Hello, CaitlinIsely, 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.

Arabia

edit

Hello my friend. I'm sorry I had to revert your edit on Arabia (steamboat) because it is essentially redundant to what's already in the article just above it and in Arabia Steamboat Museum, it isn't cited by a WP:RS, and it would have needed some editing of WP:TONE and formatting anyway. Part of it was cited by the museum's website, which I removed as a non-WP:RS and as a WP:ELNO. I see you just started on Wikipedia under school assignment, and I am at your disposal to help with anything.

I took the opportunity to do some minor improvements anyway. FYI, in case you're interested, I have researched those newspaper articles at the Lexington Weekly Express and the Daily Missouri Democrat, and can't find a copy of them. Nobody at Wikipedia's reference desk can find them. I'll go to the museum and ask the owners if they have them because they are essential.

Ok so I'm sorry, and please try again, and let me know if I can help. — Smuckola(talk) 01:30, 21 April 2024 (UTC)Reply
