Let's do it properly!

Hello and welcome to Wikibooks!

Here are some tips to help you get started:
 * You can sign your name on Talk and vote pages using four tildes, like this: &#126;&#126;&#126;&#126;.
 * Remember to conduct any editing experiments in the sandbox.
 * If you're a Wikipedian, see Wikibooks for Wikipedians for a primer on how things work here (it's a little different).
 * If you want to base your work here on materials from Wikipedia, please use WB:RFI to bring the material over in compliance with the GFDL.
 * If you're an instructor and plan on using wikibooks for a class project, see Guidelines for class projects
 * Please say hello at the Staff Lounge with any questions or ideas.
 * Eventually, you might want to read the Manual of Style and Policies and Guidelines.
 * Please take a look at Naming policy before starting a new book.
 * Remember to maintain a Neutral point of view.
 * Explore, be bold in editing pages, and have fun!

You will find more resources in Community Portal. If you want to ask a question, visit the Study help desk, the Staff lounge, IRC channel or ask me personally on my talk page.

Portal, WP & WB
Hi

I guess the first thing is that that things are not the same here as WP. Hard to really put into words but stick around and you will see. There are considerably less contributors so less active pages to "chat" on such as WP portals. Look around - talk pages on Computer science bookshelf, All bookshelves or Community Portal may help however the staff lounge gets as much traffic as anywhere else. All the best -- Herby talk thyme 13:18, 17 November 2006 (UTC)

Template:Registry
I was just wondering if this template should rather have a different, possibly more descriptive, name.

Also, it could use a "usage" section. I'm of the school of creating sub-pages for usage. That way, the template and usage section histories aren't mixed and usage sections of protected pages can still be edited. To prevent the usage section from being displayed, use the tag (the  is also an interesting one). --Swift 18:08, 31 December 2006 (UTC)
