|Welcome to Wikipedia!

Hello Josh Schultz23. welcome to Wikipedia!  My name is  and I am an online ambassador for your Writing 101 class.

If you haven't already, I'd like to encourage you to read the Wikipedia:United States Education Program's instructions for students.  I can help you become familiar with Wikipedia and work on your assignment.  If you ever need help, do not hesitate to ask.

If you'd like to get acquainted with Wikipedia, you could have a look at:
The five pillars of Wikipedia
Tutorial
How to edit a page
How to write a great article
Manual of Style

If you ever need my help, you can get in touch with me...
through my talk page here on Wikipedia.
by emailing me using this page.

When asking for help, please remember...
Provide a link to the article you are working on (if you are having trouble with a specific issue).
Provide a detailed question, so that I can provide the best support I can.
Whenever you post on a user's talk page, please remember sign your messages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically insert your username and the date, so the other user knows who posted the message, and when.

Links...
Course page: Wikipedia:USEP/Courses/Writing 101 (University of Montana-Western)

I hope you and your class enjoy editing here and will be Wikipedians long after this term!  Remember, if you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask!  + c
