editHello, GeoffRodman and welcome to Wikipedia! It appears you are participating in a class project. We encourage you to read our instructions for students. Your instructor or professor may wish to participate in either the School and University WikiProject or the Global Education Program.

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your messages on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically insert your username and the date. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or ask your question on this page and then place {{Helpme}} before the question.
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.
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 should be treated accordingly.
We hope you like it here and encourage you to stay even after your assignment is finished! Pharaoh of the Wizards (talk) 15:36, 10 September 2012 (UTC)

Hi GeoffRodman, thanks for your excellent work on psychology of music preference. You might have seen that Smallman12q nominated the article to appear on the front page, through the "did you know?" system. I reviewed the nomination, and I think the article is ready, but I suggested some possible changes to the "hook" (the sentence that will actually appear on the front page)— I came here to let you know because thought perhaps you might want to weigh in. Cheers! groupuscule (talk) 00:24, 6 November 2012 (UTC)
DYK for Psychology of music preference
edit | On 10 November 2012, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Psychology of music preference, which you created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that openness correlates with liking jazz and that extraversion correlates with liking pop? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Psychology of music preference. You are welcome to check how many hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, quick check) and it will be added to DYKSTATS if it got over 5,000. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page. |
