Welcome!
[edit]Hello, EmilyMeeds, 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.

Wiki Peer Review: Greetings!
[edit]Hi EmilyMeeds! I'm YamYamRulez, Its nice to meet you! I just finished going over your Wikipedia article! I loved you addition to the current article, you've found so much more important info to include and I'm very impressed. You have also inspired my to read some of her poetry! I would love it if you included some of her poetry in your presentation. :) Best of luck to you and your studies!

I suppose you know that Sarah Louisa Forten Purvis already exists? You don't have to sign (four tildes) in your edit summaries. Drmies (talk) 01:31, 6 December 2021 (UTC)
Yes I do know that there is currently a page on her. Thank you! I am currently working on an assignment, and still in the process of learning. Thank you for the feedback. EmilyMeeds (talk) 01:49, 6 December 2021 (UTC)
- OK. When you are ready, I assume you'll want to "integrate" that into the article? I can help you do that. Please don't go and copy your version into the article: we'll need to do a history merge. If you copy and paste, we need to do complicated stuff--outlined in Wikipedia:Administrators' guide/Fixing cut-and-paste moves--so let's try and avoid. Oh, and when you see Dr. Lifshitz, tell her I said hi, and that I'm hoping the Boniface book will be a bestseller. Drmies (talk) 01:53, 6 December 2021 (UTC)
- I actually have a zoom meeting tomorrow morning to talk with the wiki specialist that was assigned to my class so that they can properly teach me how to integrate my research with the current page. Thank you though for offering to help! EmilyMeeds (talk) 01:58, 6 December 2021 (UTC)
- OK--so "a bunch of small copy edits onto the current page" are part of the history if they are done on that page. You copied the article and worked on that copy. If you were to copy and paste that text into the article, then all the individual edits you made in your copy are gone; a history merge will preserve that, and preserving the history is almost sacrosanct here. So we can do that, when you're ready. On a side note, I'm looking at your copy, and it says things like "is shown to be compounded". On Wikipedia, that "shown" has to be supported by a secondary source; you and I may see it as clear as day in those works, but that counts as original research. Sorry, I gotta run, but keep me posted. Drmies (talk) 21:20, 6 December 2021 (UTC)
- Okay sounds good! Thank you for your help and insight! I will keep you updated! EmilyMeeds (talk) 21:23, 6 December 2021 (UTC)
