Hello, Thundersub!

Thank you very much for the warm welcome. I wasn't expecting a message like this to be as encouraging as it has turned out to be. But now that I am hoping to edit a little more in the near future, I might actually have to use a new account. This one, I'm afraid, is no longer as anonymous as I'd hope it would be.

Anyhow, your encouragement is truly appreciated. I'll try to not let the editing community down.

Suggesting you create your User Page.

Hi Herb Bivore! First of all, thanks for your edits on the Bongbong Marcos article. Just as a friendly note, though. May I suggest you create a User Page where you give people a brief idea of who you are, and maybe why you edit? It can be as simple as my own user page (click here to see that example), or it can be more extensive. If you click the red link that is your own username, Wikipedia should take you to a page where you can create your User Page. Now. The reason I'm messaging this: although your edits seemed very constructive, you just edited a very controversial page, so I think people are naturally going to be curious who you are. You don't really actually have to, of course, but it might be wise to assuage their concerns a bit by letting them get an idea who you are (without necessarily revealing anything that might compromise your privacy. Again, thank you for those... interesting edits! Yours,Thundersub (talk) 12:58, 5 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
