Welcome!

Hello, Tug81154, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Shalor 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. Shalor (Wiki Ed) (talk) 13:51, 29 August 2019 (UTC)Reply


Sandbox

edit

Hi! You said that you weren't able to edit on your sandbox - can you give me some details about this? Also, can you email me at shalor wikiedu.org with your response? I may need you to send me a screenshot of what you are seeing when you try to edit. Shalor (Wiki Ed) (talk) 18:19, 22 October 2019 (UTC)Reply

Sourcing

edit

Hi! Quick note - Wikipedia cannot be used to source itself, as anyone can edit the site. Because of this, it will never be in a state where it would really ever be usable as a reliable source to back up claims. Also, as the claim was in the lead and was sourced later in the article, it's not really necessary to source it in the lead section. It's an easy mistake to make, so I just wanted to give you a head's up. Shalor (Wiki Ed) (talk) 09:18, 20 November 2019 (UTC)Reply

Citing

edit

You don't need to cite a wikipedia page link to the subject you already linked. TurboSonic (talk) 22:33, 8 December 2019 (UTC)Reply
