Welcome!
Hello, Jskozlowski, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Ian and I work with Wiki Education; 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) 22:45, 2 September 2022 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Northwest Collegiate Ski Conference


A tag has been placed on Northwest Collegiate Ski Conference requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a company, corporation or organization that does not credibly indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the. BangJan1999 19:41, 28 November 2022 (UTC)

Be sure to include inline citations to reliable source that are independent of the organisation. Ian (Wiki Ed) (talk) 20:50, 28 November 2022 (UTC)

Relief Society magazine
Hello Jskozlowski and Bldriggs,

I'm the Wikipedian-in-residence at the BYU Library. I have been editing pages on Mormon studies topics on Wikipedia for a few years now. I noticed that you recently made edits to the Relief Society magazine page for a class assignment. Thank you for expanding the page! Everyone should know more about the Relief Society Magazine. It is improving with your additions.

I noticed that you also added some original research to the page, which is not allowed on Wikipedia. Every statement on the page must be able to be traced back to a secondary or even primary source to maintain text-source integrity. The following are original research:
 * "Make note of the drop in subscribers between 1930 and 1932, which coincides with the start of the Great Depression. These appear to be the only years that the magazine decreased in subscribers."
 * "[the magazine] built a unity among Mormon women across the United States and world."
 * "A continually growing global audience, expansion of male authorship, and a limited access to all writers all played a significant role; however, these all culminated in the Priesthood Correlation Program in December 1970." - this whole "Discontinuation" section has two citations, but the Encyclopedia of Mormonism article does not support all of the information in the preceding paragraph. "Male Authorship" is supported, but it is unclear what source supports the sentence "This demographic shift played a significant role in the eventual Priesthood Correlation Program".

Please add sources for this information or remove it. Since you are BYU students, I am happy to help teach you how to edit Wikipedia if you need further assistance. You can email me at rachel_helps@byu.edu or stop by my office in the BYU Library, which is in the administrative area on the second floor of the atrium.
