User talk:Cbigler

Welcome!
Hi Cbigler, and welcome to Wikipedia! I've written some advice on editing here for students in Prof. Jackson's similar classes at Longy School of Music which you might find helpful. You'll find it here. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page (User talk:Voceditenore), or place here on your talk page, ask your question, and another editor will come along to help. You might also be interested in WikiProject Classical music and WikiProject Composers. They have various guidelines for articles in this area and talk pages where you can ask advice from editors experienced in writing articles on classical music and related subjects. You'll find these guides particularly useful: WikiProject Composers: Guide to online research and WikiProject Composers: Copyright guidelines. Happy editing and best wishes, Voceditenore (talk) 05:21, 14 October 2015 (UTC)

The Teahouse
Me again. I also wanted to let you know about Wikipedia's Teahouse. It's a place providing great support for new editors. You can ask questions (no question is too basic) and get helpful answers and advice from experienced editors. Best, Voceditenore (talk) 05:21, 14 October 2015 (UTC)

Your user page
Hi Cbigler. One of your fellow students just had their user page deleted, and I'm writing to you all about how to avoid this. Your profile needs to be much more concise (at most a short paragraph about yourself) and much more closely related to what your future work here will be. I strongly recommend that you pare yours down and also include a section explicitly about what you plan to work on here. A user page consisting solely of an extensive essay-like autobiography and personal opinions where the user has made no other contributions to Wikipedia is technically contrary to Wikipedia's guidelines on user pages and tends to ring alarm bells, leading to deletions. If you need any help with this, just give me a shout. Best wishes, Voceditenore (talk) 06:48, 29 October 2015 (UTC)
