Welcome new user
[edit]Hello, User:Kutepanda , I see you opened an account and begun to make edits to the encyclopaedia back in 2012 but have never received an official welcome. Let me correct that now by saying you are most welcome here and thank you for the many constructive edits you have made.
I'm Lumos3, one of the numerous editors here. I voluntarily work as a welcomer to newcomers. I'm posting below a standard welcome box with lots of useful links. I hope you continue to get pleasure from editing and making Wikipedia an even better resource for the community.
I myself have come to the conclusion that editing and watching a topic is a great way to learn about it in depth and stay on top of current developments in the field.
Wikipedia encourages new members to jump in and make corrections and contributions to articles. I found the Be bold guideline particularly encouraging when I was getting started. I also found the Wikipedia:Cheatsheet a useful quick reference for editing the source text but our new VisualEditor makes editing much easier (This needs to be turned on in your user preferences under beta features).
If you have any questions about the project don't hesitate to contact me on my talk page here :-User_talk:Lumos3.
Happy editing,

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

Notable list of Chinese Canadians in Toronto
[edit]Hi! Thanks for updating the list of Chinese Canadians in Toronto! One thing to keep in mind is that these lists don't only contain "good" people, but also those who are not so nice. Talk:University_of_Massachusetts_Dartmouth#Dzhokhar_Tsarnaev_Not_an_Alumnus shows that the likes of Dzhokhar Tsarnaev needs to stay listed in the alumni listings, despite protests from people who don't want him associated with their university.
