Here's wishing you a belated welcome to Wikipedia, Capt. Ciel. I see that you've already been around a while and wanted to thank you for your contributions. Though you seem to have been successful in finding your way around, you may benefit from following some of the links below, which help editors get the most out of Wikipedia:
- Introduction
- The five pillars of Wikipedia
- Contributing to Wikipedia
- How to edit a page
- Help pages
- How to write a great article
- Editor's index to Wikipedia
Also, when you post on talk pages you should sign your name using four tildes (~~~~); that should automatically produce your username and the date after your post.
I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! If you have any questions, feel free to leave me a message on my talk page, consult Wikipedia:Questions, or place {{help me}} on your talk page and ask your question there.
Again, welcome! Doug Weller talk 06:27, 24 January 2019 (UTC)
Era style
[edit]Hi - as you are new, you won't know about WP:ERA. Please read and follow it. I see another editor reverted you just now which is why I've given you this message as well as the welcome message above. Doug Weller talk 06:28, 24 January 2019 (UTC)
Secondary sources and original research
[edit] Hello, I'm DVdm. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Le Sage's theory of gravitation, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. See the edit summary of my revert. Thanks. - DVdm (talk) 21:27, 19 June 2019 (UTC)
- Note: upon closer inspection of your edit, I notice that you added wp:original research, synthesising a conclusion from the sources. In that respect, please see wp:SYNTH. Thanks. - DVdm (talk) 21:39, 19 June 2019 (UTC)
Not a forum
[edit] Please refrain from using talk pages such as Talk:Plate tectonics for general discussion of the topic or other unrelated topics. They are for discussion related to improving the article in specific ways, based on reliable sources and the project policies and guidelines; they are not for use as a forum or chat room. If you have specific questions about certain topics, consider visiting our reference desk and asking them there instead of on article talk pages. See here for more information. Thank you. --Fama Clamosa (talk) 19:16, 20 January 2020 (UTC)
