 * Welcome to Wikipedia!

Hello Pinkshot12. welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Gobonobo and I am an online ambassador for your Writing 101 class.

If you haven't already, I'd like to encourage you to read the United States Education Program's instructions for students. I can help you become familiar with Wikipedia and work on your assignment. If you ever need help, do not hesitate to ask.

If you'd like to get acquainted with Wikipedia, you could have a look at:
 * The five pillars of Wikipedia
 * Tutorial
 * How to edit a page
 * How to write a great article
 * Manual of Style

If you ever need my help, you can get in touch with me...
 * through my talk page here on Wikipedia.
 * by emailing me using this page.

When asking for help, please remember...
 * Provide a link to the article you are working on (if you are having trouble with a specific issue).
 * Provide a detailed question, so that I can provide the best support I can.
 * Whenever you post on a user's talk page, please remember sign your messages using four tildes ( ~ ); this will automatically insert your username and the date, so the other user knows who posted the message, and when.

Links...
 * Course page: USEP/Courses/Writing 101 (University of Montana-Western)
 * Instant help: Wikipedia classroom on IRC.


 * I hope you and your class enjoy editing here and will be Wikipedians long after this term! Remember, if you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask!  Gobōnobo  + c 21:26, 15 October 2012 (UTC)

Grant-Kohrs Ranch National Historic Site
Hi Pinkshot12. I see that you're planning on expanding the Grant-Kohrs Ranch National Historic Site article. Your references look good. It's helpful if footnotes are used so we know which reference is supporting each fact. In encyclopedic writing, value judgments like whether on not it is a worthwhile tourist destination are usually left aside. You could also use some links to other articles. Placing double brackets around terms like this: Deer Lodge, Montana will result in this: Deer Lodge, Montana. Gobōnobo + c 05:10, 17 October 2012 (UTC)
