Hello, Bwill31797, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Ian and I work with Wiki Education; 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.

Political Thought

edit

Hi I see you’ve created a new article, Political Thought. It seems to be a biography of John Dickinson. Would a better title be “Political thought of John Dickinson” and would you like me to move it to that title? All the best Mccapra (talk) 20:35, 5 December 2020 (UTC)Reply

I made a mistake. I didn't mean to make a new article. I was trying to edit his page for my grad class. I thought it was going to move it over to John Dickinson's page. Still learning how to navigate Wikipedia. I thought there was a way to send my work from the sandbox to the actual Wikipedia page. It didn't work out for me. I learned how to do the visual editor on the page, but had to change my preferences.

Ah, ok. So you want this to be a section in the John Dickinson article? In that case, I’ll create a new section for you there and you can add your material under that. If you get stuck, just leave a message here and I’ll help you. Mccapra (talk) 04:21, 6 December 2020 (UTC)Reply

ok just checked and I see you’ve already done it. In that case I’ll propose the mistaken article creation for deletion. All the best Mccapra (talk) 04:23, 6 December 2020 (UTC)Reply

Thank you so much.
