Welcome!
Hello, MsPalmski, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay.

Please do not remove content or templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Ayesha Vardag, without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your content removal does not appear to be constructive and has been reverted. If you only meant to make a test edit, please use the sandbox for that. Without explanation you removed the infobox and the maintenance templates. David Biddulph (talk) 10:36, 31 December 2019 (UTC)

Sorry. Am new to Wikipedia. Still learning. Thanks for the guidance. MsPalmski (talk) 10:49, 31 December 2019 (UTC)

BTW, as the entry has reverted to a previous version must I re-insert the citations and changes I made? Thanks, HNY!MsPalmski (talk) 11:04, 31 December 2019 (UTC)

Help me!
Please help me with...Are my current edits to Ayesha Vardag page acceptable? This is my first attempt at a Wikipedia edit. Do you have suggestions for improvements? Thank you in advance.

 * I've had only a quick glance, but three obvious points are:


 * You've added refs as bare URLs. Look at that link, then expand the refs, preferably by using templates such as cite news or cite web;  if you use the citation templates link from the edit toolbar, it should enable you to autofill many of the relevant parameters if you put in the URL & click the icon alongside it.
 * You say you removed a broken link. We don't normally remove a ref just because it becomes dead, see WP:Link rot.
 * Wikipedia isn't an acceptable reference, see WP:CIRCULAR. It may be appropriate to change the ref to a wikilink. --David Biddulph (talk) 12:37, 3 January 2020 (UTC)

Is the entry acceptable?
Please help me with... Hi David, I have made changes advised in your last communication. Is the entry now of acceptable standard? Do you have any further feedback? Thanks for your help.

 * I have reinstated a reference which you deleted, see 2nd bullet of my response in your previous section, but marked it as a dead link. Other editors will hopefully comment if they believe it necessary. --David Biddulph (talk) 19:37, 5 January 2020 (UTC)
