Welcome!

Hello, Sd25trot, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Ian and I work with the Wiki Education Foundation; 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.

You can find answers to many student questions on our Q&A site, ask.wikiedu.org

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me on my talk page. Ian (Wiki Ed) (talk) 18:27, 13 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Citations and "new" materials in lead

Hi, just a note to say, the lead section is not for "new" materials, cited or not: it is a summary of the body of the article, and citations are not normally repeated from there unless specially controversial. As a summary, it makes no sense to introduce materials that are not already present in the rest of the article. All the best, Chiswick Chap (talk) 19:24, 3 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
