You can also sign your name using three tildes, like this: ~~~. If you use four, you can add a datestamp too.
You might find these links helpful in creating new pages or helping with the tasks below: How to edit a page, How to write a great article, Naming conventions, Manual of Style. You should read our policies at some point too.
You can help improve the articles listed below! This list updates frequently, so check back here for more tasks to try. (See Wikipedia:Maintenance or the Task Center for further information.)
Help counter systemic bias by creating new articles on important women.
Help improve popular pages, especially those of low quality.
If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian!
Again, welcome!
P.S. Also, your edits to India are well written, and interesting, but they seem to be replacing a somewhat negative view of India's wars with a definitely positive point-of-view about the nation's modern history. I want to urge you to make it more balanced, and definitely restore the factual information.
One of our most important pronciples is to keep a neutral point of view. You can also get input from other editors on by leaving a message at Talk:India.

History of India
[edit]Before you make any substantial edits to a sensitive topic like this, it is always a good policy to write it out on the talk page, as this avoids unneccesary edit wars with other editors. I have proposed a new paragraph at Talk:India. You can comment on this on the talk page. kaal 23:34, 9 Mar 2005 (UTC)
British vs. American spellings
[edit]Because this is an international project, the basic standard is that the article uses whichever standard it was started with , with the exception that thing such as Labour Party and Secretary of Labor retain their actual spelling. The detailed explanation is at Wikipedia:Spelling#National varieties of English
