Thank you Figma for the welcome. I'm new to editing content, so thanks for the links to help pages. So far so good but eventually I would like to write some pages.

helpme

Hi there. You had the helpme template on your page, how can I help? --Ali K 07:22, 14 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry... I don't need help. I thought that this is the only way to communicate with you by using the helpme template. I just wanted to thank the person who welcomed me. Please tell me how I should answer you without making it look like I need help. Thanks.

The helpme template links to a channel in IRC where Wikipedians try and answer any questions that you have. If you would like to communicate with people, you can do this through their Talk Page. In this case, the page you are after is Figma's talk page. --Ali K 07:57, 14 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I don't understand the warning. I am not spamming. I am not adding promotional material or links to commercial sites. I am only adding external links to educational articles on a non-profit educational web site. Is that prohibited? Please advise. I will not continue to add links if this is not allowed.
