Come visit the Teahouse

The Teahouse is a friendly place to help new editors become accustomed to Wikipedia culture, ask questions, and develop community relationships. Memorize this shortcut to get to the Teahouse quickly: WP:THQ = Wikipedia:Tea House Questions.

  • Ask questions about using Wikipedia and volunteers will respond as soon as possible.
  • Visit the Teahouse to learn from other new editors' questions, and the replies from experts.
  • Contribute an answer to a Teahouse question as you learn more about editing Wikipedia.
