Welcome

Hello, Ajgee93 and welcome to Wikipedia! It appears you are participating in a class project. If you haven't done so already, we encourage you to go through our training for students. Your instructor or professor may wish to set up a course page, if your class doesn't already have one.

Go through our online training for students.

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. Please also read this helpful advice for students.

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! Yunshui 雲‍水 13:10, 9 October 2013 (UTC)

User:Mcconnelfamily

Could you please confirm whether or not you are the same person as User:Mcconnelfamily editing under a new account? It's not a problem if you are (you're entitled to create a new account to get around the username issue), but if you are, then there's no need to unblock the Mcconnellfamily account. I've left a similar message there; if one or other of you could get back to me I'll take the appropriate steps. Cheers, Yunshui 雲‍水 13:13, 9 October 2013 (UTC) Hi Yunshui, yes that is correct, I was editing on the Mcconnellfamily account before the username issue.. Ajgee93 (talk) 21:08, 9 October 2013 (UTC)ajgee93

Okay, that's great, thanks for letting me know. To avoid confusion, I'll leave your old account blocked and remove the unblock requests on the talkpage there - please use only this account in future! I'll also move the sandbox you're working on into your new userspace, to make it easier for you to access; it'll be located at User:Ajgee93/sandbox and can be accessed from the "Sandbox" link at the top of each screen. Looks like it'll be a pretty comprehensive piece when it's finished; I look forward to seeing it in the main article space.

It would be a good idea to put a note on this account's userpage to clarify that you had a previous account; that way everything's above-board and you won't get accusations of sockpuppetry coming your way.

If you need help with anything, or have any questions, feel free to drop me a line; my talkpage is thataway. You might also like to check out the Teahouse, which is a good place for new editors to get help and advice. All the best, Yunshui 雲‍水 22:37, 9 October 2013 (UTC)

Thanks for everything Yunshui, you have been so helpful, I will place a note about having a previous account on my page now. Thanks Ajgee93 (talk) 22:38, 13 October 2013 (UTC)ajgee93

Hi Ajgee93, I received your message about the McConnel Family page, and note that you have subsequently changed your name. My apologies for the late reply however I am new to Wikipedia (for the reason of your project) and am finding it difficult to use. I wanted to print the original page you had so that I could then make notes and notify you of the changes you need to make. Am I incorrect in thinking that you have deleted the entire page that you were working on? I am more than happy to help with this project, although I would like to know why you are undertaking a project on our family history, and what your intentions are in creating this page. As I have stated before we are happy to help with the content - as we want the correct information documented about our family - however we would like to know the reason behind your project. Perhaps contacting us directly at Cressbrook, or via my email address would be easier than using this medium? CressbrookMcConnel (talk) 10:00, 16 October 2013 (UTC)

Hi again, I have subsequently read a few more posts on your previous page, and note that you are completing a university assignment on our family history. I have been made aware of a person doing their thesis on Cressbrook by a third party who lives in Toogoolawah and was told that they would contact me in relation to this so that we could ensure that all content was correct. If you are in fact that person, are are simply another who is completing a university assignment on our family; I would again like to state that there is a lot of documentation about our family in the public sphere that is incorrect, government and museum publications included - that is obviously why I am trying in vain to get in contact with you. As I stated above, a medium other than wikipedia would be appreciated - either contact Cressbrook directly or let me know how I can provide you with an appropriate email address privately.

Hi Cressbrook McConnel, thanks for our reply. No I am not the person doing the thesis on Cressbrook, I am just an undergraduate student who is doing a research assignment based on the Fryer Library's holdings related to your family, however after much time spent researching the archives, due to the nature of wikipedia having to use published sources, I had to base my final product on what was avaliable on the internet and in other published sources. That would be great if we could get in contact via email, mine is angela.gee@uqconnect@uq.edu.au or if you leave me yours I will send you an email and we get make the desired corrections. Ajgee93 (talk) 10:50, 17 October 2013 (UTC)Ajgee93

Thank you Angela, I have sent you an email. Although I sent it to angela.gee@uqconnect.uq.edu.au, as the one you left did not work. Please let me know if you do not receive this email and I will try again. CressbrookMcConnel (talk) 23:34, 17 October 2013 (UTC)

That email actually failed - I have subsequently sent it to angela.gee@uqconnect.edu.au CressbrookMcConnel (talk) 23:39, 17 October 2013 (UTC)
