Hello, This is one of two pages that hold templates for beginners team members. Comments on the pages have either been made a generic notes on what to put where, or more eleborate with ## which won't display unless you look at the source of a page. These are examples, if you want to make use of them, copy them to your own homepage and then edit them to your liking. Do not apply changes to this page, merely push edit, copy the source and cancel. Be creative, see other people's pages and make it your own by altering it.

== About Me ==

## This section is where you should talk about your screen name and how you came to use it. It doesn't need to be an ##essay, one or two lines would be fine. You should also list how you first came across Ubuntu. For example:

My screen name is partially derived from the colour of my hair, Silver. I also like foxes, hence Silver Fox. Nothing else to say really about it, sorry that their is no big mystery :)

Ubuntu was first introduced to me by a colleague and since then it has become my operating system of choice. From tentative steps I feel that I am now quite confident with it. I have managed to successfully introduce a few friends to the operating system and now serve as their immediate access to help.

=== Socially ===

## You are a person, tell people what you do for fun. Not everything on your wiki has to be about computers or Ubuntu.

Socially I try to stay fit and active. My fitness regime includes Running, Cycling, Swimming and Badminton. I am also a keen snooker and pool player. Playing Snooker and Pool for the local pub team is my way of relaxing whilst at the same time socializing with friends.

I am not really a film buff, but can appreciate good cinema. I do however like music, especially from the 60's era.

=== Professionally ===

## This section is the place to talk about what you do for a living or if you are a student talk a little about your ##course. You could also say what job you would eventually like to have.

I'm an IT professional working in the United Kingdom. I have been working as web developer and database administrator in a very small development team. Our latest project is a web information system that has been written primerilly in php.

## This section is also a great place to tell people if you use Ubuntu for professional purposes. For example:

In recent months I have been making use of a WUBI install of Ubuntu on a work computer. This first hand experience has given me the unique perspective to critically evaluate its uses. I find it an ideal way of introducing Microsoft Windows users to the operating system. I eagerly wait for MUBI to be released (similar to WUBI except for Apple Macs)


== Ubuntu Participation ==

## This section is very important. It is the place where you group all you list all your contributions to Ubuntu and its ##Community.

=== Beginners Team ===

## Note that headings with 3 = do not place a horizontal line across the page. Here is an example of what you may wish to ##write here:

I am not a member of the Beginners Team yet. I am currently in the process of joinig it and have (insert a name as a master. I wish to join this team because (insert reasons). I aim to become a team member by (insert a date).

=== Ubuntu Forums ===

## This sub section is an overview of your forum contributions. It should have a link to your profile as well as a ##description of which sub forums you tend to post in. This overview should also include information such as approx number ##of posts and join date.

==== Unanswered Posts Team ====

## If you are a member of any forum teams then this is where to say so. List the teams you are a member of, what they ##seek to achieve and how you help. For example:

I am not a member of this team at present. I believe that I could contribute to this team as I have a diverse skill/knowledge base that may be of benefit to others.
   
=== UK Local Community Team ===

## Are you a member of any Local Teams? If so, put it here. Describe what you do for the team and why you joined it.

=== Internet Relay Chat ===

## Do you use IRC regurlarly? If so, post your registered nickname and the channels you are often present in. For example:

My registered IRC nickname is Silver_Fox_. I am looking forward to getting to know the Ubuntu community members better through this medium. I am usually present in the following channels:

 1. #ubuntuforums
 2. #ubuntu-beginners
 3. #ubuntu-beginners-YNU
 4. #ubuntu-beginners-help
 5. #ubuntu-uk


== Linux User Group (LUG) ==

## Are you a member of any Linux User Groups? If you are let people know, not everything on your wiki has to be centered ##around Ubuntu. Anything to do with open source is also good thing to tell people about. For example:

I do not attend any LUG's currently, though it is something I would like to get involved with. I hope to find out more about any LUG's near to me and attend a meeting soon.

== Goals For The Future ==

## This should be a list of a few things that you would like to achieve in the near and far future. It can also be things ##that you would like to sustain.

## List items should be in the format demonstrated below.

 1. Continue to post in support sections of the ubuntu forums
 2. Continue to get Friends and Family trying Ubuntu
 3. Become an Ubuntu Beginners Team member
 4. Continue to offer assistance on IRC
 5. Join a LUG

== Testimonials ==

## If you decide to apply for Ubuntu Membership it is advised that you have some testimonials written by other people.

##You should leave this section empty.
