George, it is a good idea to have a [[Help:How to write a great article|well-written article]] which pulls together information about various [[:Category:Non-Orthodox|non-Orthodox]] groups in terms of their relation to Orthodoxy, and how to address their questions about Orthodoxy, as well as how to provide an example of how to live an Orthodox life.  Keep in mind that, except for the [[:Category:Contributed Articles|complete articles]] contributed to OrthodoxWiki which have been protected from editing, improvements and standardizations should be expected for any article.  In other words, read what's already here to get a good idea of what this is [[OrthodoxWiki:About|about]] (''[[Ecumenism]]'', ''[[Evangelicalism]]'', and ''[[Introduction to Orthodox Christianity]]'' might be good places to start), get comfortable with the wiki-markup (see the welcome links above), and forge ahead.  If you'd like to enlist help, try posting your ideas at [[OrthodoxWiki:Help wanted]].

Welcome to OrthodoxWiki!

Hello, George, and welcome to OrthodoxWiki!

Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Please note that OrthodoxWiki is always in development, so not everything works quite right yet. You can help, though!

OrthodoxWiki is a community-edited encyclopedia of Orthodox Christianity. Articles are created and edited by our members, and so everything that we do here is subject to review and revision. The result is a true consensus product, with every interested editor contributing his own knowledge and writing skills. As such, when you feel that criticism of an article is warranted, we encourage you to join in and fix it! Don't worry about breaking anything or doing something wrong—the other editors here are happy to jump in and help you learn.

PLEASE read carefully the section of the Style Manual titled OrthodoxWiki:Style Manual (Point of View).

Also please note that other editors will assume that you have read the Style Manual (our official editing guidelines). If you're wondering why an edit was reverted, an article renamed, or any other unexpected changes were made by another editor, check there.

Please also take a few moments to edit your user page by clicking on your name here, so that we can know a bit about you: User:George. Feel free also to add your picture to the OrthodoxWiki:User gallery.

If you are uploading images, be sure you're doing so legally and according to OrthodoxWiki policy. Failure to abide by policy may result in your images getting deleted without warning.

If you would like to experiment with the wiki, please feel free to do so in the Sandbox.

By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and other discussion pages using three tildes, like this: ~~~. Four tildes (~~~~) produces your name and the current date. Please sign your comments on Talk pages, so everyone will easily be able to see who left them.

You'll have to verify your email address before editing any pages. This helps us prevent spam. Don't worry, your email won't be viewable to anyone but the sysops. We respect your privacy.

If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the Questions page, or ask me on my Talk page.

We hope you enjoy editing here and being a part of our community!

Witnessing to Non-Orthodox

George, it is a good idea to have a well-written article which pulls together information about various non-Orthodox groups in terms of their relation to Orthodoxy, and how to address their questions about Orthodoxy, as well as how to provide an example of how to live an Orthodox life. Keep in mind that, except for the complete articles contributed to OrthodoxWiki which have been protected from editing, improvements and standardizations should be expected for any article. In other words, read what's already here to get a good idea of what this is about (Ecumenism, Evangelicalism, and Introduction to Orthodox Christianity might be good places to start), get comfortable with the wiki-markup (see the welcome links above), and forge ahead. If you'd like to enlist help, try posting your ideas at OrthodoxWiki:Help wanted. [[User:Magda|—magda (talk)]] 10:14, 26 Aug 2005 (EDT)
