Welcome!
Hello, Lwinkler19, 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) 19:49, 12 September 2018 (UTC)

Student editing on Wikipedia
Students who are required to edit Wikipedia have a mixed record here, so be careful. Consider these suggestions:
 * rely on high quality secondary and tertiary references per the guidelines WP:SECONDARY and WP:TERTIARY. What this advice means is that you should only cite reviews and books.  Virtually anything else will be removed.
 * if you anticipate a major revision, announce your ideas/plans on the talk page of the affected article. if you have questions, leave them on the Talk page of the affected article.  Experienced editors can help.
 * Usually it is a good idea to make changes incrementally.
 * Do not worry at all about formatting, experienced editors will deal with those trivialities. Focus completely on super-high quality content.
 * Happy editing,--Smokefoot (talk) 21:39, 26 September 2018 (UTC)
