Welcome!
Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. The following links will help you begin editing on Wikipedia:
 * The five pillars of Wikipedia
 * Contributing to Wikipedia
 * How to edit a page
 * Editing tutorial
 * Picture tutorial
 * How to write a great article
 * Naming conventions
 * Simplified Manual of Style
 * Task Center – need some ideas of what kind of things need doing? Go here.

Please bear these points in mind while editing Wikipedia:
 * Respect copyrights – do not copy and paste text or images directly from other websites.
 * Maintain a neutral point of view – this is one of Wikipedia's core policies.
 * Take particular care while adding biographical material about a living person to any Wikipedia page and follow Wikipedia's Biography of Living Persons policy. Particularly, controversial and negative statements should be referenced with multiple reliable sources.
 * No edit warring or abuse of multiple accounts.
 * If you are testing, please use the Sandbox to [ do so].
 * Do not add troublesome content to any article, such as: copyrighted text, libel, advertising or promotional messages, and text that is not related to an article's subject; doing so will result in your account or IP being blocked from editing.
 * Do not use talk pages as discussion or forum pages as Wikipedia is not a forum.

The Wikipedia tutorial is a good place to start learning about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and discussion pages using four tildes, like this: &#126;&#126;&#126;&#126; (the software will replace them with your signature and the date).

September 2023
Welcome to Wikipedia. Editors are expected to treat each other with respect and civility. On this encyclopedia project, editors assume good faith while interacting with other editors, which you did not appear to do at Talk:Red Scare. Here is Wikipedia's welcome page, and it is hoped that you will assume the good faith of other editors and continue to help us improve Wikipedia! Also read WP:NPA an accusation of stone-walling is pretty serious. Doug Weller  talk 07:48, 19 September 2023 (UTC)


 * Hi Doug, thanks for letting me know. If I've overstepped, I'll email the editor in question an apology. It wasn't my intention to be a donkey. Riposte97 (talk) 09:21, 19 September 2023 (UTC)

Your "apology"
The apology you mailed me is not worth the bandwidth needed to transmit it, if you do not publically retract the offensive statement you were reprimanded for, above. Insulting people publically and "apologising" privately is not a good look. I hereby roundly reject your "apology". Kleuske (talk) 10:03, 20 September 2023 (UTC)


 * Well, all I can say is I’m sorry you feel that way. My apology was, and remains, sincere. Where I come from, public apologies can be seen as performative, is all. Anyway, I hope that we can work together respectfully in the future. Riposte97 (talk) 11:52, 20 September 2023 (UTC)
