Welcome, newcomer!
Here are some useful tips to ease you into the Wikipedia experience:
- First, take a look at the Wikipedia Tutorial, and perhaps dabble a bit in the test area.
- When you have some free time, take a look at the Manual of Style and Policies and Guidelines. They can come in very handy!
- Remember to use a neutral point of view!
- If you need any help, feel free to post a question at the Help Desk
- Explore, be bold in editing pages, and, most importantly, have fun!
Also, here are some odds and ends that I find useful from time to time:
- Wikipedia:Policy Library
- Wikipedia:Utilities
- Wikipedia:Cite your sources
- Wikipedia:Verifiability
- Wikipedia:Wikiquette
- Wikipedia:Civility
- Wikipedia:Conflict resolution
- Wikipedia:Brilliant prose
- Wikipedia:Pages needing attention
- Wikipedia:Peer review
- Wikipedia:Bad jokes and other deleted nonsense
- Wikipedia:Village pump
- Wikipedia:Boilerplate text
Feel free to ask me anything the links and talk pages don't answer. You can most easily reach me by posting on my talk page.
You can sign your name on any page by typing 4 tildes, likes this: ~~~~.
Best of luck, and have fun!

Chemical warfare
[edit]Hello, Midwestarrival! I'm very glad to see that you've created a new user account.
I would like to ask you for one or two things:
- If you make any changes, it is customary to include edit summaries explaining you change, and why you changed it.
- On the table Template:Chemical warfare/CW table, the examples there are not meant to be an exhaustive list, and the text you have been adding is overly detailed, and not entirely correct (LSD, for example, has never been used as an incapacitating agent). Plus, the large amount of text you add doesn't format correctly in most browsers.
- Can you tell my why you repeatedly remove large chunks of text from chemical warfare, specifically the two-letter-code example table?
Many thanks, and again, welcome! – ClockworkSoul 18:37, 20 Mar 2005 (UTC)
