Welcome

[edit]

Hello, OliviaHall10 and welcome to Wikipedia! It appears you are participating in a class project. If you haven't done so already, we encourage you to go through our training for students.

Go through our online training for students.

If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or ask your question on this page and then place {{Help me}} before the question. Please also read this helpful advice for students.

Before you create an article, make sure you understand what kind of articles are accepted here. Remember: Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, and while many topics are encyclopedic, some things are not.

Your instructor or professor may wish to set up a course page, if your class doesn't already have one. It is highly recommended that you place this text: {{Educational assignment}} on the talk page of any articles you are working on as part of your Wikipedia-related course assignment. This will let other editors know this article is a subject of an educational assignment and aid your communication with them.

We hope you like it here and encourage you to stay even after your assignment is finished! Jprg1966 (talk) 19:04, 27 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hey there WikiBuddy

Hey Olivia! It's Sahil! Just testing out the talk page. Sorry for the random wiki name. Hope you're doing well.

Welcome but be careful

[edit]

I have left similar messages on other sites related to this project. Editors are very happy to help you and your students, but we hope you will cooperate with our editing traditions:

  • WP:MEDRS. Medical/health claims come from outstanding secondary sources not just ordinary journals. They must be really good.
  • WP:SECONDARY. In general your contributions should emphasize reviews and books. Reviews are better for the readers. We are looking for general information usually, not specialized stuff.
  • Chemistry articles are about chemistry. We do not replicate information in the MSDS. Articles are not forums for recent events (WP:NOTNEWS) and our articles are not textbooks (WP:NOTTEXTBOOK).
  • Finally, please make your edits incremental: do not have students rewrite an entire article and then dump their essay on Wikipedia in place of the existing content. That is very bad form. Make your changes in parts so that experienced editors can guide the revisions. In this way, other editors can help you and, more importantly, our readers. If the students are uncertain of technical details, they can ask at the relevant Talk pages. Again, many editors can help you and your students, we kinda like doing that so it is not a burden. Happy editing. --Smokefoot (talk) 17:37, 9 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Nonylphenol, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Aquatic and Injection (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.
