Hi there. When editing an article on Wikipedia there is a small field labeled "Edit summary" under the main edit-box. It looks like this:

The text written here will appear on the Recent changes page, in the page revision history, on the diff page, and in the watchlists of users who are watching that article. See m:Help:Edit summary for full information on this feature.

Filling in the edit summary field greatly helps your fellow contributors in understanding what you changed, so please always fill in the edit summary field. If you are adding a section, please do not just keep the previous section's header in the Edit summary field – please fill in your new section's name instead. Thank you. 220  of  Borg 11:25, 25 December 2013 (UTC)

Student project
Hello, Starnavy 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, if your class doesn't already have one. 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! --Tryptofish (talk) 16:42, 25 December 2013 (UTC)

Apoc Oil and Gas International
In [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Apoc_Oil_and_Gas_International&curid=42271836&diff=601165881&oldid=601007142 this edit] you wikilinked Austral, but the destination is a disambiguation page. Please replace the link with a link to an article. If no article exists, either remove the link or, if the place is "notable" (most populated places which are the equivalent of an incorporated town or city are considered notable) then create the article and add it to the list in Austral. davidwr/ (talk)/(contribs)  16:53, 25 March 2014 (UTC)

 * The copyright-related part of the note I just added to Wikipedia talk:Uttsinghuajoint2014 is in reference to your edit. I deliberately left your name and the article name out of that statement, but I wanted you to know that your edit motivated me to remind the class(es) participating in this project to respect copyright law and Wikipedia's copyright policies. davidwr/  (talk)/(contribs)  17:24, 25 March 2014 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for March 26
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Apoc Oil and Gas International, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Austral (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.
