User talk:Clay Mario

Welcome, Clay Mario!

Welcome to the Super Mario Wiki!, the official and most complete wiki for everything Mario. I'm Glitchman, and let me just say that we're glad to have you as a member. If you have any questions whatsoever, feel free to post them on the FAQ talk page, or you could ask an experienced user and/or Sysop. If it's a problem that you can't fix yourself (e.g. the Mario Kart DS page needs to be rewritten but I've never played the game), try posting a message in the Trouble Center.

The following pages provide information and rules about reading, authoring, and participating in the Super Mario Wiki community, so it would be best if you read most of them. If this is your first time visiting, reading the Introduction may help you to get started.

Things you can do

• Start an article.
• See what you shouldn't do in an article.
• Create your user page.
• Communicate in our chatroom.

As you can see, we have plenty of features to offer, on the wiki side and on the community side. Feel free to chat in (you guessed it) the Chatroom, post your ideas and friend codes for games and such on the Forum, and read our community newspaper, the 'Shroom. If you want to get involved in editing and in the community, you may want to:

• Join the Maintenance Comittee
• Write for The 'Shroom
• Sign up for a PipeProject

However, before you just sign up for these things willy-nilly just because you want to be apart of it, read about each one thoroughly before making the decision to sign up. For example, if you choose to write for the 'Shroom community newspaper, you must write your section and turn it in to the director EACH MONTH, so it's actually a big committment.

Don't be afraid to delete this message when you're done reading it. After all, your user space belongs to you. I hope this information was helpful to you, and that you'll have a great experience contributing to our knowledge-base and our community. Remember to enjoy your experience here and also have fun!

Also, if you need further help, feel free to leave a message at a welcome committee member's talk page (such as myself).

Sincerely,
