Hello, I'm Oshwah. I noticed that in this edit to Portal:Google/Selected biography, you removed content without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry, the removed content has been restored. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks.  ~Oshwah~  (talk) (contribs)   03:56, 7 September 2016 (UTC)

Welcome
Hello, Jordanroody, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions.

I notice that in your first edits, at Portal:Google/Selected biography, you appear to be writing about yourself. This is a common mistake made by new Wikipedians—as this is an encyclopedia, we wouldn't expect to have an article about every contributor. Your user page, however, is a great place to write about yourself, making sure to stay within user page guidelines. Just click your user name at the top of the screen when you are logged in, and edit it normally.

I have restored the page you edited.

Here are a few links to pages you might find helpful: Please remember to sign your messages on talk pages by typing four tildes ( ~ ); this will automatically insert your username and the date. If you need help, check out Questions, ask me on my talk page, or and a volunteer will visit you here shortly. Again, welcome! -- John of Reading (talk) 05:59, 7 September 2016 (UTC)
