editHello, I'm Quinto Simmaco. I noticed that you recently removed some content from Ananda Marga without explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an accurate edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry; I restored the removed content. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. I wasn't actually the one who reverted your edits, but I agree. In the future, you need to explain blanking of entire sections, and removal of long-standing sourced material.

There are many ways you can contribute to Wikipedia. Here are a few ideas:

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.Sincerely, Quinto Simmaco (talk) 11:06, 21 March 2015 (UTC) (Leave me a message)

Prsnys, I'll address everything you said on my talk page shortly, when I'm a bit more freed up. In the meantime, here's a slightly easier to navigate welcome menu with things relevant to getting started in Wikipedia. You should especially check out "What Wikipedia is not", and this link here on conflict of interest issues. You can still edit those articles with which you have a close association, but just follow the guidelines there. :) Also, while there's a more detailed editing tutorial in the welcome menu (on the lefthand side), I'll post a more basic one below this comment. I'll also leave you a message here when I respond to your individual questions on my talkpage. :) Happy editing, and welcome to Wikipedia. Quinto Simmaco (talk) 11:06, 21 March 2015 (UTC)
