Welcome, Gojira95
This is serious. READ IT.
Before making your first article look over ED:101. If you don't, it is unlikely that your article will survive for more than sixty seconds and you risk being banned by ED Sysops.
We realize a lot of you are busy or may be new to ED, so here's just the most important info:
- Read ED:101. Seriously. The information contained within is invaluable. Further tutorials of use can be found here.
- To answer a message, reply on the user's talk page (Tab at the top that says 'discussion').
- Sign your comments by using four tildes (like this ~~~~)
- These are the sysops. If you have a problem, talk to them. They're here to help; we promise.
- The TJC is the community portal. It's linked to from every page; just look at the top left of the page. Check it daily.
- Use Special:Upload to upload pictures. Be sure to give them meaningful names. Also, do not upload any CP or Bestiality pr0n or you will be b&.
- Feeling social? Enjoy forums? Join here.
- See ED:HELP and ED:POLICY for everything else.

Heads up
I noticed your contributions to the Godzilla article, and I just wanted to give you a few editing suggestions! You should read over ED:101 and ED:Help before contributing any more content to the article, or any article in general until you you have a good grasp on the information included in the documents. However, I will outline for you some main editing tips:
- Don't add red links to articles. Check to see if an article actually exists in the namespace you are linking to, or it will show up as a red link, and nobody likes those.
- Don't capitalize or bold random words or phrases within an article. It doesn't emphasize anything, but makes the page look messy and reads like a 4chan post. In short, don't do it.
- Use pipes accordingly and sparingly. Don't pipe to pages that don't make sense for the article, don't make useless pipes like this:
[[Main Page|main page]]
, and don't pipe whole sentences. Pipes should only be about 2-3 words long. - Don't add autoplay to articles. Ever.
- If a shitty article can be improved, don't tag it for deathnotice, but try to improve it yourself. We would appreciate it if you tried to revive a dead page rather than simply putting {{shit}} or {{deathnotice}} on it.
- Use the preview button, even if you make a minimal change, so you can be sure you didn't make any mistakes.
Everything addressed here can be found in the documents listed above, and I hope you have a good experience on ED in the future. If you have any questions, don't be afraid to ask a sysop, they're here to help! Happy editing!

- Thank you, friend! I've been trying my hardest to work on that article, and I apologise for my mistakes. --Gojira95 16:02, 22 June 2015 (EDT)
Hey, don't worry about it. We can improve in many different ways, in fact, we'll be learning new things every day until we're dead! We all make mistakes, but improvement is the ultimate key to success. ― Deceptive 16:17, 22 June 2015 (EDT)
- Very true, very true indeed. It's honestly been an uphill battle in working with that article, because Carmen thought he was being funny, when in reality he wasn't, and I was having to work with his mess.--Gojira95 16:39, 22 June 2015 (EDT)
