Hello, Brian3455, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Ian and I work with Wiki Education; 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.

Hi. When you incorporate text almost word-for-word from a USGS source, you should say so in your edit summary. Since work by the US federal government isn't subject to copyright, it isn't a copyright infringement, but you should still acknowledge when you're using someone else's words, like you did in this edit.

I've done this for you for the article. Ian (Wiki Ed) (talk) 14:08, 19 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
