Welcome to Wikibooks, What no2000!

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, or read Using Wikibooks for a more user-friendly introduction to the project.
• 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 user assistance room or in our IRC channel.
• Files must be uploaded to Wikimedia Commons, unless they are copyrighted and need to be uploaded here under fair use. If you need to upload a fair use file, you may request permission to do so. Please be sure to provide the required {{information}}: a license tag and source are always required; fair use images require a {{fair use rationale}}.

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 becomes 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 RFD archives if applicable. You can request undeletion at WB:RFU, or ask the administrator who deleted the page.

July 2010

We welcome and appreciate your contributions, including your edits to Chess/Strategy, but some of your recent actions differ from the way things are normally done at Wikibooks. Using Wikibooks can be helpful in learning more about conventions. In a recent edit, you changed one or more words from one international variety of English to another. Because Wikibooks has readers from all over the world, our policy is to respect national varieties of English in books. For subjects exclusively related to Britain, use British English. For something related to the United States in the same way, use American English. For something related to other English-speaking countries, such as Canada, Australia, or New Zealand, use the appropriate variety of English used there. If it is an international topic, use the same form of English the original author used. In view of that, please don't change pages from one version of English to the other, even if you don't normally use the version the page is written in. Respect other people's versions of English. They in turn should respect yours. Other general guidelines on how Wikibooks books are written can be found in the Wikibooks:Manual of Style. Thank you. – Adrignola talk 12:00, 10 July 2010 (UTC)

Adding US dictionary to Firefox in addition to British, hopefully that should cover most differences in spelling. --What no2000 (talk) 12:14, 10 July 2010 (UTC)
