button in the left column.
  • Don't hesitate to ask advice from experienced editors; use their talk pages. You can also visit the Teahouse.
  • The Manual of Style: WP:MoS; and a nice Beginners' guide to MoS.
