Welcome to Wikipedia, Danielle Scott! Thank you for your contributions.

Here are some pages that you might find helpful: Also, when you post on talk pages you should sign your name using four tildes ( ~ ); that will automatically produce your username and the date.

Your edits
Wikipedia can be a strange place for newcomers sometimes as we have a number of policies and guidelines most new editors don't know exist. One of them is what we call "notability". See WP:N We have special criteria for authors at Notability (people) and books at Notability (books). If you want us to mention a book, then normally we would expect one or the other to have an article meeting the criteria first. I saw normally as if somehow a book became a New York Times bestseller without anyone writing an article, a link to the NYT would suffice.

You also should read WP:VERIFY and WP:RS. Thanks, and don't be discouraged, with well over 150,000 edits I still get reverted! Doug Weller talk 16:41, 15 February 2017 (UTC)
