Hello, Akhatan2016, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Ian 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.

Problematic edits

[edit]

Hi Akhatan2016. You may have seen the note that Vellela left you [User_talk:Akhatan2016/sandbox|on your sandbox's talk page]]. You can't copy text from non-free sources directly into Wikipedia, not even into your sandbox.

For copyright reasons, I was forced to delete your edit. I noticed that you haven't yet completed the Plagiarism and Copyright training module. I strongly recommend that you complete it before you do anything else on the project. Ian (Wiki Ed) (talk) 04:39, 4 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Citing reference repeatedly

[edit]

Dear Akhatan2016,

thank you for the edit on MRONJ. Nice addition. I moved your content to it's own paragraph, and changed the reference slightly. The AAOMS 2014 position paper had already been cited once and given the name AAOMS14. The way to do this is; the first time you reference a source rather than just typing <ref>SOURCE<ref/>, in the opening block give it a name like; <ref name="AAOMS14"> SOURCE DETAILS <ref/>. Now, whenever you need to use that same reference, just type <ref name="AAOMS14"/>. Notice that the ending is /> in the latter reference tag. Thanks again for the contribution.
