Welcome!
Hello, Dpvalade, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Shalor and I work with the Wiki Education Foundation; I help support students who are editing as part of a class assignment.

I hope you enjoy editing here. If you haven't already done so, please check out the student training library, which introduces you to editing and Wikipedia's core principles. You may also want to check out the Teahouse, a community of Wikipedia editors dedicated to helping new users. Below are some resources to help you get started editing. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me on my talk page. Shalor (Wiki Ed) (talk) 20:03, 25 June 2018 (UTC)

Links to copyrighted work
Hi Dpvalade,

In a recent edit you linked to a PDF copy of a modern, copyrighted book in a Google Drive. Unfortunately this isn't acceptable; not only do readers have no way of trusting the Google Drive to be accurate, even making the link may be a copyright violation. This is because the PDF copy itself appears to be a copyright violation; see WP:COPYLINK for an explanation. Many thanks for your other edits, User:GKFXtalk 23:42, 5 July 2018 (UTC).

Recent Edits
Hello, just wanted to check in about the recent edits I made on the Copernican Revolution article page. I added a section and a photo. Just wanted to see if everything was ok. Thanks for your help. Dpvalade (talk) 02:10, 12 July 2018 (UTC)

Page merges
Hi! I wanted to drop a quick note about page merges - it looks like the conversation that you weighed in on is from last year and there was a dissenting opinion, so take that into consideration when you work on any potential merge. Shalor (Wiki Ed) (talk) 15:22, 16 July 2018 (UTC)

National varieties of English
Please don't change English in articles from a style normally used in one national usage to that normal in another national usage, such as replacing United States English with Australian English, unless there is a specific reason. Naturally, for a subject exclusively related to the United Kingdom (for example, a famous British person), use British English. For something related to the United States in the same way, use American English, and likewise with Canadian, Irish, South African or any other versions of English. However, when that consideration does not apply an article should normally retain the version of English in which it was originally written, so don't make changes such as replacing "organisation" with "organization".
