Welcome!
Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. The following links will help you begin editing on Wikipedia:
 * The five pillars of Wikipedia
 * Contributing to Wikipedia
 * How to edit a page
 * Editing tutorial
 * Picture tutorial
 * How to write a great article
 * Naming conventions
 * Simplified Manual of Style

Please bear these points in mind while editing Wikipedia:
 * Respect copyrights – do not copy and paste text or images directly from other websites.
 * Maintain a neutral point of view – this is one of Wikipedia's core policies.
 * Take particular care while adding biographical material about a living person to any Wikipedia page and follow Wikipedia's Biography of Living Persons policy. Particularly, controversial and negative statements should be referenced with multiple reliable sources.
 * No edit warring or abuse of multiple accounts.
 * If you are testing, please use the Sandbox to [ do so].
 * Do not add troublesome content to any article, such as: copyrighted text, libel, advertising or promotional messages, and text that is not related to an article's subject; doing so will result in your account or IP being blocked from editing.
 * Do not use talk pages as discussion or forum pages as Wikipedia is not a forum.

The Wikipedia tutorial is a good place to start learning about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and discussion pages using four tildes, like this: &#126;&#126;&#126;&#126; (the software will replace them with your signature and the date).

 * Hello, welcome and thank you for your efforts to improve the Jerry Saltz entry. His political views certainly could be an encyclopedic topic if there is adequate secondary source coverage for us to summarize: remember that WP is a tertiary source, just summarizing the findings of reliable secondary sources, not giving our own findings. The difficulty is right now we only have one reliable secondary source that only devoted six sentences to Saltz, so that section in the entry is as long as the source we are basing it on, which tells us we don’t have enough to go on yet. For what it’s worth, this is pretty common—a tweet may get a lot of Twitter attention but that often doesn’t translate into reliable sources writing up substantial accounts that we can summarize. A better bet is usually to look for profiles of the person that may discuss their politics. Hope that helps! Innisfree987 (talk) 22:28, 22 November 2020 (UTC)
