Just a little side note: when editing, it's polite to include something in the summary that says what you've done -- for example, if you add a new solution to a task, it's nice to put something like "added language" in the summary so that others can see what you've done. -- Eriksiers 20:11, 10 April 2010 (UTC)

No sweat. Everyone has to start somewhere. Mediawiki has a pretty thorough guide to all things related to editing here. Might want to look through there.
Another thing. It's courteous to sign what you post on talk pages by adding --~~~~ (that's 2 dashes and 4 tildes) at the end of what you've written. It'll automagically add your sig (or your username and timestamp, if you don't have a sig defined).
