Welcome!
Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions; however, please remember the essential rule of respecting copyrights.

It is almost never okay to copy extensive text out of a book or website and paste it into a Wikipedia article with little or no alteration, though you can clearly and briefly quote copyrighted text in the right circumstances. Content that does not comply with this legal rule must be removed. For more information on this, see:

I hope you enjoy editing Wikipedia! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes ( ~ ); this will automatically produce your name and the date.

 * Hi Diannaa,
 * I am still new to making edits on Wikipedia. So my sincere apologies for copying the text about the three award phases as well as the nuances to the STTR program. I made those edits toward the end, was in a bit of a hurry at that point, and shouldn’t have done so so hastily.
 * The page reads really well and is a great resource for those who are new to the program. At some point I may come back with some suggested edits to encapsulate those bits.
 * Do you mind explaining the signature part of your request? One if my friends used to work for Wikimedia and is a frequent Wiki editor, but they member mentioned that part of the process.
 * My best,

 * If you place the markup of four tildes ( ~ ) at the end of a talk page post, it will generate your signature. If you use the "reply" feature, your signature is generated automatically whether you include the four tildes or not. — Diannaa (talk) 16:40, 2 September 2023 (UTC)
 * TIL. Thanks! Bmweis (talk) 23:05, 2 September 2023 (UTC)
