I'm having so much trouble understanding the numerous and myriad of all Wiki user pages, sub-pages, contribution "types", etiquette, formatting protocols and much more. I am asking the editorial committee, or those with the responsibility of helping, governing, supervising and communicating with new "wiki-users/contributors" if it would be best to "suspend" my account without cutting off my access to reading ALL published help contents for new user accounts? I'm definitely worth it for I am an intellectual with over 40 years of dedicated research into everything that I was interested in, curious about and an unquenchable desire to learn anything and everything that could be found in all venues of public documentation.
I just need time to read all published help categories for new users so that I can contribute without errors. It would be best to respond to me directly via my email, which I believe you have. Reason: I don't even know how to access other user communications left on my way talk page except by accident or luck.
I hope I've posted this correctly on my user talk page so that my dilemma can be found by those who can help in any way.

Note: I'm a new user on Wiki, and am stuck, trying to find a tutorial that explains, step by step, how to proceed once account has been created and email confirmed. I understand I need to create a "Talk" page, but searching for how to CREATE a talk page for new user accounts yeilded only some information, but not how to create, a "checklist" for new user accounts, listing all steps for required user pages, talk pages, articles, etc.
Personally, I recommend that such a tutorial be created - a basic outline, listing first things to do and complete, as well as detailed steps on how to do each. Then, I recommend that a tutorial is written that will be required for the new user to read. The contents will aim at:
This is a brief first draft of both my newly created talk page, and a top-level brief outline of my recommendation for Wiki to consider creating for new users a standardized "Welcome New User - Account Manual," so to speak.
Please also consider, if this suggestion is approved and implemented, that before any new user is permitted the access to edit all or any pages, aside from their own, created as part of the new account set-up, a final "quiz" must be taken and passed with a score of 80/100 -just an example-. TBC...
