May 2019 edit
Hello, I'm Orville1974. An edit that you recently made to Dover, New Jersey seemed to be a test and has been removed. If you want to practice editing, please use the sandbox. If you think a mistake was made, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks! Orville1974 (talk) 17:06, 26 May 2019 (UTC)
Welcome! edit
Hello, HappyToLearn, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions.
I noticed that one of the first articles you created or edited appears to be an article about yourself. Creating an autobiography is a common mistake made by new Wikipedians—as this is an encyclopedia, we wouldn't expect to have an article about every contributor. Your user page, however, is a great place to write about yourself, making sure to stay within user page guidelines. Just click your user name at the top of the screen when you are logged in, and edit it normally.
The page you created about yourself may well be deleted from the encyclopedia. If it is deleted and you wish to retrieve its contents, don't hesitate to ask anyone from this list and they will copy it to your user page. If your contributions to an existing article about yourself are undone and you wish to add to it, please propose the changes on its talk page.
Here are some pages that you might find helpful:
- The five pillars of Wikipedia
- Contributing to Wikipedia
- Tutorial
- How to edit a page and How to develop articles
- How to create your first article (using the Article Wizard if you wish)
- Simplified Manual of Style
I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your messages on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically insert your username and the date. 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. Again, welcome!

Authoring an article edit
Welcome, again to Wikipedia. I saw you were requesting help on adding Bedoya to the list of notable people from Dover. Before you add her, you will need to author an article about her using independent third-party sources demonstrating her notability. There are some links above to help you get started, and here are a couple more: Wikipedia:Your first article and Wikipedia:Notability (people). Good luck and happy editing!

Help Me edit
 | Hello HappyToLearn. You used the {{Help me}} template, but you wanted an answer from a specific editor. If you still need help, please add your question to that editor's talk page instead. Alternatively, you can ask your question at the Teahouse, the help desk, or join Wikipedia's Live Help IRC channel to get real-time assistance. |
Hello, I just got a message about creating an edit about myself which was not correct. I edited an article about an influencer however I wasn't sure where to include links to sources. However, anyone who looks up the influencer I mentioned will find the information I wrote. Here is one site https://www.famousbirthdays.com/people/isabel-bedoya.html
