You can test out editing in the sandbox if you'd like. If you need help to get going, the forum is one option. That's also where we discuss policy and proposals. You can ask any user or the editors for help, too. Just put a note on their "talk" page. Again, welcome and have fun!

Hayford, good to see you fast at work already! If you give me the exact diff at wikipedia that you parsed the article from, I can help to verify that you wrote most of it, then we might be able to take off the "content is form WP" from the bottom of the page. Also, did you see CZ:Introduction to CZ for Wikipedians. Leave a message on my talk about the wikipedia diff and I'll see what I can do. --Matt Innis (Talk) 20:39, 11 May 2007 (CDT)
Okay, I looked through the history and saw that you definitely wrote most of it, but I think we would have to go back further before we could take off the checkbox. Such a shame :-) You wrote most of it for sure. Though, if you make enough changes that it no longer resembles the wikipedia article, we can still take off the checkbox. You can look at it again once you've finished cleaning it up. Don't forget to add the CZ:The Article Checklist to your articles! It helps your workgroup keep track of the status of articles so you can get them approved. If you need help on the first one, let me know. --Matt Innis (Talk) 22:00, 11 May 2007 (CDT)
