hi i'm i'd like to personally welcome you and thank you for your contributions thus far as you probably know wikipedia is a free encyclopedia collaboratively written entirely by volunteers if you ever see anything that can be improved be it correcting a typo or writing a new article don't be afraid to fix it yourself don't worry about making mistakes one of the many editors will probably notice and quickly correct it if you have any questions just place the text helpme on your talk page and an administrator will help you shortly alternatively you could join the wikipedia en help irc channel where dozens of friendly helpers await you can find out more about the project here but i won't bore you with statistics and rules just remember to be civil to other editors to always cite your sources and to write articles from a neutral point of view and you should be good to go wikipedia is a huge website with articles it is the single biggest encyclopedia in the world additionally there are thousands of policy and process pages so it can be a bit overwhelming even to experienced users when i was new i found the tutorial particularly helpful you might also want to check out the glossary this page serves as our library reference desk where you can ask nearly any question imaginable the featured articles and good article pages are good places to look for some of our most well written and comprehensive articles on the other end of the spectrum we have thousands of articles that require cleanup of some sort so feel free to help out in particular many biographies of living persons need to be sourced properly while this task can be a bit difficult it's of a highly important nature i hope you've found this advice helpful feel free to contact me for more information '''''' talk
