Hello, CWilson11 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! SPF121188 (talk this way) (contribs) 16:31, 25 October 2022 (UTC)Reply

Hello, CWilson11, 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.

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me on my talk page. Ian (Wiki Ed) (talk) 19:40, 31 October 2022 (UTC)Reply

  Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to add unsourced or poorly sourced content, you may be blocked from editing. --VVikingTalkEdits 20:31, 12 December 2022 (UTC)Reply

I have sources for my edits, and have had them approved for a class I am taking. I have to publish them individually but they will all be complete and cited in the end. CWilson11 (talk) 20:37, 12 December 2022 (UTC)Reply

  You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you add unsourced or poorly sourced material to Wikipedia. --VVikingTalkEdits 20:36, 12 December 2022 (UTC)Reply

Can I be allowed to make my changes without you removing them? CWilson11 (talk) 20:42, 12 December 2022 (UTC)Reply
I am not going to engage in an Edit War with you, however you are very close to getting a block for disruptive editing for not following policy and process. This will not help you with your class. I recommend reverting your edit until you have a Reliable Source that you can add.--VVikingTalkEdits 20:46, 12 December 2022 (UTC)Reply
Hi, I have also just reverted your addition of unsourced content. I didn't know that you are a student editor - but the same standards apply; please do not add unsourced material. If you have the sources (and they are reliable), please add them at the time you insert the new content. Referencing for beginners may help. Thanks. Tacyarg (talk) 21:01, 12 December 2022 (UTC)Reply
