Welcome! edit

Hello, Cfitch5, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Ian 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.

Mayfly edit

Hi, and welcome to Wikipedia. I've seen your proposed changes to Mayfly, and agree there is room in the Ecology section of that article for a suitably cited mention of their role in bioturbation. I do not agree, however, that this ecological aspect merits both a new section and a reorganisation of all the human-facing aspects of the topic, so I have undone your edit. If you would like to find a reliable source and add a reference to it in the same style as the existing references in the article, then feel free to add back the sentence or perhaps a brief paragraph on the subject, under Ecology. All the best, Chiswick Chap (talk) 08:22, 22 February 2016 (UTC)Reply

Hi Chiswick Chap, I agree with your comments to this student, and I have made these changes that you suggest, and moved some of the other material to the sections on "In human culture" where appropriate. Thanks! --Cprather3 (talk) 02:29, 24 February 2016 (UTC)Reply
