Welcome!
Hello, Envirosalmonoid, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Ian 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. Ian (Wiki Ed) (talk) 19:17, 21 January 2016 (UTC)

Wildlands Project
Thanks for your additions to the Wildlands Project article. However, I noticed that you were using bare urls as references. Bare urls are difficult to maintain, because urls often change as websites change their layout (what they call link rot). If you use a full reference, it's often possible to track down a reference even if the url is changed. With the citation tool in the Visual Editor, most of the time you can create properly formatted references using only a url. You should try using it - it's little more work for you, and it produced a much better product. Ian (Wiki Ed) (talk) 20:55, 5 February 2016 (UTC)
