University Main Library training session 28.04.2016 edit
Hello again, RichardSSS!
Thank you so much for taking part in the training session the other day. I hope that you enjoyed it and that we'll see you on Wiki again soon.
Now that you've learned the basics of editing using Wikipedia’s Visual Editor, I hope that you'll stay logged in and edit or create more articles. I've added some booklets and some links below that you may find useful. Sorry we ran out of time but I'm very happy to discuss anything you care to know about via email or in person.

If you're not feeling bold enough to write an (other) article straight away, why not try a small edit first, or adding a link? Don't worry about being perfect, Wiki is a constantly evolving entity. Fortunately there's a whole team of editors just like you who can help.
You can't break Wikipedia, but in case you're still nervous here are some pages that you might find helpful, especially the first one which covers the main things to remember about using Visual Editor.
- Visual Editor user guide
- Is your topic notable enough for an article?
- Be Bold!
- Don't let grumpy users scare you off.
- Learn from others
- How to write a great article
- A simplified manual of style
The University of Edinburgh are also looking into running lots more edit-a-thons over the course of the residency – details are still to be confirmed but will be updated on my project page here: Wikipedia:University_of_Edinburgh
I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian!

Just to make you aware that there will be a Wikipedia Social Meet at the National Library of Scotland on the evening of Thursday 5th May if you'd be interested? Full details here.
If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or place {{helpme}} on your talk page and ask your question there. See you soon! Stinglehammer (talk) 20:49, 28 April 2016 (UTC)

Ways to improve Otta F Swire edit
Thanks for creating Otta F Swire.
A New Page Patroller Rosguill just tagged the page as having some issues to fix, and wrote this note for you:
Just needs some minor copyediting. I'm not sure that the section about fairy cows is really appropriate for inclusion in the article.
The tags can be removed by you or another editor once the issues they mention are addressed. If you have questions, you can reply over here and ping me. Or, for broader editing help, you can talk to the volunteers at the Teahouse.
Delivered via the Page Curation tool, on behalf of the reviewer.
