Welcome!

[edit]

Hello, Cobb85, 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.

  • You can find answers to many student questions in our FAQ.

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me on my talk page. Brianda (Wiki Ed) (talk) 19:15, 14 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Moving work to mainspace

[edit]

Hi @Cobb85:, I noticed you tried to move your work to mainspace. Instead of creating a duplicate article, you need to make improvements to the existing Wikipedia article. If you need a refresher on how to do this, please review this training module.

Based off your sandbox, I am not sure what exact text you would like to contribute but keep this in mind. Remember, the goal is to provide a neutral, fact based summary, in your own words, of the reliable sources you found, not to persuade the readers. Wikipedia isn’t a place to share original ideas or opinions. Don’t offer your own conclusions, interpretations, or analyses. I recommend reading over pgs. 7-9 of Editing Wikipedia to check out some examples of what is appropriate writing style for Wikipedia. It's also just a super helpful guide to double check if your work is ready to go live. If you have any questions, feel free to reach out here, or on my talk page.
