Welcome!

Hello, Rdery, 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.

When working on microplastics and ghost nets...

Hi Rdery, welcome to Wikipedia and good luck with your student assignment! If you're interested in microplastics in oceans, please note this content has now been moved to plastic soup (we'll change the name of that article soon). So any new content about microplastics in oceans should be added there, not in the microplastics article. I can also see potential overlap between ghost net and plastic soup and marine debris so if you are adding content about "ghost nets" have a think about in which article it fits best or how the different articles should fit together as puzzle pieces.
