User talk:Felicity Tepper
Hi Felicity - good to have you here. Hope you have a good experience and find Appropedia useful, and have a chance to share your knowledge here as well.
Let me know if you have questions or need help. --Chriswaterguy 05:56, 7 January 2012 (PST)
[edit] Welcome!
Hi Felicity Tepper,
Welcome to the Appropedia wiki. Please make yourself at home! If you need a general wiki-tutorial, see the main help page (or the more in-depth one on WikiEducator).
Check your preferences and be sure you verify your email address and turn on email notification if you'd like it -- you can find out when your talk page, or any page on your watchlist, is modified. You may want to upload a photo or information about yourself to your userpage (which is at User:Felicity Tepper).
If you have a particular interest or project in mind, go ahead and start it! If you have questions or suggestions, the best place to leave them is at our community discussion page, which we call the Village pump - you should get a fast response. Or, feel free to leave me a note on my talk page if you have further questions, need help finding your way around, have a cool idea for a project, or just want to chat.
Glad to have you here!

[edit] Editing tips
Hi Felicity,
Nice starting articles! :-) As a newcomer here, I thought you might find the Help:Editing page useful. (I also do a little copyediting here and there. ;-) Here are a couple of examples.
Places to visit (as external links)
Places to visit (as wikilinks)
When starting new articles, we try to add at least one category at the bottom of the page. That (plus adding wikilinks to and from related articles) helps readers find it. For example, I added Category:Sustainable development and a few wikilinks to the cool Human Sustainable Development Index article you started.
Let me know if you have any questions and I'll be glad to help. :-) --RichardF 07:45, 11 January 2012 (PST)
- Felicity, glad to see you're getting the hand of this. I'm really happy to see your additions to Appropedia, and it's fine if you concentrate on that and we tidy the wiki markup... but if you pick up the general ideas as suggested by RichardF, even better :).
- A small additional tip - to add a category, e.g. Food crops, we write it as [[Category:Food crops]] - but to display it, we add a colon - [[:Category:Food crops]], which looks like Category:Food crops. (I had to use "nowiki" tags there to show the wiki markup.)
- But the main thing is that it's great to have you with us, contributing here. Thanks. --Chriswaterguy 06:16, 17 February 2012 (PST)
