[edit]

Hi I-ready Fan, welcome to Wikipedia! Check outWikipedia:User pagesto learn about user pages. It's a spot where you can write something about yourself if you like, so that other editors can get a sense of your interests and perspective. You can see my user page here:User:Dreamyshade.I use it to tell fellow editors a little bit about me and show off some work here that I'm proud of. User pages are entirely optional. Please let me know if you have other questions, happy to try to help.

And thank you for making a few contributions already! I just wanted to give a couple of tips to help with your next edits. Inyour edit here,the cited source (the page athttps://gallowayus /project/west-lake-junior-high-school/) says the project is supposed to finish in August 2023. This means that we can't just update the date in the text without finding a new published source for the information. It's good to use personal knowledge to identify that something is incorrect or outdated, but for example, a better way to address that problem would be to remove the outdated information from the article. Inyour edit here,another editor reverted the edit with a note I wanted to point out in case you missed it: "reference to clearly identified wikipedia mirror perWP:CIRCULAR".

It often takes some time to learn the details of editing Wikipedia, so I'd encourage not getting discouraged by corrections or reverted edits, just good to learn from them.Dreamyshade(talk)00:26, 17 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Nice work to find a better source onWest Lake Junior High!Looks like you added a reference as a URL, which is fine, but you can also add details about the source to help readers in case the link breaks. Check out the step-by-step guide here:Help:Introduction to referencing with VisualEditor/1.Let me know if you have any questions.Dreamyshade(talk)15:58, 10 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Mirrors

[edit]

Information iconThanks for contributing to the articleHunter High School.However, one of Wikipedia's core policies is that material must beverifiableand attributed toreliable sources.You have recently used citations which copied, ormirrored,material from Wikipedia. This leads to acircular referenceand is not acceptable. Most mirrors are clearly labeled as such, but some are in violation of our license and do not provide the correct attribution. Please help by adding alternate sources to the article you edited! If you need any help or clarification, you can look atHelp:Contents/Editing Wikipediaor ask atWikipedia:New contributors' help page,or just ask me. Thank you.SamKuru(talk)00:32, 2 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Infoboxes

[edit]

Hi! Check outHelp:Infoboxfor background info and instructions. It might help to try some experiments inyour sandbox page,such as copying-and-pasting an existing infobox and modifying it, since infobox formatting can be a little tricky.Dreamyshade(talk)23:15, 3 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
