You don't need to read anything - anybody can edit; just go to an article and edit it.
Be Bold, but please don't put silly stuff in - it will be removed very quickly, and will annoy people.
Ask for help.
Talk to us live, or edit this page, put {{helpme}} and describe what help you need. Someone will reply very quickly - usually within a few minutes.
Edit existing articles, before you make your own. Look at some subjects that you know about, and see if you can make them a bit better. For example,
Wikipedia:Cleanup#2009.
When you're ready, read about
Your first article. It should be about something well-known, and it will need references.
Good luck with editing; please drop me a line some time on
my own talk page.
I think it could be handy for you to browse through some of the links below so as to become more familiar with how Wikipedia works. If you need any help you can ask me on my talk page, or place {{helpme}} on your talk page and another
Wikipedian will show up shortly. Please remember to
sign your name on talk pages by clicking or by typing four tildes "~~~~"; this will automatically produce your name and the date. If you're already loving Wikipedia and plan on becoming a Wikipedian you might consider being "
adopted" by a more experienced editor, just paste {{Adoptme}} into your
userpage and you will gladly be adopted! You might also consider joining a
WikiProject so as to collaborate with others in creating and improving articles of your interest. Click
here for a directory of all the WikiProjects. Finally, please do your best to always fill in the
edit summary field. Happy editing and once again, welcome to the fantastic world of Wikipedia!
