Welcome!
Hello, Mtdeffely, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are a few links to pages you might find helpful:


 * Introduction and Getting started
 * Contributing to Wikipedia
 * The five pillars of Wikipedia
 * How to edit a page and How to develop articles
 * How to create your first article
 * Simplified Manual of Style

You may also want to complete the Wikipedia Adventure, an interactive tour that will help you learn the basics of editing Wikipedia. You can visit the Teahouse to ask questions or seek help.

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 should respond shortly. Again, welcome! Jacona (talk) 15:14, 21 January 2019 (UTC)


 * If you're interested in becoming a net positive contributor to the encyclopedia, please read the material above. When you find your edits being reverted, discuss it on an appropriate talk page. I would like to emphasize a couple of policy/guideline type pages that are especially applicable here: WP:COPYVIO, WP:CENSOR, WP:RS, WP:AGF, WP:NPA, WP:BRD. Most experienced editors will be glad to help you if you engage them in discussion. They may choose to ignore you if you just keep trying to do the same thing over and over but won't talk about it. Thanks! Jacona (talk) 15:15, 21 January 2019 (UTC)

Slightly belated follow-up to the SPI
The thing about CheckUser is that it is a tool available to a select few users that can detect if multiple accounts are abusively operated by the same person (sockpuppetry). If you really aren't a sockpuppet account like you state, then CheckUser will identify you as "unrelated". If you're lying and you really are a sockpuppet account, then CheckUser will identify you as "confirmed". After the results are given by the CheckUser, he or she will take appropriate measures against all suspected accounts: either blocking them, or leaving them unblocked. Assuming what you say is true, there's absolutely nothing to worry about, and you'll be fine. Try visiting the Teahouse; the Teahouse is a very useful place for new editors to ask questions, gain experience, and learn how to edit Wikipedia well in general. I think you'll find it very useful.
