From 2004 to 2007 this page was a place for new users to introduce themselves.

{{collapse top|title=Original instructions from while the page was active}}
'''Hi, and [[Wikipedia:Introduction|welcome]] to Wikipedia!''' If you're new to our community, drop us a note here and tell us a little bit about yourself.  Most important, we would like to know about your interests, your areas of knowledge, and the sorts of things you'd like to work on here at Wikipedia. That makes it easier for us to help you start [[Wikipedia:How to edit|editing]]. We'd also appreciate it if you told us how you found out about Wikipedia.

:: '''To add yourself to the list''':
::* '''post a comment, '''
::* enter your name as the subject/headline (which will make a new header for you in the log), and
::* '''<U>sign your name</u> at the end of your comment <U>by typing four tildes</u>: <nowiki>~~~~</nowiki>.''' (This code makes a link to your user page, which readers can use to welcome you personally if they like).
::Your comments will then be added to the bottom of the list.'''

You may also like to add yourself to [[Wikipedia:Wikipedians|other lists]], such as the [[Wikipedia:List of Wikipedians in order of arrival|listing in order of arrival]], [[Wikipedia:Wikipedians#Listing by country|by country]], or [[Wikipedia:Wikipedians#Skills-based listings|by skills]] (such as translation or photography).  Finally, if you want a little personal assistance in using or contributing to the site, you might go through one of the [[Wikipedia:Bootcamp|Bootcamp]]s or you may wish to be [[WP:ADOPT|adopted]] by an experienced editor.
