Welcome Ljbriner!
Now that you've joined Wikipedia, there are 48,439,373 users!
Hello, Ljbriner. Welcome to Wikipedia and thank you for your contributions! I'm Crtew, one of the other editors here, and I hope you decide to stay and help contribute to this amazing repository of knowledge.
Some pages of helpful information to get you started:
  Introduction to Wikipedia
  The five pillars of Wikipedia
  Editing tutorial
  How to edit a page
  Simplified Manual of Style
  The basics of Wikicode
  How to develop an article
  How to create an article
  Help pages
  What Wikipedia is not
Some common sense Do's and Don'ts:
  Do be bold
  Do assume good faith
  Do be civil
  Do keep cool!
  Do maintain a neutral point of view
  Don't spam
  Don't infringe copyright
  Don't edit where you have a conflict of interest
  Don't vandalize
  Don't get blocked
If you need further help, you can:
  Ask a question
or even:
  Ask an experienced editor to "adopt" you

Alternatively, leave me a message at my talk page or type {{helpme}} here on your talk page, and someone will try to help.

There are many ways you can contribute to Wikipedia. Here are a few ideas:
  Fight vandalism
  Be a WikiFairy or a WikiGnome
  Help contribute to articles
           
  Perform maintenance tasks
  Become a member of a project that interests you
  Help design new templates

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.

The best way to learn about something is to experience it. Explore, learn, contribute, and don't forget to have some fun!
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.

Editing your user page

[edit]

Ljbriner, I get the impression that you thought you had edited your user page, but I'm not seeing anything. Maybe you need to edit it and click on "Save page" below the editing box. The template on this talk page above has a link for "How to edit a page." Maybe that will help!!! Welcome to Wikipedia and have fun! Crtew (talk) 01:37, 26 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Ljbriner, Edit your user page. Perhaps you didn't save it. Write a short introduction about yourself for the Wikipedia community and list a few of your interests.Crtew (talk) 19:11, 26 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The "old" sandbox problem

[edit]

Ljbriner, I'm glad you asked a Wikipedian online for help. You're resourceful! I know you had some problems but on the bright side, you did learn about Wikipedia. Your bio is awesome and you used links! Good work, Crtew (talk) 21:47, 28 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome to Wikipedia: check out the Teahouse!

Teahouse logo
Hello! Ljbriner, you are invited to the Teahouse, a forum on Wikipedia for new editors to ask questions about editing Wikipedia, and get support from peers and experienced editors. Please join us!
I, and the rest of the hosts, would be more than happy to answer any questions you have! SarahStierch (talk) 16:12, 2 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Assignment

[edit]

Although I have listed your assignment (see your user page), there may be a problem because human rights organizations like Article 19 are calling into question whether they were journalists. Knight Center blog Crtew (talk) 04:45, 4 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation

[edit]
Thank you for your recent submission to Articles for Creation. Your article submission has been reviewed. Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. Please view your submission to see the comments left by the reviewer. You are welcome to edit the submission to address the issues raised, and resubmit once you feel they have been resolved.
It's great that you're working ahead on your article! However, you are not close to ready for submission. The article lacks a notability statement and any improvement on the infobox, which was your assignment this week. Significant portions of the article are missing. The text is at a notes stage and needs clean up and inline citations. The article has bare links, which is unacceptable. The map needs more work. No categories have been suggested. I moved your article to User:Ljbriner/2012 Michoacán murder of photographers. You should submit later when you have improved the entire article and brought it up to a satisfactory level. We'll be doing this in class to make it clearer what is expected. To make it easier, I will tell you when to submit. Thanks, Crtew (talk) 03:57, 17 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Notability and infobox

[edit]

No progress on either. Crtew (talk) 00:13, 1 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Jatapley Peer Review

[edit]

I really like how you have made sure to fill in each section. It gives it a full effect. For the most part, good content. I would suggest solidifying facts, such as year of birth (I saw there was a question mark by it). Also, I would look at all of the red links because they don't have pages attached to them. Besides that, I think you're off to a great start. Keep going! Jatapley (talk) 00:54, 25 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation
