Hello, Taylorxfrankel and welcome to Wikipedia! It appears you are participating in a class project. If you haven't done so already, we encourage you to go through our training for students. Go through our online training for students

If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or ask your question on this page and then place {{Help me}} before the question. Please also read this helpful advice for students.

Before you create an article, make sure you understand what kind of articles are accepted here. Remember: Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, and while many topics are encyclopedic, some things are not.

Your instructor or professor may wish to set up a course page, and if your class doesn't already have one please tell your instructor about that. It is highly recommended that you place this text: {{Educational assignment}} on the talk page of any articles you are working on as part of your Wikipedia-related course assignment. This will let other editors know this article is a subject of an educational assignment and aid your communication with them.

We hope you like it here and encourage you to stay even after your assignment is finished! TJH2018 talk 18:12, 24 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, Taylorxfrankel, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Adam and I work with the Wiki Education Foundation; 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.

Word to the wise: don't just revert without explaining why. The editor you reverted has been here for a decade. Another word to the wise: this edit summary is incorrect. That's not all you did, and it certainly wasn't a minor edit. My advice to you is to make more minor and concentrated changes, with good explanations in your edit summaries. Incorrect edit summaries accompanying huge changes, unexplained reverts--that only creates irritation. I think the best thing to do right now is to revert your own revert, and reinstating some of your edits individually, one section at a time--you can do this easily by clicking on that version in the article history and copying that text, and then inserting it in the regular edit window. You don't have to do this, but it's a good way to show your good faith. Cagwinn, this is a new editor, a student; let's try and help them out. Drmies (talk) 02:05, 21 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Information icon Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Cornish language. Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been or will be reverted or removed.

  • If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor then please discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page. Alternatively you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant notice boards.
  • If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, please seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.

Please ensure you are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, and please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive, until the dispute is resolved through consensus. Continuing to edit disruptively could result in loss of editing privileges. Thank you. ···日本穣 · 投稿 · Talk to Nihonjoe · Join WP Japan! 16:54, 21 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Your changes will be graded even if they don't stick

[edit]

Hi, Taylorxfrankel. I'm the Wiki Ed content expert for your course. Editors are concerned about your edits to an article, but largely because they're worried you'll try to keep inserting the material before you've worked out the feedback they're trying to give you. Your changes do not need to stick for you to get credit. I can send a note to your instructor and show them how to see your edits in the article history.

In the meantime, you don't need to engage in the AN/I discussion and if you stop editing the article you won't be in any trouble. Adam (Wiki Ed) (talk) 17:00, 21 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

If I misunderstood what happened, or if you have any questions, you can leave a message on my operator's talk page.
