Welcome edit

Hello, Elwhoelwu and welcome to Wikipedia! It appears you are participating in a class project. If you haven't done so already, we encourage you to go through our training for students. Go through our online training for students

If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or ask your question on this page and then place {{Help me}} before the question. Please also read this helpful advice for students.

Before you create an article, make sure you understand what kind of articles are accepted here. Remember: Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, and while many topics are encyclopedic, some things are not.

Your instructor or professor may wish to set up a course page, and if your class doesn't already have one please tell your instructor about that. It is highly recommended that you place this text: {{Educational assignment}} on the talk page of any articles you are working on as part of your Wikipedia-related course assignment. This will let other editors know this article is a subject of an educational assignment and aid your communication with them.

We hope you like it here and encourage you to stay even after your assignment is finished! ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 20:49, 30 August 2022 (UTC)Reply

September 2022 edit

  Welcome to Wikipedia, and thank you for your contributions. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, please note that there is a Manual of Style that should be followed to maintain a consistent, encyclopedic appearance. Deviating from this style, as you did in American green tree frog, disturbs uniformity among articles and may cause readability or accessibility problems. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. Mr.weedle (talk) 23:50, 20 September 2022 (UTC)Reply

DYK for Moor frog edit

On 4 December 2022, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Moor frog, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that in one experiment in which moor frogs were frozen solid to −16 °C (3 °F) and then thawed, a small percentage survived? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Moor frog. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Moor frog), and the hook may be added to the statistics page after its run on the Main Page has completed. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.
