Welcome!
[edit]Hello, User, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one of your contributions was not an appropriate use of our article talk pages. Wikipedia talk pages should only be used to discuss changes to the article, and all content must be verifiable in reliable sources.
There is a page outlining out talk page guidelines, which explains what is and isn't acceptable at talk pages, and how best to use them. If you find yourself in a difficult position, please visit the help desk, where experienced editors can answer any questions you have. Or, to ask for help on your talk page, and a volunteer should respond soon. Below are a few more good links for new editors:
- The five pillars of Wikipedia
- Contributing to Wikipedia
- How to edit a page
- Help pages
- Tutorial
- How to write a great article
- Simplified Manual of Style
I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name and the date. If you have any questions, check out Wikipedia:Questions or ask me on my talk page. Again, welcome!
