Welcome to Simple English Wikipedia

Hi, ShakingSpirit, welcome to Simple English Wikipedia! Thank you for your changes. If you need help, check out the Help section of Wikipedia, or leave a message on my talk page. Whenever leaving messages on talk pages, please remember to sign your name by typing four 'tildes' (like this: ~~~~); doing this makes your name and the date show up. Also, it helps if you write something in the box that says 'edit summary' whenever you change an article. Below are some useful links to make your time here simpler. Happy editing!

"Where do I start?"

Try Wikipedia:Simple talk. There, you can ask questions about the SEWP community, have other editors help you around, and generally sit down, have a soothing cup of coffee, and chat about the community. Just remember to keep it simple! :) --Dylan620 ^{Review me} 20:08, 24 April 2009 (UTC)

"What should I read?"

You should start out by reading the links given to you in the welcome template. --Dylan620 ^{Review me} 20:08, 24 April 2009 (UTC)

"What are the main differences between enwiki and simple, both in policy and community?"

Not terribly much, but SEWP is a lot calmer and more peaceful, and gives banned users from ENWP a second one-strike chance. --Dylan620 ^{Review me} 20:08, 24 April 2009 (UTC)

"Are there any wikiprojects you think I could help with?"

I don't know if you're interested, but please... --Dylan620 ^{Review me} 20:08, 24 April 2009 (UTC)

"Could you mentor/adopt me?"

If you want I can help you here on simple. I am every day online. Best Regards, Barras (talk) 20:11, 24 April 2009 (UTC)

I too am on that list, and would be glad to help on an informal basis. i.e. If you have a question, I'll be glad to answer it. If I don't know the answer, I know someone who does. (Handy in real life too.) Kennedy (talk) 21:19, 24 April 2009 (UTC)
