Welcome to Wikipedia, the greatest encyclopedia on Earth! You seem to be off to a good start. Hopefully you will soon join the vast army of Wikipediholics! You may wish to review the welcome page, tutorial, and stylebook, as well as the avoiding common mistakes and Wikipedia is not pages. You may also want to check out Wikipedia:Merge, for information about merging, renaming and moving pages. The Wikipedia directory is also quite useful. In addition, you might want to add yourself to the new user log; if you made any edits before getting an account, you may wish to assign those to your username.

By the way, an important tip: To sign comments on talk pages, simply type four tildes, like this: ~~~~. This will automatically add your name and the time after your comments.

Finally, here are some open tasks:

Melbourne and regional meetups

edit

Hi Pegasi195, there will be a public meeting of Wikimedia Australia in Melbourne on 6 January, and I am also planning meetups in Shepparton and Albury-Wodonga if you are interested in meeting a few wiki folk or keen to help the development of our wmau:2013 Annual Plan before it is locked in.
