User talk:73.87.242.229

Welcome!
Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions, such as the one you made on Linguistic Society of America. I greatly appreciate your constructive edits on Wikipedia. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are some pages you might like to see:

You are welcome to continue editing without logging in, but many editors recommend that you  [ create an account] . Doing so is free, requires no personal information, and provides several benefits, such as the ability to create articles. For a full outline and explanation of the benefits that come with creating an account, please see this page. If you edit without a username, your IP address (73.87.242.229) is used to identify you instead.

In any case, I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your comments on talk pages using four tildes ( ~ ); this will automatically produce your IP address (or username if you're logged in) and the date. If you need help, check out Questions, ask me on my talk page, or ask your question and then place  before the question on this page.

Again, welcome! Wugapodes [thɔk] [ˈkan.ˌʧɻɪbz] 20:56, 5 October 2018 (UTC)
 * As an additional note, though your edits were constructive and I think consistent with the spirit of the conflict of interest policy, as the ostensible Director of Membership of the Linguistics Society of America you should be wary of editing articles directly related to the LSA. If you do choose to [ create an account] you should choose a username that represents you as an individual rather than the Society or your role within it. I know the LSA has been working hard to increase contributions from experts in our field, so I do hope you decide to stay! If you need help, let me know and I'll be happy to assist.
