Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions, such as the ones you made to Luke O'Nien. I hope you like the place and decide to stay.

You don't have to log in to read or edit articles on Wikipedia, but if you wish to acquire additional privileges, you can simply create a named account. It's free, requires no personal information, and lets you:

Note that in order for the first three features to be available, you must have had an account for a minimum number of days and made a minimum number of edits.

If you edit without using a named account, your IP address (51.6.138.109) is used to identify you instead.

I hope that you, as a Wikipedian, decide to continue contributing to our project: an encyclopedia of human knowledge that anyone can edit. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, or you can click here to ask for help on your talk page, and a volunteer should respond shortly. We also have an intuitive guide on editing if you're interested. By the way, please make sure to sign and date your talk page comments with four tildes (~~~~).

Happy editing! Mattythewhite (talk) 21:46, 1 April 2020 (UTC)Reply

Edit summaries

Hi, I’m Neiltonks (talk · contribs). Thanks for your edits to Wikipedia so far, and I hope you stay around. As an experienced editor here, can I give you a little friendly advice? Please don’t use edit summaries like ‘fixed childish writing’, which could be seen as aggressive, or dismissive of the efforts of other editors. It creates ill-feeling and is unnecessary. Concentrate on what you’ve done to improve the article not on what you think was wrong with other edits. That way, we all get along better and contributing is a rewarding experience for everyone. Happy editing!! Neiltonks (talk) 22:12, 1 April 2020 (UTC)Reply

If you want the quality of the encyclopaedia to improve, you have to point out its failings. When I see infantile writing that has no place here, I say so. The only people who will be upset by this are the contributors of substandard text, who we can obviously live without. 51.6.138.109 (talk) 22:14, 1 April 2020 (UTC)Reply
