On a final note, you may want to try the new (beta) VisualEditor, check out our weekly newspaper, the Wikipedia Signpost, and join a WikiProject of interest to you. WikiProjects gather editors interested in certain topic areas, providing them with information, tools and a place to discuss the topic in question. . For a list of all WikiProjects, see here. Joining a WikiProject makes the Wikipedia experience much richer! Chris Troutman (talk) 17:00, 26 August 2017 (UTC)Reply

Hi

edit

I'm a grad student at Pitt and I noticed your edit at DGG's talk page. If you need any in-person help with editing, feel free to let me know. We have a small editor community here in Pittsburgh and we could help you sort your effort. Barbara (WVS)‎ is a Wikipedia Visiting Scholar at Pitt and you might reach out to her, as well.

Hi Chris. Thanks for the offer. We will likely need help--using this interface is even a challenge. Since DGG took down the page, we probably need to wait for his response or we might once again waste a lot of time and effort only to have it deleted. Once we make sure we have the leeway to work on it, I will reach out again. Thanks Terry Irwin (talk) 17:15, 26 August 2017 (UTC)Terry IrwinReply
