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). Again, welcome! Doug Weller talk 11:11, 2 October 2017 (UTC)

Lists of terrorist attacks
Hi Aaf263, and welcome to Wikipedia. You've decided to join up in a lively area. Please be aware of WP:EDITWAR, in particular the three revert rule -- you may be at risk of hitting that inadvertently. I've been removing LV from the list of terrorist incidents because it is not confirmed to be one yet (and may well never be). Can you see why the heavy.com article is not sufficient, particularly given the clarity of the Sheriff's statement? Heavy doesn't state that the perp was inspired by ISIS to commit a terrorist attack, but instead provides a bunch of speculation, which is a very different thing. If you're interested in continuing to edit in the 2017 Las Vegas Strip shooting space, please go ahead, but be careful about using reliable sources and accurately representing what they say. ~Hydronium~Hydroxide~(Talk)~ 09:37, 2 October 2017 (UTC)


 * You need to be very careful about adding to these lists. There must be excellent sources calling something terrorist, and we are not allowed to use our own opinions. See WP:RS and no original research. [[User:Doug Weller| Doug Weller talk 11:13, 2 October 2017 (UTC)
