Welcome
Hello, Stanglass and welcome to Wikipedia! It appears you are participating in a class project. If you haven't done so already, we encourage you to go through our training for students.

If you need help, check out Questions, ask me on, or ask your question on this page and then place  before the question. Please also read this helpful advice for students.

Before you create an article, make sure you understand what kind of articles are accepted here. Remember: Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, and while many topics are encyclopedic, some things are not.

Your instructor or professor may wish to set up a course page, and if your class doesn't already have one please tell your instructor about that. It is highly recommended that you place this text:  on the talk page of any articles you are working on as part of your Wikipedia-related course assignment. This will let other editors know this article is a subject of an educational assignment and aid your communication with them.

We hope you like it here and encourage you to stay even after your assignment is finished! Drm310 🍁 (talk) 21:48, 11 October 2017 (UTC)

Copyright violations
Hi. As you will see, I have reverted your recent additions to the Ann Sabina page as much (most?) of these were fairly crude and blatant cut-and-paste copyright violations from source material. Merely changing "Ann" to "Sabina", switching positions of some punctuation, and other similar tweaks don't suddenly make this your work. I see that you are editing this page as part of a university assignment; one way to get a crap mark is to brazenly plagiarize sources that are explicitly cited in the text. Go away and read the Wikipedia guide on close paraphrasing and try again. Pyrop e  13:53, 12 October 2017 (UTC)


 * I apologize for misunderstanding the Wikipedia guidelines. I have revisited the training modules and believe the corrections I have now made made to the Ann Sabina article are now in acceptable order. If not, I'll be more than happy to discuss further problems with you as well as my professors. Thank you for your time. Stanglass (talk) 03:25, 17 October 2017 (UTC)


 * It's not great, but better than it was. Well done for putting in the effort. Pyrop  e  20:43, 25 October 2017 (UTC)
