Hello, Sillyramaa, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Brianda and I work with Wiki Education; I help support students who are editing as part of a class assignment.

I hope you enjoy editing here. If you haven't already done so, please check out the student training library, which introduces you to editing and Wikipedia's core principles. You may also want to check out the Teahouse, a community of Wikipedia editors dedicated to helping new users. Below are some resources to help you get started editing.

San Bruno Mountain
Hello Brianda!

I'm glad you, Wiki-Ed, and Stanford are all using this article. I've lived against the mountain since 1980, and have intermittently worked on establishing/expanding references and organizing text for more than four years.

The "Hermits" section you added seemed to me to [1] need a few additional references (I added one), [2] have some of the verbiage re-written from that neutral POV, and [3] moved into chronological order after the Westbay and Terrabay sections. You may disagree with that last, but since you primarily build your story around the Caballero/Serdahely residence in the 90's and the Terrabay section commences earlier in the 80s, I chose to do what I did.

I also left your statement about homeless "seeking refuge". I agree with that thought, but have not found a reliable citation - I tagged it and have left it for you and the students.

Finally, there have been folks living on the mountain on and off since the 1930s, according to long-time residents (many now gone, alas!). If you want a research topic, I suggest a search of local news-outlets and possibly police records.

I'm primarily involved these days in porting several articles to non-English Wikipedias, so this is just a "hit & run"! Keep up your fine work! Ethnic laundry (talk) 16:19, 14 December 2023 (UTC)
