Remember to always sign your posts on talk pages. You can do this either by clicking on the button on the edit toolbar or by typing four tildes (~~~~)
at the end of your post. This will automatically insert your signature, a link to this (your talk) page, and a timestamp.
To get some practice editing you can use a sandbox. You can create your own private sandbox for use any time. Perfect for working on bigger projects. Then for easy access in the future, you can put
{{My sandbox}}
on your user page. By the way, seeing as you haven't created a user page yet, simply click here to start it.Sincerely, Crtew (talk) 15:36, 26 August 2012 (UTC) (Leave me a message)

Assignment
[edit]You've been assigned Zane Plemmons, who is also known by his birth name Zane Alejandro Plemmons Rosales, for coverage of journalists during the Mexican Drug War. Crtew (talk) 17:48, 4 September 2012 (UTC)
Notability and infobox
[edit]Good progress is being made. With the "Current" template up it may be difficult to nail down the notability as of yet. You'll revisit this, however, before submitting. You're ready to write! Crtew (talk) 00:24, 1 October 2012 (UTC)
Wikipedia Education Program: student survey!
[edit]Hi! I work with the Wikipedia Education Program, and I'm hoping to get your feedback about your experience this semester! In order to help other students like you enjoy editing while contributing positively to Wikipedia, it would be very helpful to hear from real program students about their experience, so we know what to change. The survey takes no more than 10 minutes, and I'd really appreciate your response!
Thanks so much! JMathewson (WMF) (talk) 01:53, 18 December 2012 (UTC)
