Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions, such as the ones you made to Karin Schnass. I hope you like the place and decide to stay.

Here are some links to pages you may find useful:

You don't have to log in to read or edit articles on Wikipedia, but if you wish to acquire additional privileges, you can simply create a named account. It's free, requires no personal information, and lets you:

Note that in order for the first three features to be available, you must have had an account for a certain number of days and made a certain number of edits.

If you edit without using a named account, your IP address (138.232.236.14) is used to identify you instead.

I hope that you, as a Wikipedian, decide to continue contributing to our project: an encyclopedia of human knowledge that anyone can edit. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, or you can click here to ask for help on your talk page, and a volunteer should respond shortly. We also have an intuitive guide on editing if you're interested. By the way, please make sure to sign and date your talk page comments with four tildes (~~~~).

Happy editing! valereee (talk) 11:22, 2 March 2019 (UTC)Reply

Hi, Karin! I wanted to let you know that you or someone else can upload a photo you'd prefer and ask on the article's talk page for it to be used. It has to be a photo uploaded by the copyright holder -- you could upload a selfie, or a friend could upload a photo they have taken of you -- or a photo which is already in the public domain (for instance, in the US this would include official government portraits). If you go to this page you can upload a photo. Let me know if you do.

I'm sorry the page embarrasses you. Many editors actively search for people they feel are notable enough for a page but aren't yet included. It's an imperfect process. For Wikipedia, the fact other subjects who are just as or even more notable don't yet have pages isn't considered relevant to whether or not this subject is notable enough. It just means WP needs to also include them. You can absolutely suggest other people you feel deserve a page more than you do, and there's a good likelihood that someone will create those articles. Or you can create such articles yourself; even a page simply stating, "X is an Austrian mathematician" with three bare URLs proving significant coverage in reliable sources will get a page started. valereee (talk) 11:43, 2 March 2019 (UTC)Reply
