[edit]Thank you for contributing to Wikipedia. I've undone your contributions to Alien abduction, though, because you replaced two links to people who do have Wikipedia pages with links that don't correspond to Wikipedia pages. As a rule, people should have a Wikipedia page before they're added to a list. If you want to add these individuals, I suggest you start with establishing that they are notable by Wikipedia standards and, if they are, getting articles created.

Welcome to Wikipedia
[edit]Hello Unpuppet - Wikipedia editing has a bit of a learning curve, the rules can be quite difficult, I struggled in the beginning also, for more months than I would like to think, but eventually I learned. Rule number one - every edit on Wikipedia is public and lasts and lasts. Rule number two - Just because someone removes or changes your edit does not mean that there is a grand conspiracy to guard information or attack you, more likely it was done because the edit you left was incorrect according to the rules of Wikipedia. Rule number three - most editors here on Wikipedia (including myself) would love to see you remain, learn the rules and help improve Wikipedia, no one is out to get you. Rule number four- reach out when you have a question (I see you found the Tea Room) or you can contact me on Facebook or by email susangerbic@yahoo.com I have nothing to hide (see rule number one) which is why I use my real name when editing Wikipedia. The last thing I would suggest is that you start out with the Wikipedia Adventure Game, this is part of assignment one for GSoW training and I encourage it for everyone new to Wikipedia editing (it sure would have helped me when I first started out) it is a bit hokey, but it is pretty quick and it teaches you some basic edits and it will force you to set up a user page so that you show everyone that you are here to help and will be staying awhile. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:The_Wikipedia_Adventure Now that you know how to get a hold of me, I hope to hear from you again.Sgerbic (talk) 15:19, 2 April 2018 (UTC)
