Welcome
Hello, Gwss17 and welcome to Wikipedia! It appears you are participating in a class project. If you haven't done so already, we encourage you to go through our training for students.

If you need help, check out Questions, ask me on, or ask your question on this page and then place  before the question. Please also read this helpful advice for students.

Before you create an article, make sure you understand what kind of articles are accepted here. Remember: Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, and while many topics are encyclopedic, some things are not.

Your instructor or professor may wish to set up a course page, if your class doesn't already have one. It is highly recommended that you place this text:  on the talk page of any articles you are working on as part of your Wikipedia-related course assignment. This will let other editors know this article is a subject of an educational assignment and aid your communication with them.

We hope you like it here and encourage you to stay even after your assignment is finished! Valfontis (talk) 23:53, 2 June 2014 (UTC)

Blocked
Welcome to Wikipedia. Because we have a policy against usernames that give the impression that the account represents a group, organization or website, I have blocked this account; please take a moment to create a new account with a username that represents only yourself as an individual and which complies with our username policy. You should also read our conflict of interest guideline and be aware that promotional editing is not acceptable regardless of the username you choose. If your username does not represent a group, organization or website, you may appeal this username block by adding the text below this notice. You may simply create a new account, but you may prefer to change your username to one that complies with our username policy, so that your past contributions are associated with your new username. If you would prefer to change your username, you may appeal this username block by adding the text below this notice. Thank you. Valfontis (talk) 23:53, 2 June 2014 (UTC)


 * ( Non-administrator observation ) Perhaps the conflict of interest bit doesn't apply to you, but the group part most likely does. You do not need to (and should not) create a new user account for a group; you should only edit using your individual accounts. If you want a common space to coordinate, you should follow the advice above and set up a course page.
 * You all may want to read the advice on advocacy, especially if you are going to contribute to articles about topics like feminism. In short, Wikipedia can describe points of view and activist causes, but these must be done in a neutral way with citations to reliable sources of information.
