Welcome!
Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. The following links will help you begin editing on Wikipedia:
 * The five pillars of Wikipedia
 * Contributing to Wikipedia
 * How to edit a page
 * Editing tutorial
 * Picture tutorial
 * How to write a great article
 * Naming conventions
 * Simplified Manual of Style

Please bear these points in mind while editing Wikipedia:
 * Respect copyrights – do not copy and paste text or images directly from other websites.
 * Maintain a neutral point of view – this is one of Wikipedia's core policies.
 * Take particular care while adding biographical material about a living person to any Wikipedia page and follow Wikipedia's Biography of Living Persons policy. Particularly, controversial and negative statements should be referenced with multiple reliable sources.
 * No edit warring or abuse of multiple accounts.
 * If you are testing, please use the Sandbox to [ do so].
 * Do not add troublesome content to any article, such as: copyrighted text, libel, advertising or promotional messages, and text that is not related to an article's subject; doing so will result in your account or IP being blocked from editing.
 * Do not use talk pages as discussion or forum pages as Wikipedia is not a forum.

The Wikipedia tutorial is a good place to start learning about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and discussion pages using four tildes, like this: &#126;&#126;&#126;&#126; (the software will replace them with your signature and the date). Again, welcome! S Philbrick (Talk)  12:25, 1 May 2019 (UTC)

Edit summary rising questions
Hi, I see multiple problems with Special:Diff/900458292 and its edit summary.


 * Wikipedia is not for promotion, not even of bounties and rewards, and articles do not directly address the reader (WP:NOTPROMO, MOS:YOU).
 * Sometimes, it may be necessary to undo an edit completely, even if it only partially contains a copyright violation, because building upon a copyright-violating article may cause attribution issues (WP:RD1).
 * When a copyright problem is discovered, the copyright problem is quickly removed. Nobody is obliged to rewrite the copyright violation. Writing text that does not violate copyrights is the task of the person who would like to add the text. In most cases, the copyright problem is also removed from the history of the article (WP:RD1).
 * Neither Wikipedia nor any editor "hinder" FBI investigations. This is an encyclopedia, not a billboard (WP:5P).

I am now undoing your edit, because -- even although your cause is benevolent -- it is promotional, and Wikipedia does not publish promotional content. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 20:55, 5 June 2019 (UTC)
