Hi, welcome to Wikipedia!

I noticed you have created the Guide to Editing. There are many similar pages such as Help:Editing, Wikipedia:How to edit a page, Wikipedia:Tutorial and Help:Starting a new page. There are also a number of style guidelines - see my post here, where I propose merging some/all of them. I feel that your guide is unnecessary duplication. Please note there is a Welcoming committee which tries to provide notices to new users such as this:

Welcome!

Hello, Chuck Marean/Archive1, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are a few good links for newcomers:

Sorry no one has got around to you previously. I felt you might be trying to create something akin to the message above. I have taken the liberty of changing Guide to Editing to use a table I found on another Wikimedia Foundation site. I like it, but don't quite know where it should go on Wikipedia, and I thought the page would provide a good location (at least temporarily). If you want your page back, revert my changes. Finally, if you are interested in editing the help pages, consider joining the Wikipedia:Help Project. Feel free to talk to me if you need any help whilst editing Wikipedia!

a few helpful pages:

Welcome page
The five pillars of Wikipedia
What Wikipedia is not
Wikipedia policies and guidelines and Wikipedia simplified ruleset
Assume good faith
Stay cool and be civil
While you should be bold with edits, it is best to discuss and draft significant graphical layout overhauls

As always, please let me know if I can help in any way. --mtz206 (talk) 03:36, 8 July 2006 (UTC)
