Wikinoah English:Welcome, newcomers

Welcome to Wikinoah!

Wikinoah is an encyclopedia written collaboratively by its readers. The site is a wiki, meaning that anyone, including you, can edit almost any article right now by clicking on the edit this page link that appears at the top of the page. The following article is a brief introduction to Wikinoah.

Browsing Wikinoah

Wikinoah has 812 articles on all sorts of subjects ranging from politics, science, history, music, religion, pop culture, and sports to everything and anything in between. Try browsing the various subjects right now, on the Wikinoah browsebar above. If you need assistance getting around, see this basic navigation guide.

Searching

You can also search for text in articles. Just go to the "search" field to the left, enter your search term and click "search". Note that the built-in search function may be disabled in times of server overload; in these cases you will be redirected to a Google-based search of the Wikinoah database. There are also other ways to search Wikinoah.

If you read something that you really like, then why not drop a note on the article's talk page? First select the discussion link (look for it in the tabs above the page) to get to the talk page. Then select edit this page on the talk page, or click the + to the right of edit this page to simply add a new comment.

If there's something we don't cover, or you're having difficulty finding what you're looking for, and you need to ask somebody, go to Wikinoah:Questions for a list of our departments where volunteers answer all kinds of questions - any question you could possibly think of really. Or, if you notice a topic missing from Wikinoah you could add it to our list of requested articles. Find other ways to explore Wikinoah or... write an article yourself.
