User talk:Dq209

An extended welcome
Welcome to Wikipedia. I've added a welcome message to the top of this page that gives a great deal of information about Wikipedia. I hope you find it useful.

Additionally, I hope you don't mind if I share some of my thoughts on starting out as a new editor on Wikipedia: If I could get editors in your situation to follow just one piece of advice, it would be this: Learn Wikipedia by working only on non-contentious topics until you have a feel for the normal editing process and the policies that usually come up when editing casually. You'll find editing to be fun, easy, and rewarding. The rare disputes are resolved quickly and easily.

Working on biographical information about living persons is far more difficult. Wikipedia's Biographies of living persons policy requires strict adherence to multiple content policies, and applies to all information about living persons including talk pages.

If you have a relationship with the topics you want to edit, then you will need to review Wikipedia's Conflict of interest policy, which may require you to disclose your relationship and restrict your editing depending upon how you are affiliated with the subject matter. Regardless, editing in a manner that promotes an entity or viewpoint over others can appear to be detrimental to the purpose of Wikipedia and the neutrality required in articles.

Some topic areas within Wikipedia have special editing restrictions that apply to all editors. It's best to avoid these topics until you are extremely familiar with all relevant policies and guidelines.

I hope you find some useful information in all this, and welcome again. --Ronz (talk) 18:08, 25 November 2019 (UTC)

Please read WP:OFFICIALNAME.

Plus the change cannot be easily reverted without administrator intervention. ViperSnake151  Talk  18:13, 25 November 2019 (UTC)
 * ...which I am, so I did. Dq209, see WP:RM for the proper process if you wish to pursue this. I echo ViperSnake151 that all editors should be conservative rather than bold in page-moves due to their potential for disruption and the effort it takes to undo them. DMacks (talk) 18:50, 25 November 2019 (UTC)
 * Concur with above. Please review Wikipedia policies thoroughly before attempting to move any more pages. --Coolcaesar (talk) 13:18, 26 November 2019 (UTC)

"W i k i p e d i a" listed at Redirects for discussion
An editor has asked for a discussion to address the redirect W i k i p e d i a. Since you had some involvement with the W i k i p e d i a redirect, you might want to participate in the redirect discussion if you wish to do so. MoonyTheDwarf (Braden N.) (talk) 20:55, 4 December 2019 (UTC)

Article renaming
Hi, I'd like to repeat the advice given to you above that "all editors should be conservative rather than bold in page-moves due to their potential for disruption". I called for your recent title change to Homosexual behaviour in animals to be reverted, which it was. If you want to make such a move please just open a discussion on the Talk page and see if there are other opinions. Which there probably will be in most cases. After all, there's a reason why the title is the way it is (someone wanted to call it that). Not to say there shouldn't be moves, of course there should be sometimes. But it ought to be tested through discussion. Thanks FrankP (talk) 20:38, 9 January 2020 (UTC)
