Hello, welcome to Wikipedia. Here's some tips:
- You can introduce yourself on the new users page.
- You can sign your name using three tildes, like ~~~. If you use four, you can add a datestamp too.
- Remember to use the show preview button before you save a page.
- If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page.
Other useful pages are: how to edit, how to write a great article, naming conventions, manual of style and the Wikipedia policies.
I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Angela. 22:49, Apr 6, 2004 (UTC)

Apple and grammar
FYI, in British English, it is common usage to treat collective nouns (e.g. Apple, Parliament) as plural, since they refer to a group of people, not just one. In effect, the speaker is saying that "the people who comprise Apple Corporation" (plural) did something. Since Wikipedia doesn't take sides on British vs. American usage, either could be correct here. Tverbeek 11:01, 4 May 2005 (UTC)
