Welcome!

Hello, Shaniqua.smith, 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.

Curly top

Hi. I noticed that you added a series of journal articles to the curly top article in this edit. I'm not sure what your goal was there, but in general you shouldn't just drop content like this into an article without more context. You can add references to support particular statements in an article, but you shouldn't add them without directly connecting them to statements in the article.

In addition, please add references as properly-formatted inline citations. If you aren’t sure how to do this, please revisit the section of the training module beginning on this page. Ian (Wiki Ed) (talk) 16:22, 23 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
