Hello... checking in
Hello,

It's nice to have you here at Wikipedia! I am stopping by to check if you understand the need to add references when inserting content, such as the Jean Cooke article. For instance, is that information in the cited source for the content before and after your new sentence?

It looks like some information was added to an actual reference in another article, but I wasn't sure if that was just an off-hand comment, or information that came from the cited source.

I am happy to help sort out the changes or tweaks that should be made according to Wikipedia guidelines.

You can answer here by typing a response to me below this message.

 * Good morning (I am assuming)


 * I see you are continuing to make edits, but your edits keep getting flagged as potential errors. It has to do with making edits without adding citations. I don't want to revert your edits without tackling this with you first. It would be so much better to get on the same page about edits made according to guidelines.


 * I assume that you can edit this talk page, because you know how to edit main pages.–CaroleHenson (talk) 12:58, 22 December 2019 (UTC)


 * Here's an example of an edit I just made where I inserted content with the applicable source. It may seem complicated due to the codes used to create the references, but there are a number of tools to help with that. I know it can be a bit overwhelming at first, but it gets easier!–CaroleHenson (talk) 13:18, 22 December 2019 (UTC)
