[edit] Plea for help
Hello! I am a regular contributor on several wikia sites, but I am new to this particular site, so I will need a little help ‘breaking in’ lol. I do not really need help with the basics, I just mainly need somebody there to help with wikipedia policies so I am looking for a mentor of sorts =) I am sure there was a code to attract someone, but I don’t know it! If somebody could please set this up, it would be much appreciated. Thank you x Andromache 08:14, 21 May 2008 (UTC)
- Hi Andromache – I saw your comment, and if nobody has already offered, I’ll gladly be your mentor. Just leave me a message on my talk page and I will sort it out for you. All the best, TheMoridian 08:46, 21 May 2008 (UTC)

- Hi again, I’ve added the adoption templates to our userpages, so I’m now your mentor (although in wikipedia jargon I’m your ‘’adopter’’). You say you’re already experienced with the basics, so I’ll skip straight to the policies on wikipedia. It would take way too long to learn every policy off by heart, so I’d just recommend sticking to what you would expect – for example, don’t make personal attacks, don’t vandalise, don’t have more than one account etc. etc. This is what I do, and I haven’t got into any crises yet – and usually, if there is a special policy regarding a certain area of wikipedia, it will be stated clearly somewhere!
- I won’t be actively teaching you about wikipedia, as you already know most of what I would teach – but if your ever need any help at all, feel free to ask on my talk page! I’ll keep an eye on how you’re doing, and if I have any advice .etc, I’ll let you know! All the best, TheMoridian 09:18, 21 May 2008 (UTC)
