Welcome!

Hello, Brandon westmoreland, 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.

Hi Brandon. When you're editing Wikipedia articles, please don't add blocks of text into the middle of an article like you did here.

1. Make sure that the text you add is properly formatted. Don't just copy and paste from a word processor.
2. Use properly-formatted inline references. Follow the instructions outlined in this training slide.
3. Make sure that what you're writing fits the tone of an encyclopedia article. You shouldn't be adding excessive background - you should link to other articles to provide that. You shouldn't be adding text into the middle of the article - you need to integrate it into what was already written.
4. Talk about facts, not about experiments.

Thanks. Ian (Wiki Ed) (talk) 17:47, 19 November 2018 (UTC)
