Welcome!

Hello, Sperjohn, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Brianda and I work with Wiki Education; 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.

Edits to Indiana University Natatorium article

Hi @Sperjohn, I saw that you tried to move User:Sperjohn/sandbox to mainspace when an article on the Indiana University Natatorium already exists.

Instead of creating a duplicate article, you need to make improvements to the existing Wikipedia article. If you need a refresher on how to do this, please review this training module. Some things to keep in mind: When you add content to an article, think about how they work with the rest of the text. When you add information, make sure that information isn't already presented somewhere else in the article. If you're replacing text, make sure you don't remove anything important (unless it's not accurate). Feel free to reach out if you have any questions.

Indianapolis tennis center & IU Michael A. Carroll Track & Soccer Stadium

Hi @Sperjohn, I noticed you've been busy on the mainspace with Indianapolis Tennis Center related articles. Since an article on the Indianapolis Tennis Center already exists, any edits should be made to that existing article, not to the redirect pages. The same goes for any edits to the existing IU Michael A. Carroll Track & Soccer Stadium article.

Please let me know if you have any questions. See my above message for tips on editing existing articles. Looping in @Guiliaje. Brianda (Wiki Ed) (talk) 19:30, 4 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of Innovation Hall

The article Innovation Hall has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Nothing to indicate that this is a significant building per WP:NBUILDING or WP:GNG

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
