The best way to learn about something is to experience it. Explore, learn, contribute, and don't forget to have some fun!
To get some practice editing you can use a sandbox. You can create your own private sandbox for use any time. Perfect for working on bigger projects. Then for easy access in the future, you can put {{My sandbox}} on your user page. By the way, seeing as you haven't created a user page yet, simply click here to start it.

[edit]

Welcome to Wikipedia. I saw how you edited or created Amy Courter, and I noticed that the username you have chosen, "Capsfuture", seems to imply that you are editing on behalf of something other than yourself. Please note that you may not edit on behalf of a company, group, institution, product, or website, and Wikipedia does not allow usernames that are promotional or have the appearance of shared use. If you are willing to use a personal account, please take a moment to create a new account or request a username change that represents only yourself as an individual. You should also read our conflict of interest guideline and remember that promotional editing is not acceptable regardless of the username you choose. If you believe that your username does not violate our policy, please leave a note here explaining why. Thank you. ukexpat (talk) 16:12, 19 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you - and I fully support and appreciate you checking into this. I have had a tough time with vandalism on the wiki page that someone created for me, and so I am trying to clear that up and I appreciate the scrutiny that it all brings. SO - There is not an entity or organization "Capsfuture" - it is my own personal pseudonym that I used when I ran for a CAP elected position. I own the domains, and use them privately as an individual. I also own AMYCOURTER.COM and I send it to my CAPsFuture.com site. Right now, I have the sites down (under construction) as I am in a major rework of all this as I completed my tenure in the CAP (USAFx) and as I refocus my career in a new direction.

Earlier, I checked the username information and found that using AmyCourter seemed to be discouraged from Wikipedia, so I would appreciate your consideration to allow me to continue to use my personal pseudonym, Capsfuture, and for me to be allowed to edit the site where my biographical information has been placed.

Thank you.

Hi there, if you want to make changes in the article, please be as specific as possible on the talkpage. As the other user said, specify what paragraph/sentence you want to change, and why. If something in the current article is wrong, please suggest a correction and please provide a source as well so others can verify it, assuming a source exist. Don't hesitate to get back on IRC if you prefer the live chat in order to get assistance. Bjelleklang - talk 18:16, 19 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

thank you - and the change requests have been made in the Talk page of "Amy Courter" wiki. Anything you can do to get the three changes made would be greatly appreciated.

Hi again, I've taken a look at the edit requests, and incorporated one of them into the article. There are a few minor issues with the two others, mainly with getting additional references. Please see my comments on the talkpage. Bjelleklang - talk 22:07, 19 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
