User talk:ElliottHoffman

Welcome!

Hi fellow Wikipedian, and a warm welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you have enjoyed editing as much as I did so far and decide to stay. Unfamiliar with the features and workings of Wikipedia? Don't fret! Be Bold! Here's some good links for your reference and that'll get you started in no time!

Editing tutorial, learn to have fun with Wikipedia.

Picture tutorial, instructions on uploading images.

How to write a great article, to make it an featured article status.

Manual of Style, how articles should be written.

Most Wikipedians would prefer to just work on articles of their own interest. But if you have some free time to spare, here are some open tasks that you may want to help out :

RC Patrol - Keeping a lookout for vandalism.

Cleanup - Help make unreadable articles readable.

Requests - Wanted on WP, but hasn't been created.

Merge - Combining duplicate articles into one.

Wikiprojects - So many to join, so many to choose from...Take your pick!

Oh yes, don't forget to sign when you write on talk pages, simply type four tildes, like this: (~~~~). This will automatically add your name and the time after your comments. And finally, if you have any questions or doubts, don't hesitate to contact me on my talk page. Once again, welcome! =)- Mailer Diablo 10:47, 14 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I love the pictures - they really look encyclopædic. By the way, note that somebody ;) started the McCollumn Hall "discussion page" - maybe you'd like to add some notes there about the article, etc - it's sort of the "comments" - people can discuss, but on a non-controversial issue like this one, it'd just be a good place for the author to state his intent and anything he needs help with. I'm looking forward to your user page (which your Usertalk (i.e. this) is actually the "discussion page" of). Speaking of comments, there's a way to insert more code-style (inline, basically) comments in the wiki code (actually called wiki markup (cf. HTML), which yes, you can put on your resume), but I've never done it. Adam Mathias 15:56, 15 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
