Welcome

[edit]

Welcome to Wikipedia! Based on your contributions, you already grasp how things work here, but for form's sake, here are a standard list of links for all starting Wikipedians:

Feel free to reply or ask questions here or on my talk page. To get quicker attention from many helpful wikipedians, check out the Teahouse.

It's great you've created an account here. One of many benefits of doing that is that contributing under just IP address can appear as a short-term or minimal commitment, and it may be harder for some other editors to give these contributions the attention they deserve. Having a registered account with a recognizable name ("handle") that gives you some more tangible personality, so avoids that (usually unfair) stigma. (We editors are all only human -- just volunteers with limited time.)

But...

Your username

[edit]

You should know that contributing under a name that appears to be focused on a selected viewpoint of a single subject may not get the above benefit. That's especially true if one's contributions are likewise focused on that same viewpoint of that same single subject. We at WP have agreed to always assume good faith, but despite that, this sort of cross-over of username and contribution tendencies may unwittingly trigger thoughts of WP:SPA and non-neutral WP:POV campaigns for the WP:TRUTH -- all long-standing problems that all experienced editors have learned to look out for.

So, you may want to consider changing your username. In principle, there is no reason for you to do this, but, as I said, we editors are all only human, and doing this might improve your contributing experience here. I just thought it was my duty to at least make you aware of this. (Warning: do not simply start an additional account with a new username; this can be very bad if not done correctly, per WP:SOCK.)

Thanks again for joining us, and happy editing! --A D Monroe III(talk) 13:33, 26 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
