Willkommen / Welcome

Hello and welcome! It appears that you either do not understand the German language, or only at a basic level. This is a welcome message to introduce you to the German Wikipedia, providing you with links to the important places and departments you may wish to consult and visit.

• The Wikipedia:Botschaft (embassy) is a place where you can ask questions in your native language. People with the appropriate language skills will then try to get a communication going between you and those who can answer your request.
• The German equivalent of the village pump is Wikipedia:Fragen zur Wikipedia (translated as questions regarding Wikipedia), which can be used to ask questions and discuss matters of all sorts directly related to Wikipedia. Feel free to ask questions in your preferred language, but questions in English will probably get quicker responses than those asked in less common languages. For general knowledge questions not necessarily related to Wikipedia, there is the Wikipedia:Auskunft (inquiry board).
• The Wikipedia:Mentorenprogramm (mentorship project) is open to new users who have difficulties with editing or need advice. Many of our mentors are proficient in more than one language.
• For your userpage: You might want to create your userpage and leave a short introduction and Babel boxes on it, so that other editors can know more about you and the languages you speak. For example: “{{Babel|en|de-0}}” shows that you are a native English speaker and do not understand the German language at all. You can list as many languages as you like and rate your proficiency in them from 1 (beginner) to 4 (expert).
• Frequently-made requests: Request to take over an existing user account at Meta • Request a local Bot flag at de:wiki.

Want to help out? One thing you could do would be to improve the welcome template you are reading right now, to help more editors like you who speak little or no German. If you would have preferred to have been welcomed in your own language rather than in English, feel free to create a translated version of this template or ask for help with translating.

Once again, welcome, and happy editing! -- Oesterreicher12 (Diskussion) 20:24, 18. Apr. 2020 (CEST)
