Hello, Gibbon

Welcome to Glottopedia!

How to...

We hope you will enjoy working here. If you need help, just drop me (or another user) a message on the talk page. When you want to start a new article, please make sure that the topic is suitable for Glottopedia. If you have no idea how to write an article you can test the Wiki syntax in our Sandbox. Please read (at least) the first paragraph of our handbook.

When you once finished editing an article, please use the Show preview button at the bottom of the edit window so that you can make sure that your formating and layout works as you want. Try to fill the Summary field whenever you edit a page. That will help others to understand what you have done.

Your Identity

As we do not allow anonymous contributions, we ask you to state on your personal user page at least your full (real) name and your linguistic affiliation (otherwise we may have to block or delete your account).

Please sign all your posts on talk (discussion) pages by using --~~~~. The four tildes are changed into your personal signature by the software when you save the page. (Do not use signatures in articles, though.)

Editing

To prevent abuse by spammers, newly registered accounts cannot create new pages (apart from discussion/talk pages) for the first 48 hours. You can, however, edit existing pages right from the start.
