[edit] Re: adoption

Sure I can show you the ropes. I can be long winded sometimes, but I can answer your questions regarding Wikipedia. I assume you found me from the Wikipedia:Adopt-a-User, if that's the case, you'll probably want to add {{adoptee|Guyinblack25}} to your user page. If I may ask, is there a particular topic or type of articles you're looking to edit? (Guyinblack25 ^talk 20:21, 4 December 2007 (UTC))

Good to hear, editing something you're interested in or are connected to is good motivation to make sure it's of good quality. Any questions, whether they be about policy, writing style, formating wiki code, or whatever, feel free to ask. (Guyinblack25 ^talk 16:22, 5 December 2007 (UTC))
