Hi, glad to have you contributing! A couple of tips: 1) For copyright reasons, any page which is an adapted version of a Wikipedia original (unless it consists ''only'' of stuff you personally wrote, down to the last ','), you have to check the "Content is from Wikipedia?" box so they get the appropriate credit link (which the GFDL requires). 2) For pages which are 100.000% your content (i.e. no need to check the box), but which also appear on Wikipedia, the {{tl|WPAuthor}} template can be placed at the head of the talk page to verify that for copyright purposes. And again, welcome! [[User:J. Noel Chiappa|J. Noel Chiappa]] 12:44, 1 June 2008 (CDT)

You can test out editing in the sandbox if you'd like. If you need help to get going, the forum is one option. That's also where we discuss policy and proposals. You can ask any administrator for help, too. Just put a note on their "talk" page. Again, welcome and have fun!

You can find some more information about our collaboration groups if you follow this link CZ:Workgroups.You can always ask me on my talk page or others about how to proceed or any other question you might have.
