Welcome to Wikibooks, Mis306!

First steps tutorial

Wikibooks is for freely-licensed collaboratively-developed textbooks.
You don't need technical skills in order to contribute here. Be bold contributing and assume good faith about the intentions of others. Remember, this is a wiki, so you're allowed to change just about anything, and changes can be made easily. Come introduce yourself to everyone, and let us know what interests you.

If you're coming here from other Wikimedia projects, you should read our primer for Wikimedians to get quickly up-to-speed.

Getting help

• See the Wikibooks help pages for common issues.
• Remember, every edit is saved, so if you make mistakes, you can revert to an earlier version if needed.
• Get help from the community in the Reading room or in our IRC channel.
• You cannot upload an image until you have been a member for at least 4 days. If your upload is tagged with {{nld}}, {{bfu}}, or {{nfur}}, please read the template message as it explains the violation of our media policy. Please be sure to provide the required {{information}}: a license tag and source citation are always required; fair use images require a {{fair use rationale}}. Get help in the user assistance room.

Goodies, tips and tricks

• Please fill in the edit summary and preview your edits before saving.
• Sign your name on discussion pages by typing ~~~~
• User scripts can make many tasks easier. Look at the Gadgets tab of my preferences; check off the boxes for the scripts you want, and hit save!

Made a mistake?

• Please make sure you follow our naming policy - modules should be named like Book Title/Chapter Title.
• Need to rename a page? Use the move tab (only become available once your account is 4 days old - until then, ask for help).
• To get a page deleted, add {{delete|your reason for requesting deletion}} to the top of the page.
• If something you wrote was deleted, please read the deletion policy, and check the deletion log to find out why. Also check the VFD archives if applicable. You can request undeletion at WB:VFU, or ask the administrator who deleted the page.

File upload

Thanks for your upload of the GIMP icon. Please note that the Wikimedia projects have a shared repository at Wikimedia Commons. Please check it for images before uploading them here. Images at Commons (such as File:The GIMP icon - gnome.svg) can be used transparently here at Wikibooks.

Also, take special care in ensuring that they are correctly licensed. The one you uploaded wasn't.

Happy editing, --Swift (talk) 02:54, 17 April 2009 (UTC)
