Welcome new user edit
Hello, User:Jmansbridge, I see you've opened an account and begun to make edits to the encyclopaedia in 2008 but have never received an official welcome. Let me correct that and say you are most welcome and thank you for the many constructive edits you have made .
I'm Lumos3, one of the numerous editors here. I voluntarily work as a welcomer to newcomers. I'm posting below a standard welcome box with lots of useful links. I hope you get pleasure from editing and making Wikipedia an even better resource for the community.
Wikipedia encourages new members to jump in and make corrections and contributions to articles. I found the Be bold guideline particularly encouraging when I was getting started. I also found the Wikipedia:Cheatsheet a useful quick reference for editing the source text but our new VisualEditor makes editing much easier (This needs to be turned on in your user preferences under beta features).
I myself have come to the conclusion that editing or watching a topic is a great way to learn about it in depth and stay on top of current developments in a field. If you have any questions about the project don't hesitate to contact me on my talk page here :- User_talk:Lumos3.
Happy editing, I hope you continue to develop and improve our encyclopedia.

Remember to always sign your posts on talk pages. You can do this either by clicking on the 
button on the edit toolbar or by typing four tildes (~~~~) at the end of your post. This will automatically insert your signature, a link to this (your talk) page, and a timestamp.
To get some practice editing you can use a sandbox. You can create your own private sandbox for use any time. Perfect for working on bigger projects. Then for easy access in the future, you can put
{{My sandbox}} on your user page. By the way, seeing as you haven't created a user page yet, simply click here to start it.Your question edit

Your draft article, Draft:Melissa Williams edit
Hello, Jmansbridge. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Melissa Williams".
In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been nominated for deletion. If you plan on working on it further, or editing it to address the issues raised if it was declined, simply and remove the {{db-afc}}, {{db-draft}}, or {{db-g13}} code.
If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by following the instructions at this link. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.
Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. HasteurBot (talk) 02:01, 29 April 2018 (UTC)
