Welcome![edit]

Hello, Divyareddy11, 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.

May 2024[edit]

Please do not move a page to a title that is harder to follow, or move it unilaterally against naming conventions or consensus. This includes making page moves while a discussion remains underway. We have some guidelines to help with deciding what title is best for a subject. If you would like to experiment with page titles and moving, please use the test Wikipedia. Thank you. Liz ^{Read!

Erica Scourti[edit]

Hi @Divyareddy11, I reverted your edits to the Erica Scourti article. You completely copied over the existing content that was well written and well sourced, which isn't the way to go about this. You even removed the image that was there. I know editing Wikipedia can be a bit difficult, but please be intentional with your edits.

The content you added had several issues:

The inline citations were formatted as external links rather than Wiki inline citations. Revisit this training module for guidance on how to add inline citations. There should be an inline citation to a reliable source after every sentence. If a group of sentences are all supported by the same source, then you can an inline citation to the end of the paragraph.
Check out the the page on Words to Watch. Some of your text sounds promotional rather than encyclopedic and with a neutral tone.

Address these concerns before trying to add the content back into the page. Video: Adding content to an existing article. Brianda (Wiki Ed) (talk) 17:53, 6 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
