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:
 * Welcome!
 * The five pillars of Wikipedia
 * How to edit a page
 * Editing tutorial
 * Picture tutorial
 * How to write a great article
 * Naming conventions
 * Simplified Manual of Style


 * 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 sock puppetry.
 * 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. Deliberately adding such content or otherwise editing articles maliciously is considered vandalism; 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). Again, welcome! Shearonink (talk) 06:02, 22 April 2013 (UTC)

Roman aqueduct
You added a large amount of text to Roman aqueduct with this edit. I wanted to let you know that I reverted that material because of the following reasons: The content you contributed is not lost, you can still see it within the edit history. Before it is possibly added back into the article, let's discuss this on the article's talk page. Thank you, Shearonink (talk) 06:15, 22 April 2013 (UTC)
 * the new text resembled an essay instead of an encyclopedia,
 * the text strayed too far from the main subject of the 'Roman aqueduct', especially in the first paragraph and introductory section (which is supposed to only summarize the main points of the article) and
 * the tone of the new content seemed informal compared to the rest of the article.
