Welcome!

Hello, Erika813, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Shalor 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.

Redirecting page:Japanese South_Africans

edit

A page you created, Japanese South_Africans, does not seem to have enough reliable third party sources to merit inclusion in the encyclopedia in itself. It has been redirected to Japanese people in South Africa which is related to the subject of the article.MJLTalk 00:35, 29 April 2019 (UTC)Reply

Oh woops, sorry! That was an automatic message. I redirected the article to Japanese people in South Africa for simple attribution reasons. The article almost entirely reflects your contributions to the subject now. Thank you so much for your excellent prose!! :D –MJLTalk 00:38, 29 April 2019 (UTC)Reply
  • Hi! Thank you MJL! Erika813, it looks like there was an existing page that dealt with the same topic so MJL merged the two pages together. Make sure to be careful to ensure that there isn't an existing topic area. That said, I can see where this happened since the existing article title may not be a search phrase that the average person may use on Wikipedia. In the end there's no harm done since the pages were merged, so no worries! Shalor (Wiki Ed) (talk) 20:43, 30 April 2019 (UTC)Reply
