Some common sense Do's and Don'ts:

  Do be civil
  Do keep cool!
  Do maintain a neutral point of view
  Don't spam
  Don't infringe copyright
  Don't edit where you have a conflict of interest
  Don't vandalize

If you need further help, you can:

  Ask an experienced editor to "adopt" you

Alternatively, leave me a message at my talk page or type {{helpme}} here on your talk page, and someone will try to help.

There are many ways you can contribute to Wikipedia. Here are a few ideas:
  Fight vandalism
  Be a WikiFairy or a WikiGnome
  Help contribute to articles
           
  Perform maintenance tasks
  Become a member of a project that interests you
  Help design new templates

Remember to always sign your posts on talk pages. You can do this either by clicking on the button on the edit toolbar or by typing four tildes (~~~~) at the end of your post. This will automatically insert your signature, a link to this (your talk) page, and a timestamp.

The best way to learn about something is to experience it. Explore, learn, contribute, and don't forget to have some fun!
To get some practice editing you can use a sandbox. You can create your own private sandbox for use any time. Perfect for working on bigger projects. Then for easy access in the future, you can put {{My sandbox}} on your user page. By the way, seeing as you haven't created a user page yet, simply click here to start it.

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute to Wikipedia, at least one of your recent edits appears to have been inappropriate, and has been reverted. Please feel free to use the sandbox for any test edits you would like to make, and read the welcome page to learn more about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. Thank you.

Information icon Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia. Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted or removed. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Administrators have the ability to block users from editing if they repeatedly engage in vandalism. Thank you.

Signing posts

[edit]

Please see Wikipedia:Signatures#Using_four_tildes. Placing '{{unsigned}}' after your posts, as you have been doing not only fails to add your signature and a datestamp, but expands to an unreadable mess reading '[[User:{{{1}}}|{{{1}}}]] ([[User talk:{{{1}}}|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/{{{1}}}|contribs]])' AndyTheGrump (talk) 22:06, 30 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Wholegood, in the future just type four tildes after each of your talk page posts like this: ~~~~

A word of warning

[edit]

One more edit like this [1] and I am going to raise your editing behaviour at WP:ANI, and propose that you be blocked indefinitely, as the troll you clearly are. AndyTheGrump (talk) 21:50, 31 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

And please refrain from describing the comments of other editors as lousy, just because you may not understand them. Martinevans123 (talk) 12:53, 1 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Blocked

Right, you're here to stir and we're not playing this game. Cas Liber (talk · contribs) 14:13, 2 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
