Welcome!

Hello, HopieG, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are some pages that you might find helpful:

There is a group of folks who are focused on Mesoamerican articles. Their home page is at Wikipedia:WikiProject Mesoamerica. They also keep a list of needed-but-unwritten articles here (look at the bottom of the page).

I would also be available to help when/if needed.

Hope this helps, Madman (talk) 22:22, 17 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks so much! Yeah, I'm new here...you probably can tell. Thanks for the info and ttyl

Photos are always welcome

[edit]

Another way you can contribute to Wikipedia is by uploading photos of Mesoamerican artifacts and sites. It can be difficult to take a good photo of a museum artifact, what with the glass reflections and the (usual) need to use ambient lighting (no flash), but there's nothing like a photo to show describe a culture.

Also, only the most tourist-y archaeological sites articles have photos.

Just a thought . . . Madman (talk) 14:20, 20 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]


Well, i've certainly got many photos from Teotihuacan and Mexico's Museum of Anthropology that are pretty good for my topics of interest. i just might have to upload a few some time! Thnx again HopieG (talk) 16:31, 21 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
