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). Again, welcome! CSMention269 (talk) 16:35, 15 February 2024 (UTC)

Linking to disambiguation pages
In your two recent edits to London Borough of Hounslow, , you added two Wikilinks to a disambiguation page. These pages are meant for readers who have searched on a topic which can refer to multiple different things, to direct them (hopefully) to the specific article they were looking for. So it's usually unintended to link to them, rather than just linking to the specific instance meant. The two in question were Appledore and Ashton. Going to those pages, you can see that they offer a list of articles that the reader needs to chose from. Usually, I would just fix it with the specific link myself, but I'm not familiar enough with the intracacies of English place names to know which ones you meant. So I'm hoping you can review the new links, and fix them so that they point to the specific article intended. Thank you. signed, Willondon (talk) 19:26, 16 February 2024 (UTC)


 * @Willondon Thank you Will, I'm new from Wikipedia so I can make some mistakes and I will add Appledore from Kent and Ashton. Smartiesfromlondis (talk) 08:09, 17 February 2024 (UTC)
 * @Willondon sorry for talking to you again but which (Ashton) are you talking about? Smartiesfromlondis (talk) 08:14, 17 February 2024 (UTC)


 * Well, the real question is which Ashton are you talking about? You placed the link, so you should find out which page the reader should go to, and make that the link, instead of requiring the reader to guess. Or you could remove the link.  signed, Willondon (talk)  23:08, 18 February 2024 (UTC)

Forms of English
Hi, this is Joyous!. I reversed | your edit to this article. Because this is the English Wikipedia, not the American Wikipedia, we've had to find a way to deal with variations in language, spelling, and (in this case) formatting dates. We landed on a set of compromises that you can read about here. Joyous! Noise! 15:53, 24 March 2024 (UTC)
