Hello, Jenni Farley, 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) 15:22, 19 September 2022 (UTC)Reply

  Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Femme. Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been or will be reverted.

Please ensure you are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, and please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive. Continued disruptive editing may result in loss of editing privileges. Reason: Re-addition of content based on source considered unreliable under WP:RELIABLE policy. Pyxis Solitary (yak).

Addition: I am aware that you are a student who created your account on 19 September 2022, and as such are probably inexperienced with Wikipedia policies and guidelines ... but all content in Wikipedia articles must comply with WP:RELIABLE and WP:NPOV. You created a subsection in Femme based on your interpretation of the glossary of an unreliable source and I removed it on 03:13, 22 November 2022; you reverted the removal on 23:32, 27 November 2022; I had to revert your re-addition on 23:11, 28 November 2022. The source self-describes as "We are passionate students of ball and house culture and work to create spaces for collective liberation in our communities" and is user created content. Therefore, it cannot be accepted as a reliable source. If you want to include information about this type of ballroom culture you must find published sources considered reliable by Wikipedia standards. Before you push the envelope on the threshold: please do not engage in edit warring over enforcement of Wikipedia policies. Thank you. Pyxis Solitary (yak). L not Q. 23:46, 28 November 2022 (UTC)Reply
