Welcome edit

Hi Seadragonconquerer, and welcome to Wikipedia. I've seen some of your recent edits and thought I'd make some helpful pointers. For example, it is usually helpful to write an edit summary (just above the save button) before saving, so people reviewing the edits can have an idea of what's going on (I'm careless in this respect). Also, if you use the preview button to check your changes before saving that is usually also appreciated by the community, otherwise the "edit history" becomes very cluttered. Other than that there are a number of policies, some more and some less official that govern what we edit. For example, in order to make sure that the encyclopedia does not get filled up with home-brewed theories WP:OR everything we write must be verifiable back to a reliable source, preferably something published by an academic, and we have a policy for that Wikipedia:Verifiability. This is why it is important that we cite everything, if you think anything might be in any way controversial, please cite it, otherwise it is very easily deleted.

Below I attach the template a friendly soul put on my homepage when I first started editing some years ago, maybe some of the links could be useful to keep. Happy editing. --Stor stark7 Speak 23:52, 11 May 2010 (UTC)Reply

Re: Georg Konrad Morgen edit

Important documentation is missing from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Georg_Konrad_Morgen for quotations and specific details in the description of the Poniatowa massacre. These details do not appear in the volume that cited in footnote 1. Please provide references for these quotations and incidents. User talk:Jdvelleman 10:53, 26 May 2011 (CET)
