Please do not put comments on talk pages, even your own, as you have done. Wikipedia is not a social forum, and such comments are inappropriate. If you have any questions, go to my talk page. Cheers, BigBrotherIsWatchingYou (talk · contribs · count)

But anyway,

Welcome!

Hi, Bzkevin, and Welcome to Wikipedia!

Hello there Bzkevin, and welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. We're glad to have you in our community! Feel free to post questions on my talk page - I'm happy to help you with anything you need. If you need help (which I can’t answer), put {{helpme}} on your talk page. It is also a good idea to explain what your problem on Wikipedia is, it helps you and your helper!

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! If another Wikipedian criticizes what you have done check what Wikipedia is not to avoid this happening again/ever. If you have any questions or concerns, don't hesitate to see the help pages or add a question to the village pump. The Community Portal can also be very useful.

Additional tips

Here are some extra tips to help you get around in Wikipedia:

• If you want to play around with your new Wiki skills the Sandbox is for you.
• You can sign your name using four tildes (~). If your keyboard doesn't have tildes (or for whatever reason) you can also click the button on the bar above the editing section.

Tip of the day...

Navigation popups

The Navigation popups gadget allows easier access to several Wikipedia features as "popups" which appear when you hover the mouse over links. With this useful tool, when you hover your mouse cursor over a wikilink you can see a preview of the article or image; plus you can activate convenient functions such as going directly to the talk, edit, or history pages.

To use the navigation popups gadget you must be logged in under your own user account and turn on the gadget in your Preferences, available at the top right of your screen. In your preferences you will find navigation popups under Gadgets, Browsing gadgets. Full instructions are on the Navigation popups page.
