Hello, Ishrat Sultana, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Adam and I work with the Wiki Education Foundation; I help support students who are editing as part of a class assignment.

I hope you enjoy editing here. If you haven't already done so, please check out the student training library, which introduces you to editing and Wikipedia's core principles. You may also want to check out the Teahouse, a community of Wikipedia editors dedicated to helping new users. Below are some resources to help you get started editing.

  • You can find answers to many student questions on our Q&A site, ask.wikiedu.org

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me on my talk page. Adam (Wiki Ed) (talk) 18:27, 13 October 2016 (UTC)Reply

  Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Central Park. Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been undone.

Please ensure you are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, and please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive. Continual disruptive editing may result in loss of editing privileges. Thank you. General Ization Talk 19:49, 3 November 2016 (UTC)Reply

  • Ishrat, I see you are working on an assignment. Please note that you must include inline citations on any content you add to the article; so far, you have repeatedly failed to do so. In addition, please see if you can better integrate your addition into the article text. Most of what you've added would be far better at the end of the section, after the existing historical narrative, rather than where you have placed it. Last, in your citation, please include a link to the online version of the article you are citing, using the url= parameter. It is here. General Ization Talk 19:53, 3 November 2016 (UTC)Reply
  • Also, when challenged by another Wiki editor, you should discuss your changes with them, not just repeatedly reinsert your addition to the article. The fact that you are working on an assignment doesn't exempt you from the prohibition on edit-warring, which will result in your account being blocked.
