There are a few pages on Wikipedia that are really handy for editors to know about:
Help:Contents is the entry point for Wikipedia's help pages. (Also linked in the left-hand sidebar, as "Help".)
You can ask questions about using or editing Wikipedia at either the Help desk (shortcut WP:HD) or the Teahouse (shortcut WP:TH).
The Community portal (shortcut WP:CP) has information about where you can help out, and projects you can join. (Also found in the left-hand sidebar.)
The Village pump (shortcut WP:VP) is Wikipedia's central discussion forum, divided into five sub-forums: Policy, technical, proposals, idea lab and miscellaneous.
The Signpost (shortcut WP:POST) is Wikipedia's weekly community-written newspaper – a good way to keep up with goings-on in the community.
If you have an account and are logged in, you'll also see some useful links in the top right of your screen:
Your username takes you to your userpage, where you can add information about yourself.
"My talk" is your user talk page, where people can leave messages for you.
"My preferences" allows you to customize various settings of the wiki software, as well as change your password and email settings.
"My watchlist" lets you see recent changes to pages you are watching. You can watch a page by clicking the star tab at the top right of it.
