Wikipedia Boot Camp, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type {{helpme}} on your user page, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Here are a few good links for newcomers:

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and vote pages using three tildes, like this: ~~~. Four tildes (~~~~) produces your name and the current date. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. Again, welcome!

Your edit to going commando
In a recent edit to the page going commando, you changed one or more words from one international variety of English to another. Because Wikipedia has readers from all over the world, our policy is to respect other forms of English in Wikipedia articles.
For subjects exclusively related to Britain (for example, a famous British person), use British English. For something related to the United States in the same way, use American English. If it is an international topic, use the same form of English the original author used.
In view of that, please don't change articles from one version of English to the other, even if you don't normally use the version the article is written in. Respect other people's versions of English. They in turn should respect yours. Other general guidelines on how Wikipedia articles are written can be found in the Wikipedia:Manual of Style. If you have any queries about all this, just ask anyone on Wikipedia and they will help you. Thank you. — Feezo (Talk) 18:36, 1 May 2007 (UTC)
Welcome to Wikipedia and thank you for
your contributions. However, I noticed that your username (Rd@cotswold-it.co.uk) may not meet Wikipedia's
username policy because it is an email address. If you believe that your username does not violate our policy, please leave a note here explaining why. As an alternative, you may ask for a
change of username, or you may simply create a new account to use for editing. Thank you.

- You can feel free to ignore this, your username is fine as it was registered before the prohibition of email addresses as usernames. We don't allow them anymore mostly for a technical reason (the @ symbol can be problematic, though not in your case), as well as to prevent spam. If you would like to change your username, you can request it be changed at WP:CHU, but there is no reason for you to feel pressured to do so. Prodego talk 21:06, 8 January 2012 (UTC)
